Abstract

Simple Summary: Among the different types of breast cancers, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a poor prognosis and is the most difficult type to treat by monotherapy due to the absence of common targeting receptors. In our review, we focused on the current advanced combination therapies, which include immunotherapy and chemotherapy, immunotherapy and gene therapy, and nanotechnology-based combination therapies for TNBC treatment. Additionally, we discussed the therapeutic outcomes of in vivo studies and clinical trials of the combination therapies. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), lacking specific receptors found in other breast cancer subtypes, poses significant treatment challenges due to limited therapeutic options. Therefore, it is necessary to develop novel treatment approaches for TNBC. In the last few decades, many attempts have been reported for alternative tools for TNBC treatment: immunotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, combination therapy, and nanotechnology-based therapy. Among them, combination therapy and nanotechnology-based therapy show the most promise for TNBC treatment. This review outlines recent advancements in these areas, highlighting the efficacy of combination therapy (immunotherapy paired with chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or radiotherapy) in both preclinical and clinical stages and nanotechnology-based therapies utilizing various nanoparticles loaded with anticancer agents, nucleic acids, immunotherapeutics, or CRISPRs in preclinical stages for TNBC treatment.
