Datopotamab deruxtecan

Datopotamab-deruxtecan in triple-negative breast cancer patients with newly diagnosed or progressing brain metastases.

This is a Phase II, interventional, prospective, single-arm, multi-center study that will enroll patients with stage II/III triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have residual cancer burden (RCB) II/III after conventional neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy followed by surgery. Technological advances in ctDNA assays have improved both the sensitivity and reliability of molecular residual disease (MRD) detection to enable real-time measurement with clinical-grade assays. The primary objective of this study will be to evaluate ctDNA-based MRD status in high-risk, early-stage TNBC patients by defining the proportion of TNBC patients with MRD-only recurrence (ctDNA positive without radiographically measurable recurrence) during post-surgery surveillance. The secondary objectives will evaluate the safety, preliminary efficacy, and survival outcomes of using Dato-DXd in participants with MRD-only TNBC. Dato-DXd is an investigational antibody-drug conjugate (monoclonal antibody specific for TROP2 and a topoisomerase I (Topo-1) inhibitor) that has demonstrated promising efficacy in TNBC patients with a manageable safety profile.

The purpose of this study is to further advance the ability to practice personalized medicine by learning which new drug agents are most effective with which types of breast cancer tumors and by learning more about which early indicators of response (tumor analysis prior to surgery via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images along with tissue and blood samples) are predictors of treatment success.
