NCT ID NCT07752550

First seen Aug 07, 2026 ยท Last updated Aug 07, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial is investigating whether adding an experimental drug called retlirafusp alfa to standard chemotherapy or to another drug called fuzuloparib can improve outcomes for people with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The study includes two groups: one with early-stage disease receiving treatment before surgery, and another with advanced or metastatic disease. The main goals are to see how well the combinations shrink tumors and whether they are safe.
