- You have a known serious allergy to sacituzumab tirumotecan or similar biological medicines.
- You have an autoimmune disease (where the immune system attacks the body) that has needed treatment in the past 2 years.
- You have a history of serious lung inflammation (pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease) that required steroid treatment, or you currently have this condition.
