Summary

This trial will test the safety and effectiveness of BNT327 at two different doses when combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who haven't had systemic therapy for metastatic disease. They must have completed any prior treatment over 6 months ago, provide a recent tumor sample, and have at least one measurable lesion. Those with certain previous treatments or only one targetable lesion may not qualify.
What is being tested?
The study tests BNT327's safety and effectiveness in two doses combined with chemotherapy (Taxane A/B, Antimetabolite, Alkylating agent) for first- or second-line treatment of metastatic breast cancer. It's an open-label Phase II trial assessing how the body processes the drug too.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, common ones from similar therapies include nausea, fatigue, hair loss from chemotherapy; plus potential unique reactions to BNT327 which will be closely monitored.
