Nivolumab in combination with cabozantinib for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer: a phase II and biomarker study

Abstract This single-arm phase II study investigated the efficacy and safety of cabozantinib combined with nivolumab in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC). The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) by RECIST 1.1. Biopsies at baseline and after cycle 1 were analyzed for tum...
