Recruiting PHASE2 Breast Neoplasms

New treatment option for Breast Neoplasms

Official title Study of Patritumab Deruxtecan Plus Pembrolizumab With Other Anticancer Agents in Participants With High-Risk Early-Stage Triple-Negative or Hormone Receptor-Low Positive/HER-2 Negative Breast Cancer (MK-1022-010, HERTHENA-Breast-03)

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06797635

What this study is testing

What is Patritumab deruxtecan?

Patritumab deruxtecan is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for breast neoplasms.

Also referred to as MK-1022, HER3-DXd.

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
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and hormone receptor (HR) low positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) negative breast cancer. The main goals of this study are to learn: About the safety of the study treatments and if people tolerate them If people who receive patritumab deruxtecan, pembrolizumab, and chemotherapy before surgery have fewer cancer cells removed during surgery compared to those who receive only pembrolizumab (pembro) and chemotherapy.
