Summary

This trial will test the combination of INCMGA00012 and pelareorep to treat patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with metastatic triple negative breast cancer who've had 1-2 prior systemic therapies. They must not be pregnant, have certain blood and organ function levels within set limits, and agree to use two forms of contraception if of childbearing potential. Exclusions include lung disease history, more than three prior treatments in the metastatic setting, known severe allergies to study drugs or components, recent serious cardiovascular events, untreated brain metastases among others.
What is being tested?
The IRENE Study is testing INCMGA00012 (a monoclonal antibody targeting PD-1) combined with pelareorep (a naturally occurring virus that may destroy cancer cells) against metastatic triple negative breast cancer. The phase 2 trial aims to assess safety and effectiveness while also requiring quality-of-life assessments through questionnaires.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects could include immune system reactions due to INCMGA00012's action on PD-1 which might cause inflammation in various organs. Pelareorep being a virus could lead to flu-like symptoms or other infection-related issues. Specific side effects will depend on individual patient responses.
