First seen Feb 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This early-phase trial tests whether the drug bortezomib can make metastatic triple-negative breast cancer more sensitive to the immunotherapy pembrolizumab and chemotherapy cisplatin. About 20 women with advanced disease who have already received standard chemotherapy will receive bortezomib first, then the combination when their cancer progresses. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors and control the disease.
