Brief Title: Pembrolizumab, IRX-2, and Chemotherapy in Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Official Title: Induction Immunotherapy to Promote Immunologic Priming and Enhanced Response to Neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy in Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)
Study ID: NCT04373031
Brief Summary: This is a Phase II, randomized, open-label trial to evaluate the clinical and immunologic activity of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy when combined with various immunotherapy induction regimens as neoadjuvant therapy for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).
Detailed Description: This is a Phase II, randomized, open-label trial to evaluate the clinical and immunologic activity of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy when combined with various immunotherapy induction regimens as neoadjuvant therapy for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). A commonly used standard neoadjuvant regimen for TNBC is a weekly taxane (e.g., paclitaxel 80mg/m2) for 12 weeks followed by an anthracycline (e.g., doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 plus cyclophosphamide at 600 mg/m2 \[AC\]) every 3 weeks (Q3W) for 4 cycles. The chemotherapy regimen included in this study is built upon the aforementioned regimen. Pembrolizumab in combination with this regimen will be studied as part of a multi-arm study that randomizes subjects to receive: * Control Arm: (Pembro + ACT): Pembrolizumab induction (single-dose 200mg IV), followed by pembrolizumab Q3W + paclitaxel (T) weekly x 4 cycles, followed by pembrolizumab + doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide (AC) Q3W x 4 cycles as neoadjuvant therapy prior to surgery. * Arm A: (Pembro + IRX-2 + ACT): Pembrolizumab (single-dose 200mg IV) + cyclophosphamide (single-dose 300 mg/m2 IV) + IRX-2 induction (1mL SQ x 2 daily, x 10 days), followed by pembrolizumab Q3W + paclitaxel (T) weekly x 4 cycles, followed by IRX-2 re-induction (1mL SQ x 2 daily, x 10 days), followed by pembrolizumab + doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide (AC) Q3W x 4 cycles as neoadjuvant therapy prior to surgery. * Subsequent induction therapy arms are to be included in protocol amendments. Note: 1 cycle = 21 days
