NCT ID NCT05570253

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding the experimental drug evexomostat (SDX-7320) to standard chemotherapy (eribulin) works better than chemotherapy alone for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who also have metabolic dysfunction (like insulin resistance). The study will enroll 55 participants and measure changes in insulin resistance, tumor response, and side effects. It is currently recruiting.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
evexomostat (SDX-7320) combined with eribulin
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a more effective treatment for people with triple-negative breast cancer who also have metabolic issues like insulin resistance.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 55 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug combination may cause side effects or not improve outcomes over standard chemotherapy.
