Full Title
A Phase 1b/2 Study of ERAS-601 SHP2 Inhibitor as a Monotherapy in Patients with Advanced and Progressing ChordomaPurpose
Chordoma is a type of bone cancer that develops in the spine or the base of the skull. Researchers are doing this study to learn if ERAS-601 is safe and works well in people with chordoma. The people in this study have chordoma that is inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery) or has spread.
ERAS-601 targets a protein called SHP2, which is found on chordoma cancer cells and plays a role in their growth. By blocking this protein, ERAS-601 may help slow or stop the growth of your cancer. It is taken orally (by mouth).
