Summary
This trial tests a drug called Disitamab vedotin (RC48-ADC) in 36 people with HER2-low advanced breast cancer that cannot be cured. Participants have had only one prior chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors and how safe it is. This is an early study, so results are not yet known.
