- NCT05372640RecruitingPhase 1
Drug combo trial for rare cancers with shared NUT features
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and early signs of effectiveness of combining two anti-cancer drugs (ZEN003694 and abemaciclib) in teens and adults with metastatic or unresectable NUT carcinoma, breast cancer, and other solid tumors. It may help by finding a safer dose and whether the drug combination can shrink or control tumors that do not respond to standard treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT05412225RecruitingPhase 1
Pre-surgery radiation, then mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction
This Phase 1 study looks at giving radiation before surgery for people with locally advanced breast cancer, then performing a mastectomy and immediate reconstruction. It aims to see whether this combined approach can shrink the cancer before surgery and safely allow reconstruction afterward.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05388149RecruitingPhase 2
Neratinib plus Kadcyla to treat leftover HER2 breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding neratinib to Kadcyla (T-DM1) can help eliminate “molecular residual disease,” meaning tiny traces of cancer left after surgery and standard HER2 treatment. It’s for adults with HER2-positive breast cancer who still test positive after a short course of Kadcyla, with no signs of cancer returning or spreading on scans.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05350722Recruiting
Single pre-surgery radiation for low-risk breast cancer
This trial tests a single, shorter course of radiation given before breast surgery for people with low-risk, hormone-receptor–positive breast cancer. It may help treat the breast tumor while reducing the number and length of radiation treatments.
SydneyAges 40 years+ - NCT05305924RecruitingPhase 2
Fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER+, HER2− advanced breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding abemaciclib to fulvestrant can slow or shrink ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. It is mainly for people whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor and an aromatase inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05304962RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug RGT-419B for advanced ER+ HER2- breast cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a new drug (RGT-419B), given alone or with hormone (endocrine) therapy, in people with advanced ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has progressed after standard treatments. It looks mainly at safety and early signs of how well the treatment may work.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04965766RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for HER2-negative, advanced breast cancer after prior treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests patritumab deruxtecan (U3-1402) in people with HER2-negative, hormone-receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It’s for cancers that have progressed despite endocrine therapy plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor, aiming to shrink tumors and control the disease.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT05142800Recruiting
Screening for Lymphedema in Breast Cancer Targeted Therapy
This study is looking at whether targeted therapy for breast cancer changes the risk of arm swelling (lymphedema). It is a screening trial that uses a machine to measure arm size and check for any swelling early on.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT05095207RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Abemaciclib and bicalutamide for HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether combining abemaciclib with bicalutamide can slow or shrink HER2-negative, androgen receptor–positive (AR-positive) metastatic breast cancer. It mainly looks at safety and side effects, and also whether the combination can help patients with this type of breast cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 18–90 - NCT05072314RecruitingPhase 3
Lidocaine drip after breast surgery to improve long-term pain
This Phase 3 study tests whether a long-running lidocaine (a numbing medicine) drip given around the time of breast surgery can improve long-term post-surgery pain and recovery. It may help people who have pain after mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery.
Kingswood, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05029999RecruitingPhase 1
Test drugs for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of immune-targeting drugs (a CD40 medicine and a substance that helps immune cells act) plus chemotherapy in people with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has progressed. It aims to find a safer dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–99 - NCT05020574RecruitingPhase 2
Study how the microbiome may affect breast implant infections
This Phase 2 study looks at whether changes in the body’s “microbiome” (the normal germs in and on the body) are linked to infections after breast surgery with implants. It may help doctors better predict and prevent implant infections in people undergoing mastectomy with immediate implant placement.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05042687Recruiting
Compare a breast imaging scan with MRI in high-risk women
This study compares two ways of imaging the breast—molecular breast imaging (a scan that uses a small radioactive tracer) and standard breast MRI—to better find or rule out breast cancer. You may join if you are considered high risk and already have a breast MRI planned, and you can do both tests close together.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04886531RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery neratinib plus hormone therapy with trastuzumab
This study tests whether a pre-surgery treatment plan that adds neratinib to hormone therapy and trastuzumab can shrink HER2-positive, ER-positive breast cancer before surgery. It may help patients by improving how much cancer is eliminated at the time of surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04916990Recruiting
Care program for rural adults with several lung and head cancers
This study looks at how to improve care for adults with certain cancers who live in rural areas and may face access problems. It mainly focuses on people receiving cancer treatment at specific Colorado-area hospitals, and who are uninsured or underinsured.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–99 - NCT04771520RecruitingPhase 2
Avapritinib for tumors with specific KIT or PDGFRA changes
This Phase 2 trial studies avapritinib, a targeted medicine, for people whose cancer has specific KIT or PDGFRA genetic changes. It may help shrink or slow growth of certain advanced cancers, including some brain tumors, when standard treatments have not worked or for specific glioblastoma cases.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04768426RecruitingPhase 2
Watching DNA in blood while taking capecitabine after breast cancer
This trial checks how a blood test that looks for cancer DNA (ctDNA) changes during and after you take capecitabine after early triple-negative breast cancer. It aims to see whether these blood test results can help monitor the chance of the cancer coming back.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04683679RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus pembrolizumab and olaparib for certain breast cancers
This study tests whether adding the drugs pembrolizumab and olaparib (or similar “radiosensitizers”) to radiation can improve outcomes for women with advanced breast cancer that is triple-negative or ER-positive/Her2-negative. It’s designed for cancers that have spread or come back and where radiation is being considered to control disease.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04495244Recruiting
Identifying breast cancer through a blood test
This study tests a blood test designed to help find breast cancer. It may help detect the disease earlier, which could make treatment more effective.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 30–75 - NCT04523857RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib and hydroxychloroquine after breast cancer relapse risk
This Phase 2 trial tests whether abemaciclib plus hydroxychloroquine can kill tiny “leftover” cancer cells in the bone marrow after standard breast cancer treatment. It may help lower the chance of cancer coming back by targeting minimal residual disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04529044RecruitingPhase 2
177Lu-DOTATATE for advanced breast cancer with targeted receptors
This Phase 2 trial tests whether 177Lu-DOTATATE can slow or shrink stage IV or recurrent breast cancer. It targets tumor “receptors” found on scans, using a radioactive medicine that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells.
Portland, OregonAges 18–100 - NCT04501419Recruiting
