Recruiting studies
- NCT03572374Recruiting
Sharing breast cancer treatment plans with your workplace
This study tests tools to help people talk with employers and medical staff about breast cancer treatment while working. It aims to improve how treatment and job needs are discussed so patients can get support.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18–64 - NCT06127979Recruiting
Hormone therapy before surgery for breast cancer
This study looks at how a hormone-blocking medicine (endocrine therapy) given before surgery affects a marker called Ki67 in your breast cancer cells. The goal is to see if the medicine can slow the growth of the cancer, which may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05704829RecruitingPhase 2
Trastuzumab-deruxtecan before surgery for HER2-positive early breast cancer
This trial compares giving trastuzumab-deruxtecan before surgery versus standard chemotherapy plus trastuzumab and pertuzumab. It aims to see which approach works better to shrink or control HER2-positive early breast cancer and improve outcomes.
Baden-Baden, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06830889RecruitingPhase 3
BL-M07D1 vs T-DM1 for HER2-positive breast cancer after neoadjuvant therapy
This trial tests whether a new drug called BL-M07D1 works better than an existing drug, T-DM1, for people with HER2-positive breast cancer who still have cancer cells after initial treatment (neoadjuvant therapy). The goal is to prevent the cancer from coming back.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT05559164RecruitingPhase 2
Statins to protect the heart during HER2 breast cancer treatment
This trial tests whether a cholesterol medicine (a statin) can lower the risk of heart damage in people receiving HER2-targeted breast cancer therapy. If you qualify, you may be given a statin and followed with heart tests and blood work to watch for safety and benefit.
Elizabeth, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06673329RecruitingPhase 1
Brodalumab for immune-related side effects from cancer treatment
This trial tests if brodalumab, an antibody that blocks a specific immune pathway (IL-17), can help control side effects caused by immunotherapy cancer treatment. It is for people with advanced solid organ cancers who have immune-related side effects that are suspected to involve IL-17.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07376174Recruiting
HER2-positive breast cancer and dual-target therapy study
This study looks at how well a combination of two targeted drugs (trastuzumab and pertuzumab) works for people with HER2-positive breast cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to understand how HER2 levels affect treatment outcomes after surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07281001Recruiting
Trastuzumab deruxtecan study for breast cancer patients
This study looks at how well the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan works in women with breast cancer that has spread. It is for patients who have already taken this drug.
MoscowAges 18–80 - NCT00437879Recruiting
Ultrasound and MRI scans to track breast cancer response early
This study uses ultrasound and/or MRI scans to see how breast cancer responds early while you start “neoadjuvant” treatment (chemotherapy, with or without radiation before surgery). It may help doctors spot response sooner and better understand which imaging changes match treatment benefit.
Toronto, OntarioAges Any age - NCT06330012Recruiting
Understanding resistance to T-Dxd in HER2+ breast cancer
This study looks at why some HER2-positive breast cancer patients stop responding to the drug T-Dxd (trastuzumab deruxtecan). It aims to find out how resistance develops, which may help improve future treatments.
SeoulAges Any age - NCT07829848Recruiting
Skip extra radiation for breast cancer patients who respond well to treatment
This trial tests whether women and men with advanced, non-metastatic breast cancer can safely skip an extra radiation boost to the lymph nodes if their tumors respond well to pre-surgery chemotherapy or targeted therapy. The goal is to reduce side effects while keeping cancer control.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05635487RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer with SHR-A1811
This trial tests whether SHR-A1811 alone, or together with pyrotinib, given before surgery, can shrink HER2-positive breast cancer. It may help you respond better to treatment while making surgery easier.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT07551050Recruiting
Sacituzumab Govitecan for Advanced HER2-Negative Breast Cancer
This trial studies how well sacituzumab govitecan (a targeted cancer drug) works for metastatic breast cancer that is HER2-negative. The study focuses on real-world patient experiences and quality of life in Chinese patients.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07500012Recruiting
Ear nerve stimulation for breast cancer pain
This study tests whether gentle electrical stimulation of a nerve in your ear (called taVNS) can help reduce pain and improve symptoms for breast cancer survivors. You would need to have finished your main treatments, have ongoing pain, and be willing to provide stool samples and undergo brain scans.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 18–79 - NCT07396324RecruitingPhase 2
A new drug before surgery for HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This trial tests whether the drug QL1706, given before surgery, can help treat hormone receptor positive and HER2-negative breast cancer. It is for people who have not yet had cancer spread to other parts of the body.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07237256RecruitingPhase 3
Testing less chemo for HR+ HER2- breast cancer with ribociclib
This trial tests whether some people with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer can safely receive less chemotherapy when also taking the targeted drug ribociclib after surgery. You may qualify if you have a specific stage of breast cancer and are planning to take hormone therapy for at least 5 years.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT02422641RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose methotrexate for breast cancer in the brain lining
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving high-dose methotrexate into the bloodstream can help treat breast cancer that has spread to the thin lining covering the brain and spinal cord. It may help reduce cancer in the leptomeningeal (brain-lining) area and control symptoms.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05263570Recruiting
Real-world treatment planning for stage II–III HR+ HER2+ breast cancer
This trial looks at how well a standard “neoadjuvant” treatment plan works in real-world patients. It is for people newly diagnosed with stage II–III HR+ breast cancer and aims to see whether treatment gives expected outcomes in everyday care.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18 years+ - NCT05935384Recruiting
Blood tests to track response to cancer therapy
This study follows how cancer responds to standard (usual) treatment by using blood samples and de-identified health data. It may help researchers understand whether “liquid biopsy” blood testing can reflect how well therapy is working.
Skokie, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06555588Recruiting

Immunotherapy and targeted therapy trial for advanced gastric cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs: carilizumab (an immunotherapy) and apatinib (a targeted therapy) for patients with unresectable stage III or IV gastric cancer that has a specific DNA repair problem (dMMR). The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07393555RecruitingPhase 2

Axillary lymph node surgery choices for HER2+ and triple-negative breast cancer
This study examines the best surgical approach for removing underarm lymph nodes in patients with HER2-positive or triple-negative breast cancer who have received chemotherapy before surgery and still have cancer in their lymph nodes. The goal is to understand whether removing more lymph nodes improves outcomes for these patients.
