Combining FWD1802 with CDK4/6 inhibitors or everolimus for ER+/HER2- advanced breast cancer
Official title: An Open-label, Multicenter, Phase Ib/II Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Multiple Combination Therapies With FWD1802 in Subjects With ER-positive/HER2-negative Unresectable Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer
Run by Forward Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. · NCT07002177 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial tests whether adding FWD1802 to CDK4/6 inhibitors or everolimus helps people with ER-positive/HER2-negative unresectable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who have progressed on or cannot use standard therapy.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults with histologically confirmed ER-positive/HER2-negative unresectable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who progressed on or were intolerant of standard therapies and agree to biomarker blood sampling and, if applicable, LHRH agonist therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with HER2-positive disease, early-stage resectable breast cancer, or those unable to tolerate CDK4/6 inhibitors, everolimus, or required blood sampling/hormone suppression are unlikely to benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This Phase Ib/II interventional study explores multiple combination regimens pairing the investigational agent FWD1802 with approved targeted therapies (palbociclib, ribociclib, abemaciclib, or everolimus) in patients with ER+/HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Dose-finding and safety lead the early phase portions, with expansion cohorts to measure anti-tumor activity and biomarkers. Participants must provide blood for centralized ESR1 mutation and other biomarker testing and meet prior-therapy criteria related to endocrine treatment. The study is single-site listed at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center and enrolls patients who can comply with the protocol and required sample collection.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the combinations could extend disease control or overcome endocrine resistance in patients with ER+/HER2- advanced breast cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Combining CDK4/6 inhibitors with endocrine therapy has improved outcomes in ER+ metastatic breast cancer, but adding novel agents like FWD1802 remains experimental and less tested.
