• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2026-02-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Female

Summary

This is a phase I open-label dose escalation trial of FWD1802 as monotherapy and in combination with palbociclib in patients with ER+/HER2- unresectable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer The goal of this clinical trial] is to learn about in ER+/HER2- BC participant population. The main questions it aims to answer are:

• Establish the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) and/or the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of FWD1802 as monotherapy and in combination with palbociclib in patients with ER+/HER2- unresectable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

• Explore the safety and tolerability of FWD1802 as monotherapy and in combination with Palbociclib.

• Characterise Pharmacokinetics of FWD1802 as monotherapy and in combination with palbociclib.

• Explore preliminary efficacy signals.

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No
