This phase I/II trial tests the safety and tolerability of an experimental personalized vaccine when given by itself and with pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid tumor cancers that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). The experimental vaccine is designed target certain proteins (neoantigens) on individuals' tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving the personalized neoantigen peptide-based vaccine with pembrolizumab may be safe and effective in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.

This review will evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR1210 (Camrelizumab) and antivascular drug(Famitinib) in combination with anthracyclines/taxane-based adjuvant chemotherapy (carrelizumab + FAM + EC-P) compared with conventional chemotherapy regimens (dose-intensive epirubicin and cyclophosphamide, sequential paclitaxel, or EC-P) in patients with early-stage high-risk TNBC.

The purpose of the study is to find out if an investigational vaccine called Dendritic Cell (DC) vaccine given together with standard of care chemotherapy drugs can help people with Triple Negative and HR low positive breast cancer.

This is a phase Ib followed by phase II clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of combination of ADG106 with pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic cancers. The Phase Ib dose finding part will include all solid tumor subtypes with treatment refractory disease, while phase II will focus on only patients with TNBC.

This is a single-arm, multi-center phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy Sacituzumab Tirumotecan (Sac-TMT) plus bevacizumab in triple-negative breast cancer patients with brain metastases. Twenty-four participants are planned to be enrolled. The eligible patients should have histologically or cytologically confirmed TNBC with BM.

To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of oral all-trans retinoic acid in combination with toripalimab in patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who had failed second-line and subsequent therapy.

This phase II trial tests how well evaluating circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) works to guide therapy-change decisions in treating patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). This study wants to learn if small pieces of DNA associated with a tumor (called circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA) can be detected in investigational blood tests during the course of standard chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer, and whether information from such investigational ctDNA blood testing could possibly be used as an early indication of chemotherapy treatment failure. It is hoped that additional information from investigational blood testing for ctDNA could help doctors to switch more quickly from a standard chemotherapy treatment that typically has significant side effects and which may not be working, to a different standard treatment regimen against TNBC, called sacituzumab govitecan. Sacituzumab govitecan is a monoclonal antibody, called hRS7, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called irinotecan. hRS7 is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as TROP2 receptors, and delivers irinotecan to kill them. Studying ctDNA may assist doctors to change therapy earlier if needed, and may improve health outcomes in patients with metastatic TNBC.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive disease with higher proportion of Blacks affected and in younger age groups. There is no targeted therapy unlike other types of breast cancer such as hormone positive and Human Epidermal Growth factor 2 (HER2) positive subtypes. Chemotherapy is therefore the main choice of systemic treatment with rapid development of resistance in most cases. At present, there is no blood test to monitor treatment response and disease relapse. This one-stage phase II study with a single arm design will determine the response rate of standard chemotherapy using Epirubicin (60mg/m2), Cyclophosphamide (600mg/m2) , Paclitaxel (120mg/m2) and Carboplatin (6AUC) in TNBC patients. We will measure the blood level of microRNA molecules and circulating tumor DNA during and after treatment to test if changes can be used to indicate drug failure in these patients. Disease status and tumor response will be assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines while toxicity will be assessed using CTCAE v5). The trial will be conducted as per the International Council on Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice (ICH GCP) Guidelines E6 (R1) and other applicable guidelines

This neoadjuvant trial for patients with TNBC and/or gBRCA breast cancer, aims to investigate the safety and efficacy (improvement in pathological Complete Response at surgery) of concurrent platinum-based chemotherapy with olaparib an inhibitor of the PARP enzyme (PARPi).

This is a Phase 1a/1b, dose-escalation/expansion, consecutive-cohort, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of PLN-101095 in combination with pembrolizumab (the study treatment regimen) in adult participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors for which pembrolizumab is indicated but have documented disease progression (refractory \[primary resistance\]) or relapsed \[secondary resistance\]) after at least 3 months from the start of treatment with pembrolizumab. The study will consist of 2 main parts: * Part 1: Consecutive dose-escalation cohorts using a Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) dose escalation design with accelerated titration * Part 2: Dose-expansion cohorts using Simon's 2-stage design

About 10-20% of all individuals with breast cancer have a so-called triple-negative tumor (TNBC). This type of breast cancer has a particularly unfavorable course and a higher mortality rate compared to other forms of breast cancer. Research studies show that it is important for individuals with TNBC to achieve a so-called pathologic complete response (pCR) to treatment. In the phase II study SAKK 66/22, it is being investigated whether the administration of the drug INT230-6 before surgery for breast cancer can increase the rate of pCR in the tumor and affected lymph nodes. The tolerability of INT230-6 as well as other factors such as response to treatment and the possibility of breast-conserving surgery are also being examined.

The purpose of this research study is to understand what effect near complete estrogen deprivation (NCED) therapy has on the heart in breast cancer patients. Investigators want to understand if NCED changes how the heart works.

A Phase 1/2a Dose Escalation and Expansion Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Clinical Activity of 177LuBetaBart, a 177Lu-Labeled Anti-B7-H3 Monoclonal Antibody, in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory, Locally Advanced Inoperable, or Metastatic Solid Tumors

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) presents significant challenges due to its limited treatment options and poor efficacy. While neoadjuvant chemotherapy has improved breast-conserving rates and extended survival for TNBC patients, this subtype still faces issues such as restricted treatment modalities, low pathological response rates, and unfavorable prognosis compared to other subtypes. Studies like Keynote522 and IMpassion031 have shown that combining chemotherapy with immunotherapy yields a pCR rate of 64.8% in early-stage high-risk TNBC patients, suggesting that such combinations can offer substantial benefits. However, the low immunogenicity of breast cancer and the lack of clear predictive molecular markers for effective immunotherapy result in suboptimal pCR and objective response rates for this group. Radiotherapy has systemic immune regulatory effects by promoting the release of antigens from tumor cells, enhancing T-cell infiltration, and directly killing tumor cells. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic radiotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitors and chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant treatment of TNBC.

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether the study drug, SDX-7320, when combined with the standard chemotherapy eribulin, is an effective treatment for people with TNBC and metabolic dysfunction. The researchers will also look at whether the study treatment (SDX-7320 combined with eribulin) is safe and causes few or mild side effects in participants. The researchers will compare this treatment approach to eribulin alone.

Objective: To collect information on how often a solid tumor cancer might lose the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) by next generation sequencing and perform apheresis to collect and store an eligible participant's own T cells for future use to make CAR T-Cell therapy for their disease treatment. Design: This is a non-interventional, observational study to evaluate participants with solid tumors with a high risk of relapse for incurable disease. No interventional therapy will be administered on this study. Some of the information regarding the participant's tumor analysis may be beneficial to management of their disease. Participants that meet all criteria may be enrolled and leukapheresed (blood cells collected). The participant's cells will be processed and stored for potential manufacture of CAR T-cell therapy upon relapse of their cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, drug levels, and preliminary efficacy of BMS-986507 combinations in adult participants with advanced solid tumors.

In TNBC patients who have completed neoadjuvant immunotherapy and local treatment, a 9-cycle regimen of PD-1 inhibitor adjuvant immunotherapy is currently considered the standard approach. Based on the classification according to their BRCA mutation status, patients with BRCA mutations choose the PD-1 inhibitor + PARPi regimen, while patients without BRCA mutations opt for the PD-1 inhibitor + capecitabine regimen. Compared to monotherapy with PD-1 inhibitors, these combination regimens may offer improved efficacy and acceptable tolerability. This study is designed as a prospective, randomized, controlled, open-label, single-center phase III trial aimed at assessing the efficacy and safety of selecting PARPi or capecitabine in combination with PD-1 inhibitors based on germline BRCA1/2 mutations as adjuvant therapy in high-risk TNBC patients who have achieved non-pCR after completion of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in conjunction with chemotherapy and local treatment.

Breast cancer (BC), especially premenopausal, is emerging rapidly in East Asia in recent 20 years. Half of the breast cancer patients in Asia are younger than 50 years of age. In general, younger or premenopausal patients are associated with poorer prognosis. Premenopausal patients have higher estrogen levels than those in older (postmenopausal) patients. Estrogen is known to suppress anti-tumor T cell response and leading to tumor progression in different animal models (Clin Cancer Res 2016 22:6204), including lung cancer, melanoma, ovarian cancer. One of the mechanisms that contributes to estrogen's suppression of T cell function is via the mobilization of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC). Targeting ER signaling with hormonal therapy can abolish MDSC mobilization, and sensitize tumor cells to antigen specific T cell or NK cell killing (Cancer Discovery 2018 7:72 2017). These study results further support the hypothesis that, E2 is associated with immunosuppressive effect, and may contribute to the suppression of immune surveillance in young female breast cancer patients. These results suggest that E2 may suppress anti-tumor immunity, and E2 reduction improve the anti-tumor immunity. In our preliminary works, the investigators found higher dose (equivalent to premenopausal women serum level) of E2 suppressed T cell activities, while lower dose E2 (postmenopausal serum level) activated T cell activity. The investigators have investigated the combination of anti-PD1 antibody and GnRH agonist plus exemestane (an aromatase inhibitor which will block the production of E2 from adipose tissue) in ER positive premenopausal breast cancer patient refractory to prior endocrine therapy in metastatic setting. The response rate was 38.4%, and median progression-free survival (PFS) was 10.2 months. This outstanding result were presented in AACR 2021 oral session (Cancer Res 2021 81:13\_Supplement, CT028). On the other hand, progesterone is also well known for its anti-inflammation and immune tolerance activity. This possibly makes estrogen reduction treatments, such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH agonist), an important partner in augmenting neoadjuvant therapy for patients with premenopausal breast cancer. For triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), endocrine therapy has no anti-tumor effect. On the other hand, the use of GnRH agonist has been tested for the protection of ovary function of young female while receiving adjuvant chemotherapy. Surprisingly, the concomitant use of goserelin and adjuvant chemotherapy improved disease-free survival (HR 0.47, P=0.04) and overall survival (HR 0.45, P=0.05) versus chemotherapy alone in ER negative premenopausal early BC patients in POEMS study, which was initially aimed to improve the success pregnant rate (N Engl J Med 2015 372;923). Endocrine therapy is theoretically antagonist to chemotherapy therapy when concomitantly use. In another report analyzed the outcome of both pre- and postmenopausal women who entered two randomized trials (Gruppo Oncologico Nord-Ovest-Mammella Intergruppo studies) on adjuvant chemotherapy and received either concomitant or sequential hormonal therapy. The result showed a decreasing trend (P = 0.015) in hazard ratio of death with increasing age was observed, indicating that concomitant therapy is more effective than sequential therapy in young patients (Annals of Oncology 2008;19(2):299-307). These results support the hypothesis that, E2 suppression/ER inhibition therapy may modulate immune microenvironment, thereby enhancing the chemotherapy induced immunogenic death effect. The investigators hypothesized that, estrogen level reduction by ovarian function suppression can modulate immune microenvironment, thereby augmenting adjuvant chemotherapy efficacy, regardless of the estrogen receptor (ER) status of cancer cell. Therefore, the investigators plan to test this hypothesis in real clinical model, with standard clinical recommended treatment doses. The study is designed to evaluate whether the GnRH agonist can provide the therapeutic benefit for premenopausal TNBC patients via modulating immune microenvironment. Premenopausal TNBC patients will receive GnRH agonist and neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and the efficacy and immune microenvironment change of co-administration arm will be measured and compared with chemotherapy alone control arm.

This is a prospective, multicenter, phase I/II, open-label, two-stage design of PD1+ TILs infusion in metastatic or advanced TNBC. TILS001 includes 3 parts. Previous to each phase inclusion, a specific ICF must be signed by the patient. Participants potentially eligible to participate in the clinical trial will be offered to sign a ICF three times prior to TILs treatment: 1) to allow for collection of archival FFPE tissue samples for determination PD1 by mRNA (Part #1), 2) prior to a fresh metastatic biopsy for selection, isolation and partial expansion of PD1+ TILs (Part #2) and 3) prior to allow for remaining study procedures and TILs therapy (Part #3, Main Consent).

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment and work by blocking protein interactions that normally prevent the immune system from recognizing and destroying cancer cells. However, these agents, now approved for over 15 types of cancers and for both early-stage and metastatic disease, are capable of causing inflammation in any organ system of the body that can lead to organ damage, dysfunction, and even death in rare cases. Some patients may suffer acute and treatable complications like joint pain, but some may have irreversible complications like hypothyroidism that requires daily, life-long medication. It is therefore important to fully understand the different types of damage ICIs can cause to better monitor patients receiving ICI therapy. A rising concern from recent reports in the literature is that ICIs may weaken bone and increase the risk of fractures. In this study, the investigators aim to characterize how ICIs impact the bone by examining several factors in patients undergoing curative-intent ICI treatment either alone or in combination with chemotherapy: bone mineral density, bone volume, and markers of bone turnover in the blood. The study will use two imaging techniques to assess bone mineral density and volume. DXA (dual X-ray absorptiometry) imaging uses low-dose X-rays to measure how dense (or strong) bones are and is often used to diagnose or assess the risk of osteoporosis. High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQCT) is a 3D imaging technology that can quantify bone structure and volume and offers high resolution that can be used to assess bone in smaller bones of the peripheral skeleton. The investigators hypothesize that ICI treatment will weaken bones and increase the risk of fractures. As ICI therapy is relatively new, a rising number of patients may be at risk of fractures or have low bone density that is not being monitored because there are no guidelines in place notifying physicians of this potential risk to patients. This is study will provide important preliminary data that will be the basis for larger studies in the future aiming to better monitor and potentially treat bone weakening in patients treated with ICIs to reduce the pain, inconvenience, and complications from fragility fractures.

A prospective, multicenter, observational study to evaluate the correlation of Molecular Residual Disease (MRD) detection using circulating tumor DNA guided test to pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in stage I-III triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Results from this study aim to improve MRD detection and disease outcomes for future patients.
