Smart bomb drug trial targets tough cancers with genetic flaw

NCT ID NCT04439110

Summary

This trial is testing a targeted drug called ado-trastuzumab emtansine for patients with advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change called HER2 amplification. The drug is designed to find cancer cells with the HER2 marker and deliver chemotherapy directly to them. The study aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors or stop their growth in patients whose cancers have not responded to other treatments.
