Trastuzumab Deruxtecan for Subjects With HER2-Positive Gastric Cancer or Gastro-Esophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma After Progression on or After a Trastuzumab-Containing Regimen (DESTINY-Gastric04)
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) compared with ramucirumab and paclitaxel (Ram + PTX) in participants with HER2-positive gastric or gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma who have progressed on or after a trastuzumab-containing regimen and have not received any additional systemic therapy.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Adults (according to local regulation) and able to provide informed consent for study participation.
* Pathologically documented gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma that has been previously treated in the metastatic setting (unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic disease).
* Progression on or after first-line therapy with a trastuzumab or approved trastuzumab biosimilar-containing regimen. Note: Prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy with a trastuzumab-containing regimen can be counted as a line of therapy if the subject progressed on or within 6 months of completing neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy. Prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy that does not include trastuzumab will not be counted as a line of therapy regardless of the progression status of the subject.
* Locally or centrally confirmed HER2-positive (IHC 3+ or IHC 2+ and evidence of HER2 amplification by ISH) as classified by ASCO-CAP on a tumor biopsy obtained after progression on or after a first-line trastuzumab or approved trastuzumab biosimilar-containing regimen.
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1 at Screening.
* Adequate bone marrow, renal, hepatic function, and blood clotting function within 14 days of randomization.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Use of anticancer therapy after trastuzumab-containing treatment
* Medical history of myocardial infarction (MI) within 6 months before randomization/enrollment, symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Ass…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
