This study looks at how your immune system changes while you receive standard breast cancer treatments. The researchers measure immune-related signals during your treatment to better understand what may be happening in triple-negative or certain hormone-receptor breast cancers.
BesançonAges 18–85 - NCT07137416RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new combination of cancer drugs for HER2-positive tumors and breast cancer
This trial tests the safety of combining two drugs, CX-5461 (Pidnarulex) and Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd), in people with HER2-positive solid tumors or certain types of breast cancer. If you have advanced cancer that hasn't responded to other treatments, this study may be an option.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06970912RecruitingPhase 2
ctDNA-Guided Reduced Chemo in HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer
This study is testing whether using a ctDNA blood test can help doctors decide if patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer can safely receive less intensive chemotherapy after surgery. The goal is to reduce side effects while still preventing the cancer from coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT06726148RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ECI830 for advanced breast cancer and solid tumors
This trial is testing a new drug called ECI830, either alone or with another drug, for people with advanced breast cancer or other solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It may be an option if you have HR+/HER2- breast cancer, small cell lung cancer, or a tumor with a specific gene change (CCNE1 amplification).
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT07366112RecruitingPhase 2
CDK4/6 inhibitor plus hormone therapy before breast cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of a CDK4/6 inhibitor (a type of targeted therapy) with hormone therapy given before surgery for early-stage breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative. It aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07600164RecruitingPhase 4
Real-world study of pyrotinib treatment for advanced HER2-positive breast cancer
This study follows patients with advanced breast cancer that has a protein called HER2 to see how well pyrotinib (a targeted drug) works when used in routine clinical practice. You'd be tracked over time to understand how this treatment affects your cancer and quality of life.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07238894Recruiting
Freezing and heating breast cancer without surgery
This study tests a combination of freezing and heating (cryoablation and thermal ablation) to treat breast cancer in patients who cannot have surgery. It may help shrink or control tumors while avoiding general anesthesia.
BeijingAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT04960839Recruiting
Preventive radiation to the other breast after breast cancer surgery
This study looks at whether “preventive” radiation to your other (opposite) breast can lower the chance of future breast cancer in people at higher genetic risk. You must have had surgery for early-stage breast cancer and agree to avoid removing the other breast and ovaries.
Jiangxi, JiangxiAges 30–70 - 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+ - NCT04983121RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant pyrotinib plus ARX788 for HER2-positive breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether combining pyrotinib with ARX788 given before surgery can work better and be safe in people with HER2-positive breast cancer. It’s designed for tumors that did not respond well enough to earlier trastuzumab and pertuzumab treatment.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT04985058Recruiting
Study of abemaciclib plus hormone therapy in breast cancer
This study uses real-world health records to learn about outcomes in people with hormone-receptor positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who were treated with abemaciclib along with hormone (endocrine) therapy. It may help doctors better understand how well this treatment works outside of clinical trials.
AthensAges 18 years+ - NCT05007379Recruiting
Testing new immune cells on breast cancer samples in the lab
This trial studies whether newly made immune cells (“CAR-macrophages”) can attack breast cancer when tested on your tumor samples grown in the lab (“organoids”). If you need surgery or a tumor biopsy as part of your usual care, your sample may be used to test this approach.
LilleAges 18–100 - 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+ - NCT05020860RecruitingPhase 2
Study how early breast cancer responds on imaging and under a microscope
This Phase 2 study looks at how well early breast cancer shrinks with treatment and how that matches with what doctors find after surgery under the microscope. The goal is to learn better ways to predict and assess treatment success.
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 - NCT05032768Recruiting
Study links between skin bacteria and radiation skin reactions
This study looks at how changes in the skin’s normal bacteria (microbiome) relate to getting redness, irritation, or rash after breast radiation. It may help doctors predict who is more likely to have skin side effects after reconstruction and radiation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05035745RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor plus talazoparib for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests selinexor plus talazoparib in people with advanced, treatment-resistant solid tumors and, separately, advanced triple-negative breast cancer. It aims to see whether this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth when standard options have not worked.
SingaporeAges 18–99 - NCT05035836RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug after early HER2-positive breast cancer surgery
This trial tests zanidatamab, a type of targeted antibody treatment, in people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer to see how well it works and how safe it is. Because it’s a single-arm pilot study, everyone in the study gets the drug, and you’ll likely be asked to undergo standard surgery if appropriate.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
