Paclitaxel and Ramucirumab +/- Zanidatamab in HER2 Postive Advanced Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma
brief summary
This study is being done to answer the following question: Can the chance of gastroesophageal cancer growing or spreading be lowered by adding a drug called zanidatamab to the usual combination of drugs? We are doing this study because we want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for this type of cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for gastroesophageal cancer
detailed description
The purpose of this study is to compare the usual approach alone to using zanidatamab plus the usual approach. The addition of zanidatamab to the usual approach could shrink cancer. But, it could also cause side effects.
This study will help the study doctors find out if this different approach is better than the usual approach. To decide if it is better, the study doctors will be looking to see if adding zanidatamab to the usual approach reduces the risk of cancer getting worse by at least 37% compared to the usual approach.
