New drug cocktail targets hard-to-treat breast cancer
NCT ID NCT04759248
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This phase 2 trial is testing a combination of three drugs—atezolizumab, trastuzumab, and vinorelbine—in people with HER2-positive advanced or metastatic breast cancer that has already been treated with trastuzumab and other anti-HER2 therapies. The study focuses on patients whose tumors are estrogen receptor negative or have a non-luminal genetic profile, which may be more responsive to immunotherapy. The main goal is to see how many patients have their tumors shrink or disappear.
