New combo attack on tough breast cancer

NCT ID NCT04448886

Summary

This study is testing whether adding an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) to a targeted cancer drug (sacituzumab govitecan) works better than the targeted drug alone for people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. About 110 participants with HR-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two treatment plans. The main goal is to see which approach keeps the cancer from growing for a longer time.
