Scientists have uncovered new details about how cells manage the distribution of lipids in their cell membrane. These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating entry and exit of certain molecules to maintain a stable internal environment.

The findings, from an international clinical trial, reinforce earlier findings of the benefits of the drug -- trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), an antibody-drug conjugate -- in these patients, trial leaders say.
