A Phase 2 study testing Adebrelimab, Apatinib and Etoposide in people with HER2-negative Breast Cancer Brain Metastases, run by Beijing 302 Hospital at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
Some studies have shown that approximately 15% of patients with advanced hormone receptor (HR) positive breast cancer and 1/3 of triple negative breast cancer will develop brain metastasis. At present, there is no unified drug treatment standard for HER2-negative breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM). Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Adebrelimab Plus Apatinib and Etoposide for the Treatment of HER2-Negative Breast Cancer Brain Metastasis: A Phase II Study
Some studies have shown that approximately 15% of patients with advanced hormone receptor (HR) positive breast cancer and 1/3 of triple negative breast cancer will develop brain metastasis. At present, there is no unified drug treatment standard for HER2-negative breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM). The evidence of single traditional chemotherapy drug as the main treatment of brain metastasis is not sufficient. Some exploratory studies on HER2-negative BCBM have shown that the central nervous system objective response rate (CNS-ORR) of anti-angiogenic drugs combined with chemotherapy is around 55%-80%。 Adebrelimab (a humanized PD-L1 monoclonal antibody) specifically blocks the binding of PD-1 and PD-L1, terminates the immunosuppressive signal produced by T cells, and makes T cells re-recognize tumor cells and kill them, thereby inhibiting tumor growth. In China, Adebelizumab has been approved for using in combination with chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for extensive stage small cell lung cancer. Apatinib (a small molecule VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor) mainly plays an anti-angiogenic effect in the treatment of malignant tumors by inhibiting VEGFR. Apatinib has been approved monotherapy for advanced gastric adenocarcinoma or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that has progressed or relapsed after at least two systematic chemotherapies, advanced liver cancer that has failed or is intolerable after at least first-line systematic treatment, and first-line treatment in patients with unresectable or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma combined with camrelizumab.
Due to the lack of effective drug therapy for HER2-negative BCBM, a variety of treatment combinations are still being explored. We hypothesized that adebrelimab plus apatinib and etoposide is an explorable and effective treatment for HER2- negative BCBM.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Adebrelimab, Apatinib and Etoposide in people with HER2-negative Breast Cancer Brain Metastases, run by Beijing 302 Hospital at 1 site in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Jinmei Zhou, Doctor (+86-010-66947250, jinzhu2714@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
CNS-ORR (time frame: 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Dec 2024.
