[Management of ocular adverse events associated with antibody-drug conjugates in the treatment of solid tumors: a consensus statement from Chinese experts (2025 edition)].

In recent years, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have achieved remarkable progress in the treatment of solid tumors and are now widely applied in malignancies such as breast cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, urothelial carcinoma, and non-small cell lung cancer, demonstrating favorable clinical efficacy. However, with their expanding clinical use, safety challenges associated with ADCs have become increasingly apparent. Among these, ocular adverse events have received limited attention in the past but is now emerging as a clinically relevant concern, as it may impair patients' quality of life and necessitate treatment modifications. Due to differences in payloads, target specificity, and mechanisms of action, various ADCs may induce ocular adverse events, including corneal disorders such as dry eye and keratoconjunctivitis, which can lead to visual disturbances, diminished quality of life, and reduced treatment adherence. Consequently, appropriate preventive and management strategies are urgently needed in clinical practice. To address this gap, and based on the latest international and domestic clinical evidence as well as multidisciplinary expert experience in oncology and ophthalmology, a Chinese expert consensus was developed following extensive discussion. This consensus aims to enhance clinicians' awareness of ADC-associated ocular adverse events, promote the safe application of ADCs in the treatment of solid tumors, and ultimately improve patients' quality of life and therapeutic outcomes.
