Background
Timely targeted treatment initiation can be challenging because additional biomarker testing is needed for eligibility. The authors hypothesized that timely targeted treatment improves survival relative to nontimely initiation in metastatic HER2+ gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA).
Methods
The authors performed a retrospective cohort study of metastatic HER2+ GEA treated with first‐line...
