This trial is a registrational Phase III, randomized, open-label, multicenter study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of BL-B01D1 in combination with a PD-1 monoclonal antibody versus nab-paclitaxel in combination with a PD-1 monoclonal antibody in patients with PD-L1-positive, previously untreated, inoperable locally advanced or recurrent metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

Combination Immunotherapy Treatment for Locally Advanced Unresectable or Metastatic, PD-L1 Negative (CPS<10), gBRCA Negative, Triple Negative Breast Cancer Including BreakVax ImmunoTreatment (Designed and Manufactured Per Patient), Chemotherapy and Anti PD-1 Therapy

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and preliminary antitumor activity of this multi-component immunotherapy strategy in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study is designed to assess whether coordinated enhancement of antigen-specific T-cell priming and tumor microenvironment modulation can improve immune-mediated tumor control. In this study, BreakVax with adjuvants (Montanide and Poly-ICLC) is administered in combination with: 1. Low-dose subcutaneous ipilimumab at the injection site as a dendritic cell adjuvant to enhance local dendritic cell-mediated T-cell priming; 2. Pembrolizumab to mitigate PD-1-mediated T-cell exhaustion and sustain effector function; 3. Standard-of-care chemotherapy, which may promote immunogenic cell death, increase antigen release and modulate the tumor microenvironment; and 4. Losartan and aspirin, which have been associated in preclinical and translational studies with modulation of stromal architecture, vascular normalization, and reduction of tumor-associated immunosuppressive signaling. The study consists of two components: a Safety Lead-in Cohort and a randomized combination therapy cohort. The Safety Lead-in Cohort is designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of the study combination and to characterize dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). The randomized combination therapy cohort portion is designed to evaluate the antitumor activity of the study combination compared with standard-of-care (SOC) chemotherapy of physician's choice, as measured by objective response rate (ORR), and to evaluate disease control rate (DCR) in patients who receive the study combination following progression on SOC chemotherapy.

Survival Outcomes of Residual Disease in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer associated with a poor prognosis. Although neoadjuvant therapy improves outcomes in patients who achieve a pathological complete response, the presence of residual disease after treatment remains associated with an increased risk of recurrence and death. This retrospective cohort study aims to evaluate the survival outcomes of patients with residual disease following neoadjuvant therapy for TNBC and to assess the association between clinicopathological characteristics and survival outcomes, including disease-free survival and overall survival

Metabolic Flexibility in Patients With Early Triple-negative Breast Cancer

Cancer is considered a major global public health problem. It was estimated that in 2022 approximately 19.9 million new cancer cases were diagnosed worldwide, and this number is expected to increase over the next two decades to 28.0 million (1). Specifically, breast cancer (BC) represents the highest incidence worldwide, with approximately 2.3 million new cases diagnosed in 2022 (1). A higher incidence of BC is observed in developed countries, which may be due to high rates of obesity, alcohol and tobacco consumption, early onset of puberty, the use of contraceptives and hormonal therapies, low levels of physical activity, and giving birth at later ages (2,3). In addition to the factors mentioned above, hereditary factors and age also represent risk factors for cancer development (2,3). Finally, the presence of family members with breast and/or ovarian cancer carrying mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes, among others, which increase the likelihood of tumor proliferation, as well as age over 40 years, also increase the probability of developing BC (2,3). Specifically, there is a molecular subtype that does not respond to hormonal receptors or HER2 and may be more aggressive and have fewer specific treatment options, known as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Metabolic flexibility (MF) is described as the ability of the body to adapt to energy demands in different contexts. During chemotherapy and after surgery, significant changes may occur, such as increased body fat, loss of muscle mass, cancer-related fatigue, metabolic alterations, and decreased quality of life. These changes may persist even years after treatment and may affect both well-being and recovery. It could therefore be suggested that metabolic flexibility in muscle fibers in patients with TNBC may be reduced, particularly in patients undergoing systemic treatment, with potential difficulties adapting to different intensities and energy demands in daily life. A decrease in muscle metabolic flexibility would also imply a reduction in muscle strength and physical function, significantly impairing quality of life. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to analyze muscle metabolic flexibility at different stages of early disease and to evaluate whether different types of exercise training can improve these outcomes. To achieve this, assessments will be conducted at four time points during the early stages of the disease: at diagnosis, after neoadjuvant treatment, after surgery, and following an exercise intervention. The assessments will include blood analyses, body composition measurements, cycling exercise tests to evaluate oxygen consumption and the utilization of fat and glucose, measurements of muscle strength, and questionnaires assessing fatigue and quality of life. After surgery, participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups for 12 weeks: a control group receiving general physical activity recommendations; a moderate-intensity cardiovascular exercise group focused on maximal fat oxidation; a high-intensity interval cardiovascular exercise group; and a progressive resistance training group. The final objective is to determine which type of exercise most effectively improves metabolic flexibility, muscle strength, body composition, and overall well-being. Participation in the study is voluntary and does not affect standard medical care. All assessments and training sessions will be supervised by qualified exercise professionals to ensure participant safety.

Real-World Study of Post-Resistance Treatment Strategies in Advanced Breast Cancer Following CDK4/6i, PIK3CA Inhibitors, or T-DXd

This is a real-world observational study aiming to evaluate the effectiveness of post-progression treatment strategies in patients with advanced breast cancer who have developed resistance to prior targeted therapies, including CDK4/6 inhibitors, PIK3CA inhibitors, trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), or other targeted agents commonly used in clinical practice. As resistance to these therapies becomes increasingly common, optimal sequencing strategies for subsequent treatment remain unclear. This study will collect clinical information on post-resistance systemic treatments and their outcomes, including progression-free survival, overall survival, and response rate. Baseline patient and tumor characteristics will also be collected to explore potential prognostic and predictive factors and to develop outcome prediction models that may help guide future clinical decision-making. This is a non-interventional study based on retrospective and prospective data from routine medical care. The results are expected to provide real-world evidence to inform personalized treatment strategies for patients with advanced breast cancer following resistance to targeted therapies.
