Biosimilar breast cancer drug trial pulled before it started
NCT ID NCT06884254
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study was designed to test whether a biosimilar version of pertuzumab (EG1206A) works as well as the original drug (Perjeta) in people with HER2-positive, hormone receptor-negative early breast cancer. Participants would have received either the biosimilar or the original drug along with standard chemotherapy and trastuzumab before and after surgery. However, the trial was withdrawn before enrolling any patients, so no data were collected.
