Testing Afatinib as Potentially Targeted Treatment in Cancers With EGFR Genetic Changes (MATCH - Subprotocol A) (NCT06385483)
MATCH Treatment Subprotocol A: Phase II Trial of Afatinib in Patients With Solid Tumors (Other Than Small Cell and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer) or Lymphomas, That Have Activating Mutations of EGFR and Have Progressed After Standard Treatment
๐ฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well afatinib works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes. Afatinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It is used in patients whose cancer has a certain mutation (change) in the EGFR gene. It works by blocking the action of mutated EGFR that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps to stop or slow the spread of cancer cells.
