How do I use this information?
The lists and map below can help you and your doctor learn about drug therapies that are available to you and locate clinical trials studying these drugs.
It includes drug therapies corresponding to all mechanisms of action that the Chordoma Foundation's medical and scientific advisors have identified as relevant to chordoma treatment AND that are available to patients through a clinical trial, off-label prescription, or expanded access programs.
If you are considering drug therapies, the Chordoma Foundation Medical Advisory Board recommends that you consult with a chordoma-experienced medical oncologist about drug therapies that may be right for you based on your individual tumor and medical situation, taking into consideration the full range of options and associated evidence, including those presented here in the Chordoma Foundation’s list of drug therapy options.
Each drug therapy is classified into a specific category, numbered 1-4, based on the amount of evidence supporting its use in chordoma treatment. Hover or tap the information icons for category definitions.
Please note that inclusion in evidence category 1 does not necessarily indicate that the results of the clinical trial were positive or that the therapy is effective for treating chordoma. Please talk with your doctor to understand the results.
