Research explores how breast cancer spreads and new ways to treat it
Date:8/3/2011

mmune responses capable of halting the growth of and directly killing human breast cancer cells that are resistant to trastuzumab. Duke researchers, in seeking to prepare and submit an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), have demonstrated through preclinical research that the vaccine is potent, does not cause tumor development, and is compatible with lapatinib, another treatment specifically targeting HER2+ breast cancer. Both viral vectors are currently undergoing preclinical toxicology studies and are expected to enter the clinic in the third quarter of 2011.

"Patients with HER2+ breast cancer often face the reality of relapse," said Dr. Kim Lyerly of Duke University Medical Center. "We are excited about continuing this translational-based, cutting-edge vaccine strategy, and potentially bringing them a new way to fight the disease."
