    Summary of Research

    Triple-negative breast cancer is an aggressive clinical subset of breast cancer. There is a high unmet medical need for new therapeutic approaches to manage advanced triple negative breast cancer. However, triple negative breast cancer has been shown to respond better to immunotherapy than other Advanced Breast Cancer subtypes. Therefore, immunotherapy has gained much interest as an option to treat triple negative breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine whether LAG525 and spartalizumab given with or without carboplatin, or LAG525 given in combination with carboplatin is effective and safe for patients with triple negative breast cancer (breast cancer cells tested negative for estrogen receptors (ER-), progesterone receptors (PR-), and HER2 (HER2-). The study will include approximately 96 adult patients, as first or second line therapy, in 25 centers worldwide. During the study visits/assessments patients will receive the medication and undergo to physical examinations, collection of blood samples for standard laboratory testing, Urine collection, pregnancy test, eletrocardiogram, cardiac imaging and imaging examination. Patients will remain in the study until disease progression, unaccepted adverse event, death, withdrawal of consent or study is terminated by the sponsor.
