Sac-TMT plus KL-A167 for PD-L1–positive, hormone receptor–positive/HER2–negative metastatic breast cancer after CDK4/6 inhibitors
Official title: A Phase II Study of Sacituzumab Tirumotecan (Sac-TMT) Combined With Tagitanlimab(KL-A167) in PD-L1-Positive, Hormone Receptor-Positive/HER2-Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients Previously Treated With CDK4/6 Inhibitors
Run by Sun Yat-sen University · NCT07258108 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This treatment combines Sac-TMT and KL-A167 to see if it can control disease in people with PD-L1–positive, HR+/HER2– metastatic breast cancer whose disease progressed after CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18–75 with PD-L1–positive, HR+/HER2– metastatic breast cancer who progressed during or within 12 months after CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy (or on CDK4/6 for metastatic disease), have at least one measurable lesion, ECOG 0–1, and adequate organ function.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with PD-L1–negative tumors, HER2‑positive disease, poor performance status, significant comorbid organ dysfunction, or prior intolerance to similar agents are unlikely to benefit from this regimen.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This is a prospective, single-arm Phase II trial enrolling 35 patients with PD-L1–positive, HR+/HER2– metastatic breast cancer previously treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors. Patients receive intravenous Sac-TMT (5 mg/kg) plus KL-A167 (900 mg) every two weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint is the 6-month progression-free survival rate by investigator assessment using RECIST v1.1, with secondary endpoints including PFS, ORR, DCR, DoR, OS, and safety. Tumor assessments are every 6 weeks for the first 6 months then every 12 weeks, and an exploratory analysis will correlate TROP2 and PD-L1 expression with outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If effective, this combination could extend progression-free survival and offer a new treatment option for patients who progressed after CDK4/6 inhibitors.
How similar studies have gone: TROP2-directed therapies and PD‑1/PD‑L1 immunotherapies have shown activity in subsets of breast cancer, but this exact combination in PD-L1–positive, HR+/HER2– patients after CDK4/6 inhibitors is a novel approach with limited prior data.
