Stereotactic Radiation with Sacituzumab Govitecan and Zimberelimab for the Treatment of Patients with Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer with Brain Metastases, TARGET-TNBC Trial

Trial Status: active

This phase I/II trial tests the safety and side effects of stereotactic radiation (SRS) with sacituzumab govitecan and zimberelimab for the treatment of patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to the brain (brain metastases). SRS is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. It is used to treat brain tumors and other brain disorders that cannot be treated by regular surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Sacituzumab govitecan is approved for the treatment of cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or metastatic triple negative breast cancer after at least 2 prior systemic therapies. Zimberelimab is an immunotherapy approved for the treatment of multiple cancer types. Giving SRS with sacituzumab govitecan and zimberelimab may be safe and effective in treating patients with metastatic TNBC with brain metastases.
