A Study of 9MW2821 Versus Chemotherapy in Participants With Previously Treated Locally Advanced or Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

April 28, 2026 updated by: Mabwell (Shanghai) Bioscience Co., Ltd.

A Randomized, Open-label, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate 9MW2821 Versus Investigator's Choice of Chemotherapy in Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Who Have Previously Received Taxane-based Chemotherapy With or Without Immunotherapy and an Antibody-drug Conjugate With a Topoisomerase Inhibitor Payload

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 9MW2821 versus investigator's choice of chemotherapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have previously received taxane-based chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy and an antibody-drug conjugate with a topoisomerase inhibitor payload
