What this study is testing

What is Pembrolizumab?

Pembrolizumab is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for triple negative breast cancer.

Also referred to as KEYTRUDA.

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
This is a Phase II trial to assess efficacy and feasibility of pembrolizumab + INBRX-106 as an induction therapy preceding neoadjuvant therapy.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
