Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 18-70 years with HR-negative/HER2-negative breast cancer and brain metastases, suitable for radiotherapy and platinum-based chemotherapy, with adequate organ function and performance status.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients whose tumors do not respond to the combination or who experience intolerable toxicity may not benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This open-label, multicenter phase II trial explores whether adding adebrelimab and bevacizumab to radiotherapy with platinum-based chemotherapy is safe and effective for patients with HR-negative/HER2-negative breast cancer and brain metastases who are not candidates for curative surgery or radiotherapy. The study uses two treatment arms and follows patients to assess responses and safety across participating centers. Eligible participants are adults aged 18 to 70 with good performance status and confirmed brain metastases, including at least one untreated intracranial lesion ≥1.0 cm. Prior platinum exposure is allowed only if platinum sensitivity criteria are met. The lead sponsor is Fudan University, with the trial conducted at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the regimen could improve brain-local control and overall outcomes for patients with TNBC and brain metastases.
How similar studies have gone: Prior studies with similar approaches in advanced breast cancer have shown signals of activity, but this exact combination in TNBC with brain metastases is investigational.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥18 years and ≤70 years, gender not limited; 2. ECOG score 0-2; 3. Pathologically confirmed HR-negative/HER2-negative breast cancer patients with evidence of local recurrence or metastasis, unsuitable for curative surgical resection or radiotherapy; HR-negative is defined as ER-negative and PR-negative, with positive tumor cells accounting for \<10% of all tumor cells; 4. Must not have previously used platinum-based drugs, or must have previously used platinum-based drugs (cisplatin or carboplatin and only one regimen) and meet the following definition of platinum sensitivity: no progression during at least 4 cycles of platinum-based therapy, and subsequent disease progression occurring more than 3 months after the last platinum-based therapy; 5. Expected survival ≥8 weeks; 6. MRI confirms brain metastasis, with at least one previously untreated intracranial brain parenchymal metastatic lesion with a longest diameter ≥1.0 cm;If the brain metastatic lesion has previously undergone radiotherapy, MRI is required to confirm progression after radiotherapy. 7. Provide sufficient fresh tissue specimens or tumor samples (primary lesion and/or metastatic lesions) ≥10 slides before treatment (preferably brain metastatic lesion specimens) for biomarker analysis. 9\. Patients receiving mannitol, corticosteroids, or anticonvulsants prior to the first dose are eligible for enrollment if the doses of these concomitant medications have been stable for at least 1 week without escalation, and neurological symptoms have remained stable for ≥1 week. 10\. Organ function levels must meet the following requirements:1) Complete blood count:• ANC ≥1.5×10⁹/L;• PLT ≥75×10⁹/L;• Hb ≥90 g/L (blood transfusion or drug treatment is allowed to ensure hemoglobin levels);2) Coagulation function: INR ≤1.5, APTT ≤1.5×ULN; PT not exceeding the upper limit of normal.3) Blood Biochemistry: • TBIL ≤ 1.5 × ULN;• ALT and AST ≤ 3 × ULN (liver metastases ≤ 5.0 × ULN);• Cr ≤ 1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula);3) Echocardiography: LVEF ≥ 50%;4) 12-lead ECG: Fridricia-corrected QT interval (QTcF) \< 470 ms for women and \< 450 ms for men; 10. Voluntary participation in this study, signing informed consent, good adherence, and willingness to cooperate with follow-up. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Leptomeningeal metastases or cystic metastases confirmed by MRI or lumbar puncture; 2. Presence of third-space effusion (e.g., massive pleural effusion and ascites) that cannot be controlled by drainage or other methods; 3. Received whole-brain radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or surgery within 2 weeks prior to treatment with the investigational drug, or received endocrine therapy within one week prior to treatment; 4. Previous use of bevacizumab and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, excluding the following: no disease progression during bevacizumab and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor use, investigators believe no drug resistance has been confirmed, and continued use would benefit the subject; short-term bevacizumab use to relieve cerebral edema; 5. Participation in other drug clinical trials within 2 weeks prior to enrollment; 6. Concurrent anti-tumor treatment for any other tumor; 7. History of other malignancies within the past 5 years, excluding cured cervical carcinoma in situ, basal cell carcinoma of the skin, or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin; 8. History of any heart disease, including: (1) arrhythmia requiring medication or of clinical significance; (2) myocardial infarction; (3) heart failure; (4) any other heart disease deemed unsuitable for participation in this trial by the investigator; 9. A known history of allergy to any component of the medications in this regimen; 10. A history of immunodeficiency, including a positive HIV test, active hepatitis B/C, or other acquired or congenital immunodeficiency diseases, or a history of organ transplantation; 11. A history of a defined neurological or psychiatric disorder, including epilepsy or dementia; 12. Pregnant or lactating women, women of childbearing age with a positive baseline pregnancy test, or patients who do not wish to use effective contraception throughout the trial; 13. In the investigator's judgment, a serious comorbidity that would jeopardize patient safety or affect the patient's ability to complete the study (including but not limited to severe hypertension uncontrolled by medication, severe diabetes, active infection, thyroid disease, etc.); 14. Any other circumstances deemed unsuitable for participation in this study by the investigator.
