Program Overview
The purpose of this study is to test a combination of four drugs—trilaciclib, pembrolizumab, gemcitabine, and carboplatin—in patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. Researchers want to see how well this treatment works against the cancer and how safe it is for patients.
Description
This study is open to patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer that cannot be surgically removed or has spread. Participants will receive a combination of four drugs: trilaciclib, pembrolizumab, gemcitabine, and carboplatin. Pembrolizumab will be given for up to 2 years. Patients will continue treatment until the cancer progresses, side effects become too severe, or they choose to stop for any reason. Tumor samples will be collected from patients when possible before starting treatment, before the third cycle, and if the cancer progresses. Blood samples will also be collected at various times to help researchers understand how the treatment affects the body.
