Dr. Linda Vahdat is seeking women 18 years of age or older, diagnosed with metastatic triple negative breast cancer for a research study.
This clinical trial is for women with metastatic triple negative breast cancer (mTNBC). This means that the three most common types of receptors (estrogen, progesterone, and human epidermal growth factor [HER2]) known to fuel most breast cancer growth are not present in their cancer.

Dr. Linda Vahdat speaks with MDLinx about copper depletion research in triple negative breast cancer.
“Copper is an interesting element. It’s involved in multiple biologic processes, which are important for tumor progression both within the tumor itself and within the tumor microenvironment. In the tumor microenvironment, it facilitates tumors doing their bad things,” explained lead author Linda T. Vahdat, MD, MBA, professor of medicine, Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian, and director of the Breast Cancer Research Program and co-leader of the Breast Cancer Program, Meyer Cancer Center, New York, NY.

Dr. Linda Vahdat is seeking volunteers for a new research study in triple negative breast cancer.
This clinical trial is for women with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC). This means that the three most common types of receptors (estrogen, progesterone, and human epidermal growth factor [HER2]) known to fuel most breast cancer growth are not present in their cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of eribulin mesylate (“eribulin”) in combination with pembrolizumab in metastatic (spread of cancer from one part of body to another) triple-negative breast cancer.
