TRAstuzumab and Pertuzumab for HER2+ Resectable Oesophageal Cancer

Is NCT05188313 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 3 trial studies multiple treatments including Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab for esophageal cancer.

Phase 3RecruitingAcademisch Medisch Centrum - Universiteit van Amsterdam (AMC-UvA)NCT05188313Data as of May 2026

Treatment: Trastuzumab · Pertuzumab · Paclitaxel · CarboplatinDespite treatment according to the CROSS-regimen, median overall survival is less than four years (2.3 QALYs). The burden of disease is within the highest category (0.71 to 1.0). Also, no targeted treatment options are currently available, hampering personalized treatment for this patient population. TRAP-2 aims to address these needs by investigating whether addition of trastuzumab and pertuzumab to standard of care improves survival of patients with resectable HER2 positive esophageal adenocarcinoma (HER2+ EAC). Patients with HER2+ EAC will be randomised to neoadjuvant chemoradiation according to the CROSS regimen or CROSS + TRAstuzumab and Pertuzumab. Primary outcome is overall survival.
