What it's testing
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of AK112 in combination with Nab-Paclitaxel, compared to a placebo plus Nab-Paclitaxel, as a first-line treatment for inoperable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
