New vaccine aimed at training immune system to fight advanced breast cancer enters first human tests
NCT ID NCT06746688
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage trial tests a new vaccine called ES2B-C001, with or without an immune booster (adjuvant), in 40 people with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer who have already tried other treatments. The vaccine is designed to help the body's immune system recognize and attack cancer cells. The main goal is to check safety and find the best dose, while also looking at whether the vaccine triggers an immune response.

- Active substance
- ES2B-C001 (a vaccine) with or without an adjuvant (ISA 51 VD)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new vaccine-based treatment for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that helps the immune system fight the cancer.
