New drug cocktail aims to wipe out breast cancer before surgery

NCT ID NCT07396324

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing whether adding an immunotherapy drug called QL1706 to standard chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. About 55 participants will receive the combination, and researchers will measure how many have no cancer cells left at the time of surgery. The trial is currently recruiting.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab (QL1706) plus chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a more effective pre-surgery treatment for HR+/HER2- breast cancer, potentially increasing the chance of no cancer remaining at surgery.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 55 participants and no control group, so results may not be conclusive. The combination may cause significant side effects from chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
