New drug trial targets Tough-to-Treat uterine cancer

NCT ID NCT02491099

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug afatinib can help control a specific type of aggressive uterine cancer that has returned or persisted after previous treatments. It will enroll about 50 women whose cancer tests positive for a protein called HER2. The main goal is to see if patients can live without their cancer getting worse for at least six months after starting the medication.
