Can a Two-Drug attack outsmart resistant breast cancer?

NCT ID NCT05575804

First seen Jul 24, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026

Summary

This trial is testing whether a new antibody-drug conjugate called GQ1001, when combined with the oral drug pyrotinib, can safely shrink tumors in people with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that has stopped responding to earlier anti-HER2 treatments. The study enrolls about 32 adults and will first find the safest dose, then measure how well the combination works. It aims to offer a potential new option for a hard-to-treat form of breast cancer.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
GQ1001 (an antibody-drug conjugate targeting HER2) combined with pyrotinib (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for people with HER2-positive breast cancer that has stopped responding to other therapies.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with only 32 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Side effects from the drug combination could be serious.
