Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are females aged 18-75 with newly diagnosed, early or locally advanced triple negative breast cancer.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with metastatic breast cancer or those who have received prior anti-tumor therapies may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of a combination therapy involving camrelizumab, apatinib, and chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment for patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Participants will receive these treatments before surgery to assess how well the therapy reduces tumor size and improves outcomes. The study focuses on patients with early or locally advanced TNBC, specifically those with tumor stages II-III. The goal is to determine if this combination can enhance treatment efficacy compared to standard approaches.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a more effective neoadjuvant therapy option for patients with triple negative breast cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with similar combination therapies in treating triple negative breast cancer, indicating potential for success.
