Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04069884Recruiting
Avoid extra lymph-node radiation for certain node-positive breast cancers
This trial tests a way to decide whether you can safely receive less radiation to lymph nodes after surgery for breast cancer that has spread to nearby nodes. If you qualify as “low risk,” the goal is to reduce radiation exposure while keeping cancer control safe.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT04074720Recruiting
Collecting breast cancer tissue and blood samples
This study collects tissue and/or blood samples from people with breast cancer to help future research. It may be useful if you’re already having surgery or another procedure as part of your treatment plan.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04084730RecruitingPhase 2
3-day radiation after breast-conserving surgery for certain breast cancers
This trial tests whether a shorter, 3-day course of partial breast radiation after surgery works as well as standard radiation for women with early-stage breast cancer. It may help reduce time in treatment while aiming to keep cancer from coming back in the treated breast area.
Norwalk, ConnecticutAges 45 years+ - NCT04090567RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib with two partners for advanced BRCA breast cancer
This trial tests whether the drug olaparib works better when combined with cediranib or AZD6738 in people with advanced or metastatic BRCA (inherited) breast cancer. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth after prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04109079Recruiting
Best surgery plan for breast cancer lymph nodes after chemotherapy
This study looks at the safest and most useful way to remove and check breast-cancer lymph nodes in the armpit after you finish chemotherapy given before surgery. It may help you avoid unnecessary surgery while still getting accurate information about how well the treatment worked.
DublinAges 18 years+ - NCT04136782RecruitingPhase 4
Tests two chemo drug combinations for triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 4 trial compares two chemotherapy combinations to treat stage II–III triple-negative breast cancer. It looks for which regimen works better and is tolerated in people with measurable tumors and good overall health.
Harbin, HeilongjiangAges 18–70 - NCT04138719RecruitingPhase 2
Test two chemotherapy combos before breast surgery for triple-negative cancer
This trial compares two different chemotherapy combinations given before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy) for people with triple-negative breast cancer. It looks to see which drug combination works better to control the cancer before and around the time of the operation.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18–70 - NCT04150042RecruitingPhase 1
Test of chemotherapy plus your own stem cells for metastatic cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a treatment approach using standard chemotherapy along with stem cells taken from you to treat metastatic pancreatic or breast cancer. It is mainly designed to check safety and find the best way to give the treatment, and it may offer an option for people whose cancer has spread.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04159818RecruitingPhase 2
Adding immune treatments to improve checkpoint drug response in TNBC
This Phase 2 trial tests strategies meant to “prime” the immune system so that immune checkpoint medicines may work better in people with triple-negative breast cancer that has spread (or can’t be fully cured). You might be considered if your cancer has measurable areas that can be biopsied and you meet specific health and prior-treatment rules.
