TREND-02 - a Phase II Exploratory De-escalation Trial of Neoadjuvant Sacituzumab Govitecan Plus Tislelizumab (SG/I) in Early Triple-negative Breast Cancer

Overview

Refining neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy and establishing predictive biomarkers remain pivotal challenges in early TNBC. Although SG/I (sacituzumab govitecan/PD-1 inhibitor) shows clinical promise, validation of responder identification tools is warranted. This phase II trial aims to identify a precision TNBC population suitable for de-escalated neoadjuvant therapy with sacituzumab govitecan plus tislelizumab, based on differential Trop-2 expression (±) and PD-L1 status (CPS \>10% vs. \<10%). Primary endpoints include pCR rate and safety; exploratory biomarker analyses will assess mechanisms of response/resistance

Interventions

• Drug SG+I
  SG 10mg/kg， d1,d8 q3w + I 200mg, d1 q3w 6 cycles （18 weeks）

Primary outcome measures

• pathological complete response (pCR) rate [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 24 weeks]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

History of other primary malignancies with known active disease within 3 years prior to randomization and low potential for recurrence (excluding adequately excised non-melanoma skin cancers and treated carcinoma in situ); 3. Active or documented history of autoimmune or inflammatory diseases; 4. Presence of distant metastases; 5. Active or uncontrolled hepatitis B or C infection, uncontrolled HIV infection, or active tuberculosis; 6. History of interstitial lung disease, drug-induced interstitial lung disease, radiation pneumonitis requiring steroid therapy, any clinically active interstitial lung disease, or immune-related pneumonitis induced by immunotherapy; 7. Any prior or concurrent surgery, radiotherapy, or systemic anticancer therapy for TNBC; 8. Prior exposure to the following treatments: Immunosuppressive drug therapy within 14 days before the first study intervention Live attenuated vaccines within 30 days before the first study intervention
