AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT03521830RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab and other immunotherapy for advanced basal cell skin cancer
This study tests how well the immunotherapy medicine nivolumab works—either by itself or combined with other immune-boosting drugs—for people with advanced basal cell carcinoma that can’t be removed by surgery or has spread. It’s also looking at what to do if the cancer grows again after an earlier immunotherapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04589468Recruiting
Exercise for cancer survivors at high risk
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help prevent cancer from coming back in people who have been treated for certain solid tumors (colorectal, ovarian, lung, or breast cancer). If you've completed surgery and adjuvant therapy within the past 2 years and are currently not exercising much, you may be eligible. Participation involves following an exercise plan and regular check-ins.
Durate, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05975593Recruiting
Study how radiation affects tumor biology in cervical or pancreatic cancer
This study looks at how radiotherapy changes the tumor environment, using lab samples collected during treatment. It may help researchers understand why radiation works differently for different people and could improve future treatment planning.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04959474Recruiting
Pre-surgery radiation study with or without calorie restriction
This trial looks at whether a planned calorie-reduction diet before surgery can change how early breast cancer responds to a short course of radiation. It may help people understand if diet could improve outcomes alongside standard pre-surgery treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 40 years+ - NCT07188246RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation and immunotherapy before chemo for breast cancer
This trial tests a new approach for breast cancer that combines a short course of focused radiation (SBRT) with an injection of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab directly into the tumor, followed by standard chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink the tumor more effectively before surgery.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05929768RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy without anthracyclines for early TNBC
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a shorter course of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy can work as well as standard treatment for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. It avoids anthracycline drugs and may help reduce exposure to those medicines if the shorter plan is effective and safe.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04816006Recruiting
Breast cancer, thinking, and exercise study
This trial tests whether exercise can help thinking and reasoning in women over 50 who have had early-stage breast cancer. It compares a moderate exercise program with health education sessions.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT07595874RecruitingPhase 2
New Immunotherapy Drugs Before Surgery for Advanced Colorectal Cancer
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (botensilimab and balstilimab) given before surgery to treat advanced colorectal cancer that can be removed. The goal is to help the immune system fight cancer cells and improve outcomes after surgery.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07191717RecruitingPhase 2
Imlunestrant and abemaciclib for early ER+ breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding two targeted drugs, imlunestrant and abemaciclib, to your usual hormone therapy can lower the chance of your breast cancer coming back. It is for people with early-stage ER+ breast cancer who have no signs of cancer on scans but have tiny amounts of tumor DNA in their blood (called ctDNA).
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05919108RecruitingPhase 2
Neratinib before surgery for HER2-mutated invasive lobular breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests neratinib given before surgery to treat stage I–III invasive lobular breast cancer that has a specific HER2 mutation and is hormone-receptor positive. It may help shrink the tumor and improve control of cancer before and after surgery.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05396612Recruiting
Studying the immune response in non-cancer-spread breast surgery
This study looks at how your immune system changes while you receive standard breast cancer treatment around the time of surgery. The goal is to learn why some people respond better than others, which could help future treatment choices.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05512364RecruitingPhase 3
Elacestrant for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer with ctDNA relapse
This trial tests whether elacestrant can help stop or delay breast cancer coming back in people whose blood test shows “ctDNA relapse” after early breast cancer treatment. It’s meant for hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer patients who are already taking hormone (endocrine) therapy and have no visible spread on scans.
AnderlechtAges 18 years+ - NCT07483307RecruitingPhase 2
Hormone therapy before surgery for lobular breast cancer
This trial tests whether taking hormone therapy before surgery can improve outcomes for women with a specific type of breast cancer called lobular breast cancer. If you qualify, you would receive endocrine therapy for 6 months before your planned breast-conserving surgery.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 50 years+ - NCT06997068RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combination for returning head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—methotrexate, erlotinib, and celecoxib—for people whose head and neck cancer has come back or spread. It is designed for patients in the rural Midwest who have already had or chosen not to have standard first treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06028737RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Chemotherapy before surgery for advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs given before surgery for locally advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. It aims to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
VilniusAges 18–80 - NCT07474090Recruiting
Personalized Exercise Program for Breast Cancer Survivors
This study tests whether a personalized exercise program during chemotherapy helps breast cancer survivors recover better and feel stronger. You'll use a smartphone app to do guided workouts at home while getting support from exercise coaches.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–85 - NCT07631052RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose Capecitabine for High-risk Early Breast Cancer
This study tests whether a low-dose chemotherapy pill called capecitabine can help prevent breast cancer from coming back in patients whose cancer shows signs of remaining disease (called MRD) despite standard treatment. The trial focuses on hormone-receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancers.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07482384Recruiting
Support program for young women with early-stage breast cancer
This study tests a mobile health program that provides support and information to young women with early-stage breast cancer who are on hormone therapy. The goal is to help you stay on your treatment and manage side effects.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–49 - NCT07443943RecruitingPhase 2
Potato starch supplement for joint pain from hormone therapy
This trial studies whether a dietary supplement made from resistant potato starch can help reduce joint and muscle pain in people who are about to start aromatase inhibitor therapy for breast cancer or high risk. You take the supplement daily and report how you feel over 24 weeks.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges Any age - NCT05288777RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing follow-up chemo and radiation for high-risk breast cancer
This trial studies a standard follow-up treatment plan that combines chemotherapy and radiation after surgery, and it looks for blood/tissue “biomarkers” that predict who benefits most. If you have high-risk breast cancer that didn’t fully disappear after initial (neoadjuvant) chemo, you may be eligible to help guide better future treatment choices.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06681064Recruiting
Tracking breast cancer changes during pre-surgery treatment
This study looks at how breast cancer changes while you are receiving chemotherapy or targeted therapy before surgery. The goal is to better understand which treatments work best for different types of breast cancer.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05982093RecruitingPhase 2
Elacestrant with or without triptorelin for premenopausal breast cancer
This trial tests a new hormone-blocking pill (elacestrant) with or without a shot that temporarily stops ovaries (triptorelin) for premenopausal women with early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer. It aims to find a gentler treatment option before surgery.
