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.

CoREST Inhibitor + Anti-PD-1 Therapy

for Solid Cancers

This trial is testing a new drug, TNG260, combined with an existing cancer treatment, pembrolizumab, in patients with advanced solid tumors that have an STK11 mutation. TNG260 aims to block proteins that help cancer grow, while pembrolizumab boosts the immune system to fight the cancer. Pembrolizumab has been shown to be an effective and safe therapeutic option for various advanced cancers, including endometrial cancer and melanoma. The study will determine the best dose, safety, and effectiveness of this combination.

Disitamab Vedotin + Tucatinib

for Breast Cancer

This clinical trial is studying solid tumor cancers. A solid tumor is one that starts in part of your body like your lungs or liver instead of your blood. Once they've grown bigger in one spot or spread to other parts of the body, they're harder to treat. This is called advanced or metastatic cancer. Participants in this study must have breast cancer or gastric cancer. Participants must have tumors that have HER2 on them. This allows the cancer to grow more quickly or spread faster. There are few treatment options for patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that express HER2. This clinical trial uses an experimental drug called disitamab vedotin (DV). Disitamab vedotin is a type of antibody drug conjugate or ADC. ADCs are designed to stick to cancer cells and kill them. This clinical trial uses a drug called tucatinib, which has been approved to treat cancer in the United States and some other countries. This drug is sold under the brand name TUKYSA®. This study will test how safe and how well DV, with or without tucatinib, is for participants with solid tumors. This study will also test what side effects happen when participants take these drugs. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease.
