Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 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.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05283330RecruitingPhase 1
Tested 212Pb imaging drug for certain advanced GRPR tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe and tolerable an experimental radiation drug is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that show a target called GRPR. Doctors will also use special scans to confirm the tumor has the target so the treatment can be delivered to the right place.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07020117RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AKY-1189 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, AKY-1189, for people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed. It may help if other treatments have stopped working.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Randallstown, MarylandAges 19–110 - NCT05748834RecruitingPhase 2
Tucatinib plus Doxil for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests tucatinib (a HER2-targeted pill) plus Doxil (a chemotherapy medicine) to slow or shrink HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that has been treated before. It may help by targeting HER2 cancer cells more effectively than past treatments alone.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07683754RecruitingPhase 3
T-DXd with hormone therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer
This trial tests a targeted drug combination for HER2-positive, hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer that has spread. It aims to shrink tumors and control the disease for as long as possible, with a planned switch to maintenance therapy after initial response.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05645536Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Safety follow-up for hormone-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer
This trial studies the safety of continuing endocrine therapy with ovarian suppression (for women) after you finish the earlier OVELIA study. It may help doctors confirm that the treatment remains safe for longer-term use.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18–51 - NCT07102381RecruitingPhase 2
Zanidatamab plus chemo before surgery for HER2+ breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug called zanidatamab combined with chemotherapy to shrink HER2-positive breast cancer before surgery. It may help improve treatment outcomes for people with stage 2 or 3 breast cancer that has not spread.
Laurel, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03418961RecruitingPhase 3
Study of heart-risk management for metastatic HER2 breast cancer
This trial follows people with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who are at higher risk for heart damage while on HER2-targeted therapy. Some participants are randomly assigned to different monitoring/heart-protection approaches to see what best helps keep the heart safe.
Bel Air, MarylandAges 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.
Annapolis, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07100106RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of GDC-4198 alone or with giredestrant for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new treatment (GDC-4198) alone or with another drug (giredestrant) compared to a standard combination (abemaciclib and giredestrant) for people with advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has progressed after previous treatments.
Annapolis, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07357597RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing mouth sores during breast or lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether a steroid mouthwash can prevent mouth sores caused by the drug Datopotamab Deruxtecan (Dato-DXd). It is for people with certain types of advanced breast cancer or lung cancer who are about to start Dato-DXd for the first time.
Glenn Dale, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05894239RecruitingPhase 3
Tested targeted drug for HER2-positive breast cancer with PIK3CA changes
This Phase 3 study tests inavolisib plus Phesgo versus placebo plus Phesgo in people whose breast cancer has both HER2-positive and PIK3CA-mutated tumor markers. The goal is to see if adding inavolisib improves how well the treatment controls the cancer and how safe it is.
Hyattsville, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06393374RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug combination for residual TNBC after initial treatment
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (sacituzumab tirumotecan and pembrolizumab) compared to standard chemotherapy for people with triple-negative breast cancer that did not fully respond to initial treatment. It aims to see if this combination helps prevent cancer from coming back.
Silver Spring, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03723928Recruiting
Blood test–guided monitoring for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This study checks whether specific blood “tumor marker” levels can help monitor how hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer responds to first-line therapy. It uses regular blood tests (and sometimes scans) to see if this marker-based monitoring is useful and reliable.
