Phase 1 / Phase 2: testing Patritumab deruxtecan for Breast Neoplasms

Researchers want to learn if patritumab deruxtecan (MK-1022) can treat certain breast cancers. The breast cancers being studied are HER2 positive unresectable locally advanced or metastatic (the cancer has spread to other parts of the body).

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06686394 · Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC · enrollment listed as 181

What this phase means

Phase 2: researchers already know a roughly safe dose (from phase 1). This stage asks whether the treatment actually helps the condition, and watches side effects more closely.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

If you join, the listed intervention(s) are Patritumab deruxtecan, Trastuzumab, or Trastuzumab Biosimilar. The registry lists allocation as randomized. Researchers want to learn if patritumab deruxtecan (MK-1022) can treat certain breast cancers.

They plan to enroll about 181 people at 18 sites. Taking part typically means an infusion or injection of a biologic plus check-ins.
