Early trial tests new vaccine to train immune system against tough breast cancer

NCT ID NCT03362060

Summary

This early-stage study is testing the safety of a new cancer vaccine called PVX-410, given alone and with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab), in 20 patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer. The goal is to see if the combination can safely help the patient's own immune system recognize and fight the cancer. Researchers will measure immune system activity and track side effects and cancer progression.
