Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18) with HER2-positive advanced or metastatic breast cancer who progressed on prior trastuzumab deruxtecan, have measurable disease, ECOG 0–1, and adequate organ function are eligible.

Probably not a fit

Patients with prior exposure to RC48, active infections, a history of interstitial lung disease, uncontrolled comorbidities, or poor organ function are unlikely to benefit or be eligible.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

RADIANT-BC01 is a multicenter Phase II, randomized 1:1 trial testing disitamab vedotin (RC48) combined with either bevacizumab or pyrotinib in patients who progressed on T-Dxd. Participants receive RC48 plus bevacizumab intravenously every two weeks or RC48 plus daily oral pyrotinib, with treatment continued until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal. The study uses parallel Simon two-stage cohorts for each arm to screen for sufficient objective responses, with ORR as the primary endpoint and PFS, DCR, DOR, OS, and safety as key secondary endpoints. Exploratory biomarker analyses are planned to explore mechanisms of response and resistance.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the combinations could provide new options that shrink tumors or delay progression for patients who no longer respond to T-Dxd.

How similar studies have gone: Early studies and real-world data have shown encouraging activity for RC48 and preclinical data support combining it with anti-angiogenic agents or HER family TKIs, but the specific post-T-Dxd combinations remain relatively untested in controlled trials.
