Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I am 18 years old or older.
I have advanced cancer with HER2 alterations.
I have had at least one previous treatment for my cancer.
I am willing to provide a sample of my tumor tissue.
I have signed a consent form to participate.
You may not be able to join if
I have HER2 mutant non-small cell lung cancer.
I have had any other cancers in the last 3 years, except treated skin cancers or certain early-stage cancers.
I am currently taking medications that could interfere with the trial.

Answer three quick questions written from this study's own rules to see if you may qualify. No account needed to find out.
This is a study for people with advanced cancer for whom previous treatment was not successful. Adults aged 18 and over with advanced cancer with HER2 alterations can join the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called zongertinib helps people with advanced cancers with HER2 alterations. HER2 alterations can cause cancer. Zongertinib inhibits HER2.

This is a study for people with advanced cancer for whom previous treatment was not successful. Adults aged 18 and over with advanced cancer with HER2 alterations can join the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called zongertinib helps people with advanced cancers with HER2 alterations. HER2 alterations can cause cancer. Zongertinib inhibits HER2.
Participants are put into groups based on the type of advanced cancer they have, the type of HER2 alterations they have, and the dose of zongertinib they receive. Depending on the group they are in, participants take 1 of 2 different doses of zongertinib each day. Participants can continue the treatment as long as they benefit from it and can tolerate it.
Participants visit the study site regularly. During many of the visits, the doctors check the size of the tumour and whether it has spread to other parts of the body. During all the visits, the doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
