Double attack on tough breast cancer shows promise

NCT ID NCT03025035

Summary

This small, completed study tested a combination of two drugs for people with advanced breast cancer linked to specific inherited gene changes (BRCA or HDR defects). The goal was to see if using an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) together with a targeted therapy (olaparib) could help shrink tumors and control the cancer. The study enrolled 14 participants to measure how well the combination worked.
