Neoadjuvant Therapy for Early Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: A Response-Guided Approach Using Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab Injection in Combination With Chemotherapy
China40 participantsStarted 2026-04-05
Plain-language summary
Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab Injection (QL1706) is a bifunctional combination antibody targeting both programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4). This is a prospective clinical study that plans to enroll screened, eligible early-stage breast-cancer patients to receive neoadjuvant QL1706 plus chemotherapy (four cycles of TP ± four cycles of AC). After the four TP cycles, imaging and core biopsy will be performed. Patients who achieve radiologic complete response will proceed directly to surgery; those who do not will receive four additional AC cycles before surgery. A key feature is the incorporation of an response-guided neoadjuvant therapy（RGN）model to identify sensitive patients who can forgo anthracyclines, thereby reducing long-term cardiotoxicity.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Voluntarily join this study, sign the informed consent form, and demonstrate good compliance;
* Age: 18-75 years old (at the time of signing the informed consent form);
* ECOG PS score: 0-1; expected survival time exceeding 6 months;
* Patients with primary breast cancer confirmed by histopathological or cytological examination;
* Primary tumor diameter \> 2 cm as measured by local standard assessment methods;
* Judged by the investigator to meet the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition breast cancer TNM staging criteria as cT2-cT4, cN0-cN3, cM0, with locally advanced or early-stage, unilateral, and histologically confirmed invasive breast cancer;
* Histopathologically confirmed early-stage triple-negative invasive breast cancer as defined by the latest ASCO/CAP guidelines;

* PD-L1 expression status is known;
* Major organ functions are in good condition;
* Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 3 days prior to the first dose. If a female subject of childbearing potential engages in sexual activity with a non-sterilized male partner, the subject must use acceptable and effective contraception from screening onward and agree to continue these precautions until 12 months after the last dose of the study dru…
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?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
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.
