About the research

Researchers want to know if sacituzumab tirumotecan given alone or with pembrolizumab can treat triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). The main goal of this study is to learn if people treated with sacituzumab tirumotecan alone or with pembrolizumab live longer overall or without the cancer growing or spreading compared to people treated with chemotherapy.

Who may be able to participate?

The list below is the sponsor’s full registry wording. It can include conditions, prior treatment, test results and other requirements. A match in search does not mean you qualify.

Inclusion Criteria:

Has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Participants with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are radiologically stable
Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years. Replacement therapy (eg, thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid) is allowed
Has a history of (noninfectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease (ILD) that required steroids, has current pneumonitis/ILD, or has suspected ILD or pneumonitis that cannot be ruled out by standard diagnostic assessments
Concurrent active Hepatitis B (defined as HBsAg positive and/or detectable HBV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) (defined as anti-HCV antibody (Ab) positive and detectable HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA)) infection
History of stem cell/solid organ transplant
Has not adequately recovered from major surgery or has ongoing surgical complications

What researchers are measuring

Outcome measures describe what is being studied. They are not proof that a treatment works.

Primary measures

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (sac-TMT versus treatment of physician's choice (TPC); sac-TMT plus pembrolizumab versus TPC)

Time frame: Up to ~39 months

PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) based on blinded independent central review (BICR) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PD is defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD.

Overall Survival (OS) (sac-TMT versus TPC)

Time frame: Up to ~61 months

OS is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

Secondary measures

Overall Survival (OS) (sac-TMT plus pembrolizumab versus treatment of physician's choice (TPC); sac-TMT plus pembrolizumab versus sac-TMT)

Time frame: Up to ~61 months

OS is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (sac-TMT plus pembrolizumab versus sac-TMT)

Time frame: Up to ~39 months

PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) per RECIST 1.1 based on BICR or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PD is defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD.

Objective Response Rate (ORR) (sac-TMT versus TPC; sac-TMT plus pembrolizumab versus TPC)

Time frame: Up to ~39 months

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with Complete Response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions) or Partial Response (PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) per RECIST 1.1 based on BICR.

Duration of Response (DOR)

Time frame: Up to ~39 months

For participants who demonstrate a confirmed Complete Response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions) or Partial Response (PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) per RECIST 1.1 based on BICR, DOR is defined as the time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until progressive disease (PD) or death, whichever occurs first. Per RECIST 1.1, PD is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD.
