Metastatic Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

This is an open-label, Phase 2 study to evaluate preliminary anti-tumor activity, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of BDC-1001 administered as a single agent and in combination with pertuzumab in subjects with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) previously treated with trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu®).

The purpose of this research is to determine the expression of prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, androgen receptor (AR)-positive metastatic breast cancer, and to determine its role in resistance to the anti-androgen, bicalutamide. The investigators hypothesize that PSMA expression will correlate with resistance to anti-androgen therapies, as has been documented in prostate cancer, and this can be used to select patients most likely to benefit from these therapies in future clinical trials. 15 people with HER2-negative, AR-positive metastatic breast cancer will be enrolled and be on study for about 3 days.

The purpose of this study is to test an empirically supported psychotherapeutic intervention, Managing Cancer and Living Meaningfully (CALM), compared to treatment as usual (TAU) in those with malignant brain cancer diagnoses. Read Less

Management of leptomeningeal disease (LMD) in patients with metastatic breast cancer is an area of unmet clinical need. High-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) is known to have activity against breast cancer and in contrast to other systemic chemotherapeutics, it penetrates the blood brain barrier, targets areas of poor cerebrospinal fluid flow, may penetrate bulky leptomeningeal disease, and provide treatment to systemic disease burden. While two retrospective studies have suggested activity of HD-MTX in LMD in patients with breast cancer, no prospective data are available to inform its inclusion in treatment regimens. Thus, while HD-MTX is included in the NCCN Guidelines for LMD and while it is used to varying degrees in cancer centers across the nation, this is more representative of the lack of available therapies for LMD as opposed to strong evidence-based data. This phase II, prospective study will evaluate systemic, intravenous HD-MTX in breast cancer patients with leptomeningeal metastasis with or without brain parenchymal metastasis. Read Less

This is a research study to test the safety and effectiveness of using the drug alpelisib together with chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel) and a drug called L-NMMA in patients with HER2 negative metastatic or locally advanced metaplastic breast cancer, who have not responded to previous treatments. Participants in this study in addition to the standard care chemotherapy will also receive the drug alpelisib and L-NMMA. The therapies will be administered every 3 weeks (1 cycle) until disease progression, toxicity or until the participant withdraws from the study. The nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of the 3 week cycles. Participants will take the drug alpelisib by mouth once daily at a dose determined by a safety study and the drug L-NMMA will be given intravenously on days 1 to 5 of the 3 week cycles. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of DB-1303/BNT323 compared with investigator's choice chemotherapy in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) by blinded independent central review (BICR) in the HR+, HER2-low (immunohistochemistry [IHC]2+/in situ hybridization [ISH]- and IHC 1+) population.

This is a phase 4, multi-center, open-label, prospective cohort study to evaluate the clinical utility of Fluoroestradiol F18 (Cerianna) PET/CT to guide therapeutic management in ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer patients with progressive disease on first-line standard-of-care hormonal therapy. All patients will undergo a Cerianna PET/CT scan. The treating physician will complete a standardized questionnaire to indicate the second-line therapeutic management plan before the scheduled Cerianna PET/CT. After interpretation of Cerianna PET/CT by local radiologist or nuclear medicine physician, the treating physician will fill out a similar questionnaire to specify the final therapeutic decision. The proportion of patients with a change in therapeutic management plan based on Cerianna PET/CT results will be the primary endpoint. During the study follow-up period of 18 months, data on standard-of-care imaging, treatments/procedures received, and clinical outcomes will be collected. Patients will be asked to complete a health-related quality of life questionnaire at their screening, 6-month, and 18-month visit. Secondary endpoints include visual and quantitative heterogeneity assessment of tumor Cerianna uptake, and PFS rates at 6 months and 18 months after Cerianna PET/CT, which will be assessed between patients with and without a change in therapeutic management plan. Maximum duration of follow-up for each patient: 20 months. First patient first visit to last patient last visit: estimated 36 months. Read Less

This is a combination of 4 therapies, three of which are used to treat a single "target site" of your cancer (such as a lymph node or a single tumor), and the 4th is given directly into the blood stream (intravenous or "IV"). Radiation: The target site --lymph node or tumor (the one what will be injected) --will get two small treatments of radiation. Radiation is often times used to shrink and kill tumors in patients with certain types of lymphoma, breast cancer and head and neck cancer, however, the dose of radiation that you will receive --one dose on day one of the clinical trial and one dose on day two --is 10 to 20 time less radiation that you would receive for treatment of these cancers. Flt3L/CDX-301 is an immune cell growth factor, similar to white blood cell growth factors (Neupogen or Neulasta) or red blood cell growth factors (EPO or Epogen) that you may have received to help protect your blood cells previously. Flt3L causes your body to make more immune cells, specifically a type of immune cell called "dendritic cells". Poly-ICLC is an immune cell activating factor. Its function is to turn on the immune cells that have been brought to the tumor by Flt3L. Pembrolizumab is an antibody (a type of human protein) that is being tested to see if it will allow the body's immune system to kill your tumor cells. Pembrolizumab is approved for use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adult patients with many different types of cancer including head and neck cancer. Pembrolizumab is not FDA approved to treat patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or metastatic breast cancer, as it has not been effective at treating these cancers when used alone. While most people do not have immediate side effects when this medication is given, it has the ability to cause side effects for. Read Less
