New Two-Drug attack on rare salivary gland cancers shows promise

NCT ID NCT04325828

Summary

This study is testing whether a drug called apalutamide, when given with a hormone-blocking injection, can shrink tumors in people with advanced salivary gland cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has spread or returned and whose tumors test positive for a specific protein called the androgen receptor. The main goal is to see how many participants' tumors shrink in response to this combination treatment.
