First seen Apr 01, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study is for people with breast cancer that has spread to the brain (at least two tumors). Participants receive an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab every three weeks, plus a precise, one-time radiation treatment to just one of the brain tumors. The goal is to see if the immune system, boosted by the drug, can also shrink the other, untreated brain tumors and tumors elsewhere in the body. The study is currently recruiting 41 participants.
