Three-Drug cocktail aims to shrink breast tumors before surgery
NCT ID NCT07691333
First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a combination of three drugs—kumorixilib, capecitabine, and letrozole—given before surgery can slow or shrink tumors in people with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. Participants take the drugs for six 28-day cycles, then have surgery. The main goal is to measure changes in a tumor growth marker called Ki-67 after one cycle. The study is small, with 35 participants, and is designed to explore safety and early signs of effectiveness.
