Study Summary

This trial is testing the safety and efficacy of two immunotherapy drugs in combination with standard chemotherapy to treat metastatic triple negative breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic triple negative breast cancer who have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. They should be in their first to third line of treatment and may have had up to two prior regimens. Participants must not be pregnant, agree to use contraception, and cannot have certain health conditions or treatments that would conflict with the trial.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if combining immunotherapy drugs CDX-301 and CDX-1140 with standard chemotherapy PLD is safe and effective against this type of breast cancer. It aims to find the right dose and schedule for these drugs while also observing how they affect the body's immune response to cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions typical for immunotherapies such as fatigue, allergic responses, possible organ inflammation, as well as those associated with chemotherapy like nausea, hair loss, low blood counts leading to increased infection risk.
