Brief summary
This is a Phase Ib/II, open-label, multi-cohort, multi-center study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of GB268, a biological product, as monotherapy or in combination with other therapies in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic breast cancer.
Detailed description
The Phase Ib part of the study will primarily assess the safety and tolerability of GB268 in combination therapies, including dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). The Phase II part will primarily evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor activity of GB268 as monotherapy and in various combination regimens in corresponding breast cancer populations.
Interventions
GB268 is a tri-specific antibody targeting PD-1, CTLA-4, and VEGF. It is designed to block immune checkpoints (PD-1/CTLA-4) to enhance T-cell-mediated anti-tumor immune responses and simultaneously inhibit VEGF-mediated tumor angiogenesis
Nab-Paclitaxel is a microtubule-stabilizing agent formulated as albumin-bound nanoparticles for IV administration.
Datopotamab Deruxtecan is an ADC targeting Trop-2, consisting of a monoclonal antibody linked to a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload.
A Trop-2-directed Antibody-Drug Conjugate \[ADC\] consisting of a humanized anti-Trop-2 monoclonal antibody covalently linked to a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload.
