Experimental HER2 drug trial halted early – what it means

NCT ID NCT05013554

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tested an experimental drug called SAR443216 in 44 adults with advanced HER2-expressing solid tumors (such as breast, lung, or gastric cancer) that had come back or stopped responding to standard treatments. The study aimed to find a safe dose and check for early signs of tumor shrinkage. However, the trial was terminated, so full results are not available.

What this could mean

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with HER2-expressing solid tumors that have stopped responding to other therapies.

What could go wrong
