New combo strategy takes on Hard-to-Treat breast cancer

NCT ID NCT07151586

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether alternating two targeted chemotherapy drugs—sacituzumab govitecan and trastuzumab deruxtecan—can help people with HER2-low triple-negative breast cancer that has spread. About 260 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the alternating combo or sacituzumab govitecan alone. The main goal is to see if the alternating approach improves overall survival.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Sacituzumab govitecan (Trodelvy) and trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu)
What this could lead to
If this works, it could offer a new treatment option that extends survival for people with HER2-low triple-negative breast cancer that has spread.
What could go wrong
This is a phase 2 trial, so it's still early. The alternating regimen may not improve survival over the standard drug alone, and side effects from combining two powerful drugs could be significant.
