Triple Negative Breast Cancer Trial Phases
45 research organizations are sponsoring triple negative breast cancer trials.
About Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) lacks estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and excess HER2 protein, limiting targeted treatment options. It accounts for about 10-15% of breast cancers and tends to be more aggressive. Active research focuses on immunotherapy and novel drug combinations.
Clinical trials are advancing new treatments for triple negative breast cancer. Currently, 63 studies are recruiting a combined 15,541 participants across the United States. Research is being conducted by 45 organizations including University of Kansas Medical Center, SWOG Cancer Research Network, Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC and 42 others.

Shorter Chemo-Immunotherapy Without Anthracycline Drugs for Early-Stage Triple Negative Breast Cancer
This phase III trial compares the effects of shorter chemotherapy (chemo)-immunotherapy without anthracyclines to usual chemo-immunotherapy for the treatment of early-stage triple negative breast cancer. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called anti-microtubule agents. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinu...
Sacituzumab Tirumotecan (MK-2870) Plus Pembrolizumab Versus TPC in TNBC Who Did Not Achieve pCR (MK-2870-012)
This is a randomized, open-label study comparing the efficacy and safety of adjuvant sacituzumab tirumotecan (MK-2870) in combination with pembrolizumab compared to treatment of physician's choice (TPC) in participants with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who received neoadjuvant therapy and did not achieve a pathological complete response (pCR) at surgery. The primary objective is to compare...
