New drug combo shows promise against hard-to-treat breast cancer
NCT ID NCT04796623
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new drug (TQB3616) combined with fulvestrant in 122 people with a type of advanced breast cancer (HR-positive, HER2-negative). The goal was to see if the combination could shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth. Participants had either received one prior treatment or none at all. The trial is complete, and results will help determine if this approach offers better disease control.
