Plain-language summary
This phase I trial is to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of NHS-IL12 given together with bintrafusp alfa and radiation therapy in treating patients with hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with NHS-IL12, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Immunotherapy with bintrafusp alfa, a bifunctional fusion protein composed of the monoclonal antibody avelumab and TGF-beta, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving NHS-IL12, bintrafusp alfa, and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1
* Women of childbearing potential must be using an adequate method of contraception to avoid pregnancy throughout the study and for up to 8 weeks after the last dose of investigational product in such a manner that the risk of pregnancy is minimized. Men on study also must be using contraception. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) are women who have not been postmenopausal greater than 1 year or undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy
* Has confirmed HR+ and HER2 negative breast cancer with known metastatic disease. Eligible patients must have estrogen receptor (ER) and/or progesterone (PR) expression 10% or greater by immunohistochemistry (IHC). HER2 negative or nonamplified is determined by the current American Society of Clinical Oncology- College of American Pathologists (ASCO-CAP) criteria which are as follows: HER2 testing by IHC as 0 or 1+. If HER2 is 2+, ISH (in situ hybridization) must be performed. HER2 is positive if:
* IHC 3+ based on circumferential membrane staining that is
* Complete, intense
* ISH positive based on:

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
