Clinical summary

Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter, multinational, Phase 2 study exploring the efficacy and safety of neratinib therapy in patients with solid tumors with activating HER2, HER3 or EGFR mutations or with EGFR gene amplification. The trial will consist of a screening period, a treatment period, and an end-of-treatment visit occurring when neratinib is discontinued for any reason, a safety-follow-up visit occurring 28 to 42 days after the last dose of neratinib and a survival follow-up period lasting for a maximum of 12 months for each patient after their last dose of neratinib or until initiation of additional anti-cancer therapy. Treatment will consist of neratinib 240 mg by mouth with food once daily.

Conditions

This trial is treating people with advanced cancers that express HER2, HER3 or EGFR mutations
