What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This early-phase trial is testing whether combining two drugs, naxitamab and sacituzumab govitecan, is safe and effective for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. The study aims to find the best dose and check for side effects in 31 adults whose cancer has spread. If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for a hard-to-treat cancer.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
naxitamab and sacituzumab govitecan
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new combination treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer that may help shrink tumors or slow disease progression.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with only 31 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The combination may cause side effects or not work better than existing treatments.

Exclusion Criteria Participants who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not eligible to be enrolled in this study. * Positive serum pregnancy test or women who are lactating. * Known or severe (≥ Grade 3) hypersensitivity or allergy to naxitamab and/or sacituzumab govitecan, their metabolites, or formulation excipient. * Grade 3 or greater peripheral neuropathy * Have previously received treatment with an anti-GD2 antibody * Prior treatment with TROP2-targeting antibody drug conjugates in the metastatic setting. Participant s who have received TROP2-targeting antibody drug conjugates in the neoadjuvant setting or adjuvant setting are eligible if at least 6 months have elapsed since the last dose of TROP2-targeting antibody drug conjugate. * Have an active second malignancy. Participant s with a history of active cancer for 3 years prior to enrollment, or participant s with surgically cured tumors with low risk of recurrence (eg, nonmelanoma skin cancer, histologically confirmed complete excision of carcinoma in situ, or similar) are allowed to enroll. * Have known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. * Have undergone an allogenic tissue or solid organ transplant. * Uncontrolled hypertension, defined as a consistently elevated systolic blood pressure of \>160 mmHg despite optimal medical management * Clinically significant cardiac disease * Inadequate pulmonary function * Active chronic inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease) or GI perforation within 6 months of enrollment. * Uncontrolled seizure disorders despite anticonvulsant therapy (defined as a seizure event within 3 months prior to enrollment) * Active serious infection requiring systemic antimicrobial therapy. * Participants positive for HIV-1 or 2 with a history of Kaposi sarcoma and/or Multicentric Castleman Disease. * Have active hepatitis B or C infection * Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or receiving systemic corticosteroid therapy (higher than physiologic doses) ≥ 10 mg of prednisone per day or equivalent\] or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 14 days of initiation of study treatment. * Has received prior radiotherapy within 1 weeks of start of study intervention.
