First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial is studying a combination of two targeted drugs, patritumab deruxtecan and trastuzumab deruxtecan, for people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive and has low or ultra-low levels of a protein called HER2. The study aims to find the best dose and see how safe and effective the combination is at shrinking tumors. Participants have cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery.
