DS-8201a in HER2-positive Gastric Cancer That Cannot Be Surgically Removed or Has Spread (DESTINY-Gastric02)

March 26, 2025 updated by: Daiichi Sankyo

A Phase 2, Open-label, Single-arm Trial of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (DS 8201a) in HER2-positive, Unresectable or Metastatic Gastric or Gastro-esophageal Junction (GEJ) Adenocarcinoma Subjects Who Have Progressed on or After a Trastuzumab-containing Regimen (DESTINY-Gastric02)

This study will find out if trastuzumab deruxtecan is safe and works for participants with gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer.

They must have human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive gastric or gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) cancer:

  • that cannot be removed surgically
  • that has moved to other parts of the body
  • that got worse during or after treatment that included trastuzumab

The study will enroll about 80 participants. Sites will be in North America and the European Union.

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
