New hope for Hard-to-Treat colorectal cancer: targeted drug combo enters human trials
NCT ID NCT07653685
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new drug called TQB2930, which targets the HER2 protein on cancer cells, combined with standard chemotherapy and possibly another drug (bevacizumab). The goal is to find the safest and most effective dose and see if it shrinks tumors in people with advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. About 71 participants aged 18-75 with HER2-positive disease will take part.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TQB2930 injection (a drug targeting HER2 protein on cancer cells) combined with chemotherapy (oxaliplatin, capecitabine) and possibly bevacizumab
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option for people with HER2-positive advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to other therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 71 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug combination may cause side effects or not shrink tumors as hoped.
