BRIA-ABC Trial Summary

This trial evaluates a new treatment for advanced breast cancer with no other alternatives available.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with advanced metastatic or locally recurrent breast cancer who have no other treatment options. Eligible patients must have failed prior therapy, not be suitable for local treatments, and meet specific criteria if they have brain metastases. They cannot join if they've had recent chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, certain abnormal lab values, a history of other malignancies or immune conditions, unresolved toxicity from previous therapies, or are pregnant.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares the Bria-IMT regimen combined with retifanlimab (a checkpoint inhibitor) to treatments chosen by physicians in patients with late-stage breast cancer. It's an open-label trial where participants know which treatment they're receiving and aims to see which method improves overall survival when standard therapies aren't available.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the immune system such as inflammation in various organs due to retifanlimab; cyclophosphamide might cause nausea, hair loss and lower blood cell counts; interferon can lead to flu-like symptoms; plus risks associated with physician-chosen treatments.

BRIA-ABC Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Bria-IMT Regimen AloneExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
The Bria-IMT regimen: Day -2 or -3 Cyclophosphamide 300mg/m2 Day 0 SV-BR-1-GM given intradermally divided into 4 inoculations Day 1-3 CPI infusion plus interferon administered intra-dermally within each SV-BR-1-GM inoculation site
Group II: Bria-IMT Regimen + CPIExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
The Bria-IMT regimen: Day -2 or -3 Cyclophosphamide 300mg/m2 Day 0 SV-BR-1-GM given intradermally divided into 4 inoculations Day 1-3 CPI infusion plus interferon administered intra-dermally within each SV-BR-1-GM inoculation site
Group III: Treatment of Physician's ChoiceActive Control1 Intervention
TPC consists of eribulin, carboplatin, capecitabine, gemcitabine, vinorelbine or taxanes in accordance with the investigators' and institutional standard of care. The specific details of the selected regimen must include every detail of administration including frequency, sequencing (for multi-agent regimens), duration of infusion or oral administration, planned dose, dose prescribed, dose administered, dose adjustments after initial prescription or start of TPC treatment, and any other change in TPC from its initial election prior to randomization.
