Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Metastatic Breast Cancer

New treatment option for Metastatic Breast Cancer

Official title A Study of Lenvatinib, Pembrolizumab, and Fulvestrant in People With Breast Cancer

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06110793

What this study is testing

What is Lenvatinib?

Lenvatinib is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic breast cancer.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The purpose of this study is to test whether the combination of lenvatinib, pembrolizumab, and fulvestrant is a safe and effective treatment that causes few or mild side effects in people with ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
