Two-Pronged attack on deadly breast cancer shows promise

NCT ID NCT05795101

Summary

This study is testing whether a combination of two drugs, trastuzumab deruxtecan and durvalumab, can effectively shrink tumors before surgery in people with stage III inflammatory breast cancer that expresses the HER2 protein. The goal is to see if this pre-surgery treatment can eliminate all detectable cancer in the breast and lymph nodes. About 63 participants who haven't had prior treatment for this cancer will receive the drug combination for several months before undergoing standard surgery.
