New shot aims to stop breast cancer before it starts
NCT ID NCT07408856
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-phase trial tests a drug called CAN1012 in 24 people with pre-cancerous breast conditions (DCIS or LCIS). The drug is injected directly into the lesion to activate the immune system. The main goal is to check safety and ensure the treatment doesn't delay necessary surgery.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Male or female patients with DCIS or LCIS found on core biopsy. 2. Tumor types allowed: Biopsy-identified DCIS or LCIS comprising a single lesion ≥ 1 cm and ≤ 5 cm in size by imaging (mammogram or MRI or ultrasound (US)) without evidence of invasive disease on the biopsy and US negative for suspicious ipsilateral lymph nodes. 3. Age 18 years or above with ability to give informed consent, comply with the protocol, and sign a study-specific consent document. 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1 deemed suitable by investigator or designee for requirements of study. 5. Laboratory values within 72 hours of Day 0: 1. WBC ≥ 2.0 K/µL, ANC ≥ 1.0 K/µL 2. Hgb ≥ 10 g/dL 3. Platelets ≥ 100,000 K/µL 4. Creatinine Clearance (using Cockcroft-Gault) ≥ 60. 5. AST/ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN 6. Total bilirubin ≤ 3 x ULN, (except subjects with Gilbert's Syndrome, who must have a total bilirubin less than 3.0 mg/dL) 7. Negative pregnancy test for people of childbearing potential (bHCG urine or serum) 6. Patients and their partners who are capable of conceiving must agree to use effective methods of contraception (non-hormonal only) during the course of treatment and for 165 days after last dose of CAN1012. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Any serious underlying medical or psychiatric condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose a risk to patient safety or interfere with the study procedures, completion, or evaluation. 2. Need for corticosteroids ≥ 10mg prednisone daily equivalent; inhaled steroids are acceptable. 3. Need for hormonal contraception including oral contraceptives, implant, injectable depots, vaginal rings, skin patches, and the progestin IUD; or any medication that is a sensitive substrate of the major CYPs. 4. History of or current active autoimmune diseases which, in the judgment of the investigator, pose an active and significant risk. Vitiligo, lichen planus or lichenoid inflammation, and adequately controlled endocrine deficiencies such as hypothyroidism/hyperthyroidism are not exclusionary. 5. Previous history of bone marrow transplantation or oral Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD). 6. Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy. Investigator may allow if deemed not clinically significant. 7. Has active or uncontrolled Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or HIV with AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)- defined opportunistic infection. 8. Has a known history of Hepatitis B (defined as Hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\] reactive) or known history of Hepatitis C virus (defined as HCV RNA) infection. Testing for Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C is not required unless mandated by local health authority. 9. Has a baseline electrocardiogram (ECG) with a prolonged QTc interval \> 480 msec. Medications which have a known and clinically significant risk of QT prolongation may be allowed per investigator discretion. 10. Patients who have had a history of acute diverticulitis, intra-abdominal abscess, GI obstruction and abdominal carcinomatosis which are known risk factors for bowel perforation, and in the judgment of the investigator still pose an active risk.
