Published: December 2024

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a new and emerging category of oncologic treatments that combine the target specificity of a monoclonal antibody with a cytotoxic payload. These drugs are associated with unique cutaneous toxicities that vary across agents. Currently, there are eleven ADCs with regulatory approval for solid and liquid tumors and over 80 ADCs currently in clinical development, it is critical for dermatologists to recognize and appropriately mitigate the cutaneous toxicities associated with these therapies. This clinical review will summarize the novel mechanisms and indications of approved ADCs, discuss dermatologic toxicities demonstrated in clinical trials and postmarketing studies, and impart recognition and management guidance when encountering these reactions to help maintain patients safely and comfortably on their medications.
