SAN ANTONIO– Roughly one in five women with heavily pretreated, advanced triple-negative breast cancer experienced a response to monotherapy using the novel immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab in KEYNOTE-012, a small proof-of-concept study.
In a video interview at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, Dr. Rita Nanda, who presented the results, describes the long duration of that response, more than 40 weeks in most of the women, all of whom had received multiple lines of chemotherapy. Dr. Nanda of the University of Chicago also commented on the possible study of pembrolizumab against other subtypes of breast cancer and on possible combination regimens.
