New hope for rare breast cancer? trial of taletrectinib underway

NCT ID NCT06214793

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing the drug taletrectinib in people with a rare, advanced form of breast cancer called invasive lobular carcinoma that has a specific gene change (CDH1 mutation). The study aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth. The trial is currently suspended and plans to enroll about 61 participants.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Taletrectinib (a targeted oral drug)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for a rare, hard-to-treat form of breast cancer.

What could go wrong

The trial is small (61 people) and currently suspended, so results may be delayed or never come. It is also only for patients with a specific gene mutation, so it would not help most breast cancer patients.
