What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early-phase trial is testing a radioactive drug called 225Ac-TR2205 in 15 women with advanced triple-negative breast cancer that has spread. The main goal is to see if the drug is safe and tolerable, and to measure how much radiation reaches tumors. It is too early to know if it works, but researchers hope it may one day offer a new treatment option.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
225Ac-TR2205 injection (a radioactive drug)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for advanced triple-negative breast cancer that has spread.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small trial (15 people) focused on safety, not effectiveness. The radioactive drug may cause side effects, and it's unknown if it will shrink tumors.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Voluntary participation in the study and signing of the informed consent form. 2. Female patients aged 18 years and above. 3. Patients with triple-negative breast cancer who have been diagnosed by histopathology \[immune histochemistry estrogen receptor (ER) positive rate \< 1% is defined as ER negative expression; progesterone receptor (PR) positive rate \< 1% is defined as PR negative; human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression 0-1+ or HER2 ++ but fluorescence in situ hybridization/colorimetric in situ hybridization (FISH/CISH) negative is defined as HER2 negative expression\]. 4. Patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have received at least 2 systemic treatments (at least 1 of which is for metastatic disease). 5. Patients with at least 1 measurable lesion (tumor evaluation according to RECIST 1.1). 6. ECOG performance status assessment of 0-1. 7. Clinical significance of hematological toxicity related to previous treatment must recover to ≤ 2 grade, and non-hematological toxicity ≤ 1 grade (except for hair loss). 8. For patients with reproductive potential: 7 days before the first administration, fertile women must confirm that the urine pregnancy test is negative and agree to use effective contraceptive measures during the use of the study drug and within 6 months after the last administration (such as oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices, restraint of sexual desire or barrier contraception combined with spermicides, etc.). Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who received radiotherapy (except palliative radiotherapy) or chemotherapy, immunotherapy within 3 weeks before treatment, except for bisphosphonates (which can be used for bone metastasis), are excluded. 2. Patients who received radionuclide therapy within 6 months before enrollment, such as strontium-89, samarium-153, rhenium-186, rhenium-188, radium-223, lutetium-177, actinium-225, or whole-body radiotherapy. 3. Patients who are undergoing chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biological therapy, off-label radionuclide therapy, or other investigational treatments. 4. Patients who have undergone major surgery within 28 days before enrollment. 5. Patients evaluated by the investigator are expected to have a life expectancy of less than 3 months. 6. Bone scans show super bone imaging, defined as uniform and significant concentration of radioactive isotopes in the entire skeleton relative to soft tissue, while the urinary system is not visible or shows mild visibility. 7. Symptomatic spinal cord compression, or clinical or imaging evidence suggesting impending spinal cord compression. 8. Patients with uncontrollable central nervous system (CNS) metastases, who need symptomatic treatment with glucocorticoids or mannitol, and if necessary, enhanced CT or MRI to clarify the status of brain metastases. 9. Patients with a history of other malignant tumors, except for those with fully treated malignant tumors that have survived without treatment for more than 3 years without recurrence or progression, or patients with fully treated non-melanoma skin cancer and superficial bladder cancer. 10. Patients with a history that may interfere with the purpose of the study and assessment, or the investigator determines that the patient has any condition that cannot cooperate with imaging examinations, treatment, and procedures.
