JSKN003 versus physician's choice chemotherapy for HER2-low advanced breast cancer
Official title: A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label, Active-Controlled Trial Of JSKN003 Versus Treatment Of Physician'S Choice For HER2-low, Unresectable and/or Metastatic Breast Cancer Subjects
Run by Jiangsu Alphamab Biopharmaceuticals Co., Ltd · NCT06079983 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial will test whether the experimental drug JSKN003 works better than standard single‑agent chemotherapies for adults with HER2‑low, unresectable or metastatic breast cancer who have had one or two prior chemotherapy regimens.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with unresectable locally recurrent or metastatic HER2‑low breast cancer (IHC 1+ or 2+/ISH‑), who have received one or two prior chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease, have at least one measurable extracranial lesion, ECOG 0–1, expected survival ≥3 months, and can provide archived tumor tissue and informed consent.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with HER2‑positive disease (IHC 3+ or ISH+), those who have received more than two prior lines of chemotherapy, have poor performance status (ECOG >1), very limited expected survival, or cannot provide required tissue are unlikely to benefit from this protocol.

What this trial studies
This is a randomized, open‑label, multicenter phase III study enrolling 408 participants and using stratified block randomization to assign patients 1:1 to JSKN003 monotherapy or investigator's choice single‑agent chemotherapy. Eligible participants have HER2‑low disease (IHC 1+ or 2+/ISH‑) and have progressed after one or two prior lines of chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic disease. The control options include capecitabine, gemcitabine, vinorelbine, docetaxel, albumin‑bound paclitaxel, or eribulin as single agents. The trial measures efficacy and safety outcomes to compare the experimental agent against commonly used chemotherapy options.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If effective, JSKN003 could provide a more effective single‑agent treatment option that delays disease progression or improves clinical outcomes for patients with HER2‑low advanced breast cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other programs targeting HER2‑low disease, most notably trastuzumab deruxtecan in DESTINY‑Breast04, have shown meaningful clinical benefit in this population, indicating the general approach has precedent even though JSKN003 itself is a different agent.
