Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06042569RecruitingPhase 2
Lower-dose chemo for older women with HER2-negative breast cancer
This trial tests whether a lower dose of two chemotherapy drugs (docetaxel and cyclophosphamide) works well for women 65 and older with early-stage HER2-negative breast cancer. The goal is to maintain effectiveness while reducing side effects in this group.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 65 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.

Study of heart-risk management for metastatic HER2 breast cancer

Winchester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06498635RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy after surgery for lung cancer with no remaining cancer
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy (durvalumab) after surgery can help prevent lung cancer from coming back if you already had a complete response to chemo and immunotherapy before surgery. It is for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who had no cancer left after treatment.

You stay in control
