A CoruñaAges 18–100 - NCT06078384RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and chemo for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) to standard chemotherapy after surgery can improve outcomes for people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. The treatment you receive depends on the level of immune cells (TILs) found in your tumor.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06097156Recruiting
Automated blood test for breast cancer monitoring
This trial tests an automated device that prepares blood samples to detect cancer-related changes. It aims to improve how doctors monitor breast cancer that has spread, without needing a tissue biopsy every time.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06104371Recruiting
Magnetic markers to find lymph nodes before chemo for breast cancer
This trial tests a new method using magnetic markers (Magtrace and Magseed) to find lymph nodes before chemotherapy. It may help doctors better target the lymph nodes that need to be removed during breast cancer surgery.
GothenburgAges 18–85 - NCT06107686RecruitingPhase 2
YL202 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called YL202 for people with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread or cannot be removed). It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth. You may be able to join if you have certain types of cancer, have not had a previous HER3 treatment, and can provide a tumor sample.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06123286RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Tart cherry and omega-3s for joint pain from hormone therapy
This study tests whether taking tart cherry and omega-3 supplements can help reduce joint pain and stiffness caused by aromatase inhibitors (a common breast cancer treatment). If you have bothersome joint pain while on this hormone therapy, you may be able to join.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06134375RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TM plus capecitabine for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a drug called tetrathiomolybdate (TM) combined with capecitabine for people with triple-negative breast cancer who still have cancer cells after standard chemotherapy and surgery. The goal is to see if this combination can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–80 - NCT06139107RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation and abemaciclib plus letrozole before breast cancer surgery
This trial combines a short course of radiation before surgery with two oral medications (abemaciclib and letrozole) to treat early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Belleville, New JerseyAges 60 years+ - NCT06256354Recruiting
Managing body temperature during cancer surgery to prevent confusion
This trial tests whether carefully managing a patient's body temperature during cancer surgery can reduce the risk of postoperative delirium and improve long-term survival. It is for older adults undergoing major cancer surgery.
Chizhou, AnhuiAges 65 years+ - NCT06258993Recruiting
Exercise program for breast cancer survivors
This study tests a new approach to help breast cancer survivors become more physically active. You will be asked to participate in a program that uses a smartphone app and wear a monitor to track activity.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT06321653Recruiting
Lymphedema after radiation for early breast cancer with 1-2 positive nodes
This trial aims to see if a shorter course of radiation after breast-conserving surgery affects arm swelling (lymphedema) in people with early breast cancer that has spread to 1 or 2 nearby lymph nodes. The goal is to learn if this approach is safe and effective.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06330870Recruiting
How breast cancer spreads to the brain
This study looks at how breast cancer spreads to the brain in people who had surgery to remove brain tumors. It helps doctors understand why some women get brain metastases.
SeoulAges Any age - NCT06336070Recruiting
Power training for metabolic health in postmenopausal cancer survivors
This trial compares two types of exercise—muscle power training and metabolic power training—to see which better improves your body's ability to use energy and control heart function. You may qualify if you are a postmenopausal woman who has had breast cancer and is not currently active.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 35–75 - NCT06345534Recruiting
Comparing two radiotherapy schedules for breast cancer
This trial compares two ways of giving radiation therapy after breast cancer surgery: FAST-FORWARD versus HAI5. It aims to find which schedule works best for people who need radiation to prevent the cancer from coming back.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT06351865Recruiting
Using patient feedback after digital consent
This study tests a new way of getting your consent for breast cancer surgery using digital tools. It asks for your feedback on how the consent process went.

Oral vitamin A drug plus immunotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of an oral vitamin A-based drug (all-trans retinoic acid) and an immunotherapy (toripalimab) for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer that hasn't responded to at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or control the cancer.
Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, P.R. ChinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06415032Recruiting

LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06426810Recruiting
New vs. standard surgical tool for bleeding control after lymph node biopsy
This trial compares two tools used during surgery to stop bleeding after a sentinel lymph node biopsy for breast cancer. It aims to see if a newer bipolar system is better than the standard electrocautery device.

Testing dapagliflozin to protect the heart during breast cancer chemo
This trial tests whether a daily pill called dapagliflozin can help protect the heart from damage caused by doxorubicin chemotherapy in people being treated for early-stage breast cancer. If you are starting doxorubicin and have a healthy heart, this might lower your risk of heart problems later.
