Summary

This trial is studying sacituzumab govitecan to see how well it works in treating patients with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain. They must have measurable brain metastasis, experienced CNS progression after treatment, and be in good physical condition (Zubrod status 0 or 1). Patients should not have had more than two seizures recently, no recent certain treatments or infections like HIV/hepatitis, and cannot be pregnant.
What is being tested?
The trial tests Sacituzumab Govitecan's effectiveness on patients with brain metastases from breast cancer. It's a targeted therapy combining an antibody with chemotherapy to attack cancer cells directly without harming normal cells.
What are the potential side effects?
Sacituzumab Govitecan may cause side effects such as nausea, fatigue, hair loss (alopecia), low blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, and potential allergic reactions due to its monoclonal antibody component.
