Summary
This trial tests the combination of ribociclib and bicalutamide in patients with advanced AR+ triple-negative breast cancer. The drugs aim to stop cancer growth by blocking hormones and proteins that the cancer cells need to multiply.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced AR+ triple-negative breast cancer who haven't had certain treatments, have no active brain metastases, and whose major organs function well. They must not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to use contraception, and can swallow pills. Excluded are those with recent heart issues, strokes, uncontrolled conditions that could affect safety or compliance, known HIV infection or other active cancers needing treatment.
What is being tested?
The study tests ribociclib in combination with bicalutamide on patients with a specific type of breast cancer (AR+ TNBC). It's an open-label phase II trial without randomization or blinding. Participants will receive both drugs to see how effective this combo is against their cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include nausea, fatigue, low blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems; liver issues; potential heart rhythm problems; allergic reactions; and possible interactions with other medications.

Research Highlights
Information in this section is not a recommendation. We encourage patients to speak with their healthcare team when evaluating any treatment decision.Mechanism Of Action
Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
Ribociclib is a CDK4/6 inhibitor that blocks proteins essential for cell cycle progression, thereby halting cancer cell proliferation. Bicalutamide is an androgen receptor antagonist that prevents androgens from stimulating cancer cell growth.
These mechanisms are crucial for patients with androgen receptor-positive breast cancer, as they target specific pathways involved in cancer growth, leading to more personalized and effective treatments.
