ÖZET
 Kontrolsüz hücre bölünmesi sonucu gelişen kanser günümüzün başta gelen hastalıklarından biridir. Görülme sıklığı ve kanser kaynaklı ölümler göz önünde bulundurulduğunda kanserin gün geçtikçe daha da yaygınlaştığı görülmektedir. Kanser tedavisinde cerrahi operasyon, kemoterapi, radyoterapi gibi geleneksel tedavi yöntemlerinin yanı sıra; tirozin kinaz inhibitörleri, kanser aşıları, gen tedavisi ve monoklonal antikorlar aracılığıyla hedefe yönelik tedavi yaklaşımı da son zamanlarda oldukça önem kazanmıştır. Günümüz tedavi protokollerinde hızla kendine yer bulan monoklonal antikor tedavisi, bu hedefe yönelik tedavi yaklaşımlarının başında gelmektedir. Monoklonal antikorlar, diğer kanser türlerinin yanı sıra, her üç kadından birinde gelişme riski bulunan ve en yaygın görülen kanser türlerinden olan meme kanserinde de kullanılmaktadır. Meme kanseri moleküler ve histolojik açıdan, hormon ve büyüme faktörü reseptör ekspresyonuna göre değerlendirildiğinde; hormon reseptör pozitif, insan epidermal büyüme faktörü reseptörü 2 pozitif ve üçlü negatif meme kanseri olarak üç farklı grup altında incelenmektedir. Monoklonal antikorlar hedefe spesifik oldukları için standart kemoterapiye göre daha tolere edilebilir bir sitotoksisite profili göstermektedir. Bu sayede monoklonal antikorlar her üç meme kanseri türünün tedavisi açısından oldukça önem kazanmış ve yeni bir dönemin başlamasına katkıda bulunmuştur. Sahip oldukları yan etki profilleri ve henüz gün yüzüne çıkmayan olumsuz etkileri gözetilerek kanıta dayalı bir şekilde ve tedavinin takip edilerek uygulanmasıyla birlikte önemli sonuçlar elde edileceği düşünülmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Meme kanseri; monoklonal antikorlar; immünoterapi
ABSTRACT
 Cancer, which develops as a result of uncontrolled cell division, is one of the most leading diseases of today. Considering the incidence and deaths caused by cancer, it seems that cancer is becoming more common day by day. Besides traditional treatment methods such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, Targeted treatment approach through tyrosine kinase inhibitors, cancer vaccines, gene therapy and monoclonal antibodies has also gained great importance recently. Monoclonal antibody treatment, which is rapidly finding its place in today's treatment protocols, is one of the leading targeted treatment approaches. Monoclonal antibodies are also used in breast cancer, which is one of the most common cancer types, which has a risk of develini in one out of every three women, as well as other types of cancer. When breast cancer is evaluated molecularly and histologically and according to hormone and growth factor receptor expression; It is classified under three different major groups as hormone receptor positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive and triple negative breast cancer. Because monoclonal antibodies are target specific, they show a more tolerable cytotoxicity profile than standard chemotherapy. In this way, monoclonal antibodies gained great importance in terms of the treatment of all three types of breast cancer and contributed to start a new era. It is thought that important results will be achieved if the treatment is followed and applied in an evidence-based manner, taking into account the side effect profiles they have and the negative effects that have not yet come to light.
