This is a single arm phase II trial combination of ivonescimab and carbo-docetaxel every 3 weeks for 6 cycles in patients with early-stage triple negative breast cancer. The trial is designed to test the safety and efficacy of adding ivonescimab in patients with early TNBC undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy with carboplatin and docetaxel. Patients will receive ivonescimab 20 mg/kg IV on Day 1 of each cycle, and carboplatin AUC6 and docetaxel 75 mg/m2 on Day 1 of each cycle for 6 cycles. Cycles will be 21 days for a total of 6 cycles. Curative intent surgery will be performed within 6 weeks (maximum 12 weeks) time frame upon completion of last dose of chemoimmunotherapy. The surgical pathology information will be used for assessment of pathological response, which serve as the primary endpoint of this study. Patients will undergo assessment at baseline, C1D1 of each cycle and end of treatment visit for collection of treatment-emergent adverse events, evaluated by CTCAE v5.0. Patient reported outcomes will be collected at cycles 1, 4, and 6, and at EOT. All study patients will be followed for at least 5 years for EFS and OS follow up. Research biopsies, peripheral blood and stool samples will be collected at the following time points: baseline, C4D1 (+/-14 days), and surgery (+/-14 days). Baseline and EOT breast MRI will be performed as standard of care for assessment of clinical response. Mid treatment breast ultrasound (C4D1 +/-14 days) will be repeated as standard of care to assess clinical response to treatment. Mid-treatment C4D1 tumor biopsy may be omitted if the primary tumor is no longer visible or the tumor deemed too small for biopsy by radiologist.

Intratumoral INT230-6 Followed by Neoadjuvant Immuno-chemotherapy in Patients With Early TNBC. INVINCIBLE-4-SAKK

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.

BAL0891 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

The study will also identify a recommended dose for expansion (RDFE) for BG-68501 as monotherapy and in combination for subsequent disease directed studies. The study will be conducted in 2 parts: Part 1 (dose escalation and safety expansion, including evaluation of food effect) and Part 2 (dose expansion).

Evaluating Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Through Longitudinal Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) Profiling in Breast Malignancies

For patients with breast cancer, it's important to find any remaining cancer cells after they've had their main treatment. Even a few cells, called minimal residual disease (MRD), can lead to the cancer coming back later. A way to find these cells is by looking for tiny bits of cancer DNA that are shed into the blood. This is called circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). A simple blood test, often called a liquid biopsy, can detect this ctDNA. This research aims to see if finding this cancer DNA in the blood can help predict if a patient's cancer will return. It also may help find out if the treatment is working. Ultimately, the results of this research may help doctors better manage breast cancer and develop new and improved tests and treatments.

SBRT Combined With PD-1 Inhibitor and Chemotherapy in Early-stage TNBC

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.

A Phase 1/2 Trial of TC-510 In Patients With Advanced Mesothelin-Expressing Cancer

TC-510 is a novel cell therapy that consists of autologous genetically engineered T cells expressing two synthetic constructs: first, a single-domain antibody that recognizes human Mesothelin, fused to the CD3-epsilon subunit which, upon expression, is incorporated into the endogenous T cell receptor (TCR) complex and second, a PD-1:CD28 switch receptor, which is expressed on the surface of the T cell, independently from the TCR. The PD-1:CD28 switch receptor comprises the PD-1 extracellular domain fused to the CD28 intracellular domain via a transmembrane domain. Thus, the switch is designed to produce a costimulatory signal upon engagement with PD-L1 on cancer cells.
