NCT ID NCT06631092
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase trial is testing a personalized oral DNA vaccine called NECVAX-NEO1 in 28 people with triple-negative breast cancer. The vaccine is given alongside standard chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug before and after surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and helps the immune system target the cancer more effectively.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- personalized oral DNA cancer vaccine (NECVAX-NEO1)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new add-on treatment that helps the immune system better fight triple-negative breast cancer, potentially improving outcomes when combined with standard therapy.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 28 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The vaccine is personalized, which is complex and may not work for everyone. Side effects are still being studied.
