Mechanism of action

Pertuzumab targets the extracellular domain II of HER2, preventing ligand-induced heterodimerization of HER2 with HER3 and other HER family members. This dual mechanism—direct HER2 blockade combined with prevention of HER2-HER3 signaling—leads to reduced phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway activation, resulting in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in HER2-overexpressing tumors.
