Clinical Trials Nuhad Ibrahim is currently running
Abemaciclib + Elacestrant
for Brain Metastasis from Breast Cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, elacestrant and abemaciclib, in patients with a specific type of breast cancer. It aims to find the best dose and see how well it works for those whose cancer has spread to the brain. The drugs work by blocking signals that help cancer cells grow and divide. Abemaciclib is a drug that has been approved for the treatment of certain advanced breast cancers.

Sacituzumab Govitecan
for Brain Metastases from Breast Cancer
This phase II trial studies the effect of sacituzumab govitecan in treating patients with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Sacituzumab govitecan is a monoclonal antibody, called sacituzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called govitecan. Sacituzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules on the surface of cancer cells, known as Trop-2 receptors, and delivers govitecan to kill them. Giving sacituzumab govitecan may shrink the cancer in the brain and/or extend the time until the cancer gets worse.
