Summary

This phase 2 trial tests two oral drugs, bicalutamide and abemaciclib, in 53 women with a specific type of advanced breast cancer called androgen receptor-positive triple-negative breast cancer. The goal is to see if the combination can stop the cancer from growing for at least 16 weeks. Researchers will also monitor side effects closely.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

bicalutamide and abemaciclib (oral tablets)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new targeted treatment option for a hard-to-treat form of breast cancer that has limited therapies.

What could go wrong

This is an early-phase, single-arm study with only 53 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Side effects from the drug combination could be significant.
