Sacituzumab Govitecan
for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
This trial is testing a drug called sacituzumab govitecan-hziy, which targets and kills cancer cells. It focuses on patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who have limited treatment options. The drug works by attaching to cancer cells and releasing a substance that kills them. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy is an FDA-approved treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, especially for patients who have already tried other treatments.

Contrast-Enhanced Mammography
for Breast Abnormalities
One of the primary criticisms of mammography is that it leads to unneeded stress and anxiety from identification and biopsy of non-cancerous findings. Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) has the potential to significantly reduce biopsy rates for commonly seen benign breast lesions while preserving very high cancer detection. The investigators propose a prospective clinical study of patients with diagnostic mammograms rated as BIRADS 4A or 4B and scheduled for a biopsy, in which, prior to undergoing their scheduled biopsy, a CEM procedure is performed. The investigators will test the primary hypothesis that for soft tissue lesions (i.e. masses, asymmetries, architectural distortions) initially rated BI-RADS 4A/4B adding CEM will reduce, by at least 20%, the number of biopsy recommendations for actually benign cases and, at the same time, provide a negative predictive value (NPV) higher than 95%.

Giredestrant + Hormone Therapy
for Early-Stage Breast Cancer
This trial is testing giredestrant, a medication given after initial treatment to prevent breast cancer from returning. It focuses on patients with a specific type of early-stage breast cancer that is hormone-driven and at higher risk of recurrence. Giredestrant works by blocking the hormone estrogen from helping cancer cells grow. Giredestrant has shown promise in previous studies.
