New York, New YorkAges 65 years+ - NCT05848141Recruiting
Rowing program after breast cancer treatment
This study looks at whether supervised rowing exercise after breast cancer treatment is safe and helpful for recovery and health. You may be able to join if you finished treatment within the last 6–24 months and have no major exercise-limiting heart or health problems.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 40–80 - NCT05827081RecruitingPhase 3
Ribociclib plus endocrine therapy for early breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding ribociclib to standard hormone (endocrine) therapy lowers the risk of breast cancer coming back in early-stage, hormone-receptor–positive cancer. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment controls cancer after surgery and (sometimes) prior hormone treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–100 - NCT05798338Recruiting
Study blood samples and tiny cell particles in breast cancer
This study looks at tiny particles released by cells (called extracellular vesicles) in people with breast cancer. It may help researchers better understand breast cancer and how it behaves, which could improve future testing or treatments.
Pavia, LombardyAges 18–90 - NCT05528133RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized radiation based on tumor genetics in triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests whether using tumor “genetics” (information from your biopsy) to guide radiation planning can improve treatment for triple-negative breast cancer. It may help by aiming radiation more precisely while still using standard approaches where needed.
Clearwater, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05398861RecruitingPhase 2
Testing utidelone plus bevacizumab for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This trial studies whether utidelone combined with bevacizumab can shrink tumors and slow progression in women with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer that has already been treated at least twice. It may help people who have limited options after earlier chemotherapy and/or hormone (endocrine) treatments.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–70 - NCT05317221Recruiting
Developing breast cancer tissue models for research
This trial builds lab “models” (called organoids) from breast cancer tissue to help researchers study different breast cancer types. You may be able to help by providing consent and meeting the study’s basic cancer and treatment history requirements.
MaastrichtAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT04680715RecruitingPhase 2
Tested radiation before and after breast surgery in older women
This Phase 2 trial looks at a specific radiation timing and technique around the time of breast-conserving surgery. It may help reduce the chance the cancer comes back in selected older patients with certain early-stage, hormone-positive, HER2-negative breast cancers.
