Sacituzumab Govitecan: Patients receive Sacituzumab Govitecan 10mg/kg by intravenous infusion on days 1 and 8. Treatment cycles are every 21 days.
Pemetrexed: Intrathecal pemetrexed chemotherapy, administered via intracerebroventricular or lumbar puncture, consists of three phases: induction therapy (15 mg twice weekly for 2 weeks), consolidation therapy (once weekly for 4 consecutive weeks), and maintenance therapy (once monthly).
Study summary
Leptomeningeal metastases (LM) is a lethal complication of malignant tumors, characterized by tumor cell invasion and proliferation within the subarachnoid space. LM from HER2-negative breast cancer remains challenging to treat, with a median overall survival of only 3-6 months despite aggressive therapy. This open-label, uncontrolled Phase I/II clinical study aims to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and potential efficacy of Sacituzumab Govitecan in combination with intrathecal pemetrexed chemotherapy for LM from HER2-negative breast cancer, with the objective of identifying a more effective treatment strategy.

2. Presence of serious and/or uncontrolled comorbidities that may affect participation: 1) Allergy to study drugs or adjuvant materials; 2) History of immunodeficiency (e.g., HIV-positive or other acquired or congenital immunodeficiency disease); 3) Severe concomitant diseases;

Primary outcome measure(s)
Maximal tolerated dose — From the beginning of the treatment until two months after the treatment. DLT was defined as Grade 3 neurological toxicities (e.g., chemical meningitis) or any Grade 4 toxicity. If DLT occurred in more than two patients at a given dose level, that dose level was deemed intolerable, and the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) was exceeded. In such cases, an additional three patients were treated at the next lower dose level. The MTD was defined as the dose level at which 0/3 or 1/6 patients experienced DLT, given that at least two patients experiencing DLT at the higher dose.
