Summary

This early-stage trial tests whether a DNA vaccine targeting mammaglobin-A (a protein found on breast cancer cells) is safe and can boost the immune system against cancer. About 27 adults with ER+, HER2- breast cancer will receive the vaccine while undergoing standard hormone therapy or chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the vaccine triggers an immune response without causing serious side effects.
