  • Research summary

    Summary of Research
    This clinical study proposes evaluation of tucatinib, trastuzumab, ramucirumab, and paclitaxel for patients with HER2 overexpressing or amplified gastric cancers. The safety profile of tucatinib combined with trastuzumab is understood through previous clinical experience in different tumour types. A cautious initial evaluation of the safety and tolerability of tucatinib and trastuzumab combined with ramucirumab and paclitaxel will be undertaken. The potential benefit of the combination outweighs the risks, and evaluation of this combination is expected to provide opportunity for clinical benefit in the study population.
