Study Summary

This trial is testing neratinib in combination with everolimus, palbociclib, or trametinib to see if it is effective in treating solid tumors that have progressed despite prior treatment and have spread to other parts of the body.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that are unresponsive to standard treatments and have specific genetic mutations (EGFR, HER2, HER3/4, KRAS) may join. They should be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), have adequate organ function, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to use contraception, and not have certain health conditions like active infections or recent major surgery.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of neratinib combined with everolimus, palbociclib, or trametinib on patients whose tumors carry certain mutations. It aims to find the safest doses and observe how well these drug combinations can control tumor growth compared to neratinib alone.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include diarrhea from neratinib; mouth sores and weakened immune system from everolimus; low white blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk from palbociclib; and skin rash as well as vision changes from trametinib. Each drug combination has its own set of possible side effects.
