Subgroup analysis by PD-L1 tumor expression status indicated better efficacy outcomes in patients with PD-L1+ tumors versus those with PD-L1− tumors [ORR, 28.4% (95% CI: 18.5–40.1) vs 17.3% (95% CI: 9.6–27.8); PFS, 4.2 months (95% CI: 3.5–6.1) vs 3.9 months (95% CI: 2.3–4.4)...in patients with PD-L1+ tumors, the study-drug combination also demonstrated promising antitumor activity in patients with PD-L1− tumors. These results support further clinical development of eribulin plus pembrolizumab as a potential antitumor strategy for patients with mTNBC.
