Promising new attack on tough breast cancer brain metastases
NCT ID NCT06238921
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether adding two drugs (sacituzumab govitecan and zimberelimab) to precise brain radiation can help people with metastatic triple negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain. The trial will enroll 31 adults and compare the combination against sacituzumab govitecan alone. Researchers will monitor safety and how long the cancer stays under control.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option that helps control both brain and body tumors in people with metastatic triple negative breast cancer.
