Terminated trial tests cancer drug for rare, aggressive tumors

NCT ID NCT04042714

Summary

This study tested whether an existing cancer drug called TAS-102 could help patients with a rare, aggressive form of neuroendocrine cancer that starts outside the lungs. The trial enrolled 14 patients who had already tried platinum-based chemotherapy, aiming to see if TAS-102 could slow tumor growth and extend survival. The study was terminated early, and results were not widely reported.
