New hope for hard-to-treat colon cancer: targeted drug shrinks tumors
NCT ID NCT04744831
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a drug called trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in 122 people with advanced colorectal cancer that has too much HER2 protein. The goal was to see if the drug could shrink tumors. About 45% of patients had their tumors shrink. This treatment is not a cure, but it may help control the disease for a while.
