Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This completed phase 2 trial tested a combination of sintilimab (an immunotherapy), anlotinib (a drug that blocks blood vessel growth), and standard chemotherapy in 29 people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. The treatment was given before surgery to shrink or eliminate the tumor. The main goal was to see how many patients had no cancer left at the time of surgery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Sintilimab (immunotherapy), anlotinib (anti-angiogenesis drug), nab-paclitaxel, and carboplatin (chemotherapy)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could become a new pre-surgery treatment option for early triple-negative breast cancer, potentially improving the chance of eliminating all cancer before surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 29 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The combination also carries risks of side effects from immunotherapy, anti-angiogenesis drugs, and chemotherapy.
