Post-op T-DM1 in HER-2+ Salivary Gland Carcinomas

Is NCT04620187 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 2 trial studies multiple treatments including Ado-trastuzumab (T) emtansine (T-DM1) and Standard of Care Chemotherapy for salivary gland cancer.

Phase 2RecruitingDana-Farber Cancer InstituteNCT04620187Data as of May 2026

Treatment: Ado-trastuzumab (T) emtansine (T-DM1) · Standard of Care ChemotherapyThis research is being done to see how safe and effective the use of the study drug Ado-trastuzumab (T) emtansine (DM1), T-DM1, and standard of care chemoradiation are when used together in treating HER2-positive salivary gland cancer. It will also examine the effectiveness of study drug Ado-trastuzumab (T) emtansine (DM1) on cancer recurrence.
