Trial of ZW25 (Zanidatamab) in Patients With Advanced HER2-expressing Cancers

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2022-03-31
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This is a first-in-human, 3-part study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of ZW25 (zanidatamab) by itself and combined with selected chemotherapy agents in patients with locally advanced (unresectable) and/or metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-expressing cancers. This study will also the evaluate the way the body absorbs, distributes, and eliminates ZW25 (pharmacokinetics or PK).

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No
