ClinicalTrials ID:NCT04445844

This clinical trial is testing a new combination of treatments, INCMGA00012 and pelareorep, to see if they can help control triple negative breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of these treatments.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring a new treatment approach for patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer, which is a type of breast cancer that does not respond to hormonal therapy. The trial is testing a combination of two treatments: INCMGA00012, a monoclonal antibody that helps the immune system attack cancer cells, and pelareorep, a virus that may help break down cancer cells. The goal is to see if this combination can slow down the growth and spread of the cancer.

Description

The main goals of this study are to see how well the combination of INCMGA00012 and pelareorep works in treating metastatic triple negative breast cancer and to assess the safety and tolerability of this treatment. The study will also look at how long patients live without the cancer getting worse, their overall survival, and how long the treatment response lasts. Additionally, researchers will evaluate the quality of life of participants and explore whether certain biological markers can predict treatment outcomes.

Participants will receive pelareorep through an IV on specific days of a 28-day cycle, along with retifanlimab (INCMGA00012) on another day. This cycle will repeat as long as the cancer does not progress and the treatment is tolerated well. After completing the study treatment, participants will have follow-up visits to monitor their health and the effects of the treatment.
