Can a One-Time Anti-Inflammatory shot during surgery curb Triple-Negative breast Cancer's return?

NCT ID NCT07723469

First seen Jul 23, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether a single dose of SRG-514 (ketorolac), given directly into the area where a breast tumor is removed, can help prevent cancer from coming back. The study enrolls adults with stage II-III triple-negative breast cancer who are having breast-conserving surgery and have not had prior chemotherapy. Half receive standard care plus the drug; half receive standard care alone. Researchers will track how long participants remain cancer-free and monitor for side effects.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a single dose of the drug SRG-514 (ketorolac) injected into the tumor removal site during breast-conserving surgery
What this could lead to
If effective, this simple, one-time treatment during surgery could lower the risk of cancer returning in people with triple-negative breast cancer.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase 3 trial, so the drug may not improve outcomes. Ketorolac is a common anti-inflammatory, but giving it directly into the surgical site carries risks like bleeding or infection.
