Summary

This trial aims to test a new way of giving approved drugs to treat metastatic breast cancer to see if it could be more effective than the current method.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with metastatic breast cancer. Participants should be suitable to receive the study drugs, which are all approved treatments. Specific eligibility criteria were not provided, so interested individuals should contact the study team for more details.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a new treatment strategy using existing drugs: Abemaciclib, Sacituzumab govitecan, Trastuzumab deruxtecan, Xeloda (capecitabine), Taxotere (docetaxel), Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide), Fulvestrant and Ribociclib. The goal is to see if administering these drugs sequentially based on evolutionary dynamics can improve outcomes in metastatic breast cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include nausea, fatigue, hair loss from chemotherapy agents like Taxotere and Cytoxan; diarrhea and hand-foot syndrome from Xeloda; low blood cell counts from most of these medications; liver issues from Abemaciclib; allergic reactions or infusion-related symptoms from monoclonal antibodies like Trastuzumab deruxtecan.
