Clinical Trials

SWOG S1418 - A Randomized, Phase III Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MK-3475 (Pembrolizumab) as Adjuvant Treatment for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer with >1 cm Residual Invasive Cancer or Positive Lymph Nodes After Neoadjuvant Therapy.

 

The purpose of this study is to compare the usual approach (i.e. no more treatment or additional post-operative chemotherapy), to any effects, good and/or bad, of the experimental drug MK-3475(also called pembrolizumab) after surgery. This study will allow researchers to know whether treatment with MK-3475 is better, the same, or worse than the usual approach.
