Full Title
A Phase 2 Study of DS-8201a (NSC#807708, IND#153036) in Adolescents, or Young Adults with Recurrent HER2+ Osteosarcoma (PEPN1924)(CIRB)Purpose
This study is assessing the safety and effectiveness of the investigational drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201A) in adolescents and young adults with osteosarcoma (bone cancer) that is positive for the HER2 protein and has come back after prior treatment. Trastuzumab deruxtecan includes an antibody (trastuzumab) linked to a chemotherapy drug (deruxtecan). Trastuzumab attaches to HER2-positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers deruxtecan to kill them. The treatment is given intravenously (by vein).
