HER2-POSITIVE BREAST CANCER

This was an early-phase study testing a new drug called XMT-2056 in people with advanced solid tumors that have a protein called HER2. The trial aimed to find a safe dose and check for side effects. It was terminated early, so the full results are not available.

This study looks at whether the beta-blocker carvedilol can prevent or treat heart problems in breast cancer patients receiving HER2-targeted therapy. About 184 adults with HER2-positive breast cancer will be randomly assigned to take carvedilol either preventatively or only afte…

This early-phase trial tested a combination of two oral drugs, BKM120 and lapatinib, in 24 people with HER2-positive breast cancer that had stopped responding to trastuzumab. The goal was to find a safe dose and see if the combination could shrink tumors. The study was terminated…

This early-phase trial tested a combination of targeted drugs (neratinib, pertuzumab, trastuzumab) and chemotherapy (paclitaxel, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide) in 34 people with advanced or inflammatory breast cancer. The goal was to find the best dose and see if the combo could …

This study looked at whether women with a certain type of early-stage breast cancer (HER2-positive, low-risk) could avoid surgery if their tumors completely disappeared after standard drug treatment. Only 5 women enrolled before the study was stopped. The goal was to see if a spe…

This early-stage trial aimed to see if combining three drugs (tucatinib, trastuzumab, and capecitabine) with precise radiation (SRS) is safe for people with HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread to the brain. Only one person enrolled before the study was terminated, so we h…

This study tested a new drug called BDC-1001, given alone or with another drug (pertuzumab), in people with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer that had already been treated with multiple therapies, including trastuzumab deruxtecan. The goal was to see if the drug could shrink t…

This early-stage trial tested a new drug called TAS2940 in 29 people with advanced solid tumors (like lung, breast, or brain cancer) that had specific genetic changes (EGFR or HER2). The goal was to find a safe dose and see if the drug could shrink tumors. The study was stopped e…

This early-stage trial tested a new drug called BDC-1001, alone or with the immunotherapy nivolumab, in 175 people with advanced HER2-positive cancers (like breast, colorectal, and stomach cancers) that had stopped responding to other treatments. The study aimed to check safety a…

This phase II trial tested a combination of two drugs, ASLAN001 and capecitabine, in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer that had spread to the brain and continued to grow despite radiation. The study aimed to see if the treatment could shrink brain tumors. However, the tri…

This pilot study aimed to see if giving heart medications (carvedilol and empagliflozin) to women starting HER2-targeted therapy for breast cancer could prevent heart damage. The study planned to enroll 20-40 participants but was terminated early after enrolling only 7. The goal …

This study looked at whether special MRI scans can detect early signs that anti-HER2 therapy is working in women with HER2-positive breast cancer. Thirteen participants received one dose of trastuzumab before surgery, and researchers compared MRI changes to immune cell levels in …

This study tested whether giving a short course of immunotherapy (atezolizumab, alone or with other drugs) before standard treatment could increase immune cell activity in early-stage breast cancer. It involved 33 patients with triple-negative or HER2-positive breast cancer. The …
