Abstract:

Trastuzumab, an FDA approved monoclonal antibody that binds to the extracellular domain of HER2, is the standard of care for these patients. However, after an initial response secondary resistance invariably ensues. The molecular basis of therapeutic resistance in HER2-positive EG cancer remains unknown and, until now, no other HER2-directed therapy has shown clinical efficacy in patients with trastuzumab refractory EG cancer.
