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.
