This early study tests whether a device that uses focused ultrasound (guided by MRI) can be safely used during surgery for women with invasive breast cancer. It mainly looks at feasibility—whether the treatment can be delivered as planned and is safe.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT05232916RecruitingPhase 3
Vaccine for HER2-positive breast cancer after standard treatment
This trial tests a vaccine (GLSI-100) that may help prevent the return of HER2-positive breast cancer. It is given to patients who still had cancer cells after initial treatment with trastuzumab, or who had stage III disease and achieved a complete response.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18–100 - NCT04994067Recruiting
Registering radiation given during breast-conserving surgery
This study records details about radiation delivered while your surgery is happening for certain early breast cancers or pre-cancers. It may help doctors better understand who benefits most from this “intra-operative” radiation approach.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04614194RecruitingPhase 2
Blood and tumor markers to test response to abemaciclib
This trial studies how the immune system and other body signals in blood and tumor tissue relate to how well abemaciclib works before breast cancer surgery. The goal is to learn who benefits most from this medicine and why.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03562273Recruiting
GammaPod planning study for breast cancer quality of life
This study looks at how GammaPod radiation planning after a lumpectomy affects quality of life and comfort. Your doctors will use imaging and a structured plan to help predict outcomes and refine care.
Bel Air, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04003038Recruiting
Negative pressure wound dressings after breast reconstruction in obesity
This trial tests whether a special “suction” dressing (negative pressure wound therapy) helps wounds heal better after breast reconstruction using tissue from the belly, especially in people with higher body weight. You may be more likely to benefit if you’re at higher risk for wound problems after abdominal flap surgery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05861505RecruitingPhase 3
Treatment for new liver spread from colon cancer recurrence
This Phase 3 trial studies a treatment approach for people whose colorectal cancer has come back in the liver within 12 months and can be treated with local procedures. It aims to see whether the study treatment can improve outcomes compared with standard care for people with a limited number of liver tumors.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06180356RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib after surgery for ovarian cancer with limited spread
This trial is testing a second course of niraparib (a PARP inhibitor) after surgery for ovarian cancer that has come back in just a few spots. It aims to see if restarting niraparib can help keep the cancer from coming back again.
A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT06985602RecruitingPhase 2
Adebrelimab with Chemo and Radiation for Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a drug called adebrelimab along with chemotherapy and radiation before surgery for stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread locally or has limited spread. It aims to see if this combination can help make the tumor removable and improve outcomes.
Nanjing, ProvinceAges 18–80 - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07762924RecruitingPhase 2
Skipping radiation for younger women with low-risk DCIS
This study is looking at whether it is safe for younger women who have had surgery for a very early-stage, low-risk breast condition called DCIS to skip radiation therapy. The goal is to see if they can avoid the side effects of radiation without the cancer coming back.
ShanghaiAges Up to 40 years - NCT07762885RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing skipping radiation after surgery for early-stage DCIS
This trial compares skipping radiation therapy after breast-conserving surgery for low- or intermediate-risk ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) – a very early, non-invasive breast cancer. It aims to see if omitting radiation is as effective as standard treatment while reducing side effects.
ShanghaiAges 40 years+ - NCT06630962Recruiting
Financial help for newly diagnosed cancer patients
This study looks at whether getting help with financial issues (like insurance and costs) can reduce the money worries and problems that come with cancer treatment. It is for people newly diagnosed with breast, colorectal, or prostate cancer who haven't started treatment yet.
Ile-IfeAges 18 years+ - NCT07460297Enrolling by invitation
Antibiotic and iodine for infection prevention in breast reconstruction
This trial tests if a combination of a pseudomonas bacteria injection and an iodine solution can help prevent infections in women having immediate breast reconstruction with implants after mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18 years+ - NCT06046365Recruiting
Early detection of arm swelling after breast cancer surgery
This trial tests a new way to measure arm swelling (lymphedema) early in women who have had or will have breast cancer surgery. It aims to catch swelling sooner so treatment can start faster.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20–80 - NCT06855524RecruitingPhase 2
Seaweed supplement for less fatigue during chemotherapy
This study tests whether fucoidan, a supplement from brown seaweed, can help reduce fatigue caused by chemotherapy. Doctors at Mayo Clinic want to see if taking fucoidan during chemo helps you feel less tired.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07178808RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery and heated chemotherapy for stomach cancer
This trial tests if surgery to remove visible cancer in the belly combined with heated chemotherapy placed directly into the abdomen can help people with stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly. It is for patients who are well enough to undergo major surgery and meet specific health requirements.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03492671RecruitingPhase 2
Two chemotherapy drugs plus radiation before pancreatic surgery
This trial tests whether giving two already-approved chemotherapy drugs and radiation before surgery works better for localized pancreatic cancer. It’s meant for people whose cancer looks removable by surgery and who haven’t had prior pancreatic cancer treatment.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06082349Recruiting
LVA surgery vs sham for cancer-related lymphedema
This study tests a surgery called lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) against a sham (placebo) surgery to see if it helps reduce swelling in people with lymphedema caused by cancer treatment. It is for patients with early-stage lymphedema in one arm or leg that hasn't improved with standard care.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT04628767RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Durvalumab plus chemo before surgery for upper tract cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) to chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-grade upper tract urothelial cancer. It compares different treatment approaches based on whether a patient can receive cisplatin chemotherapy.
