Recruiting studies near Memphis
- NCT07578116RecruitingPhase 3
Adding surgery and radiation for her2-positive breast cancer with a few spread spots
This trial tests whether adding surgery and radiation to the usual HER2-targeted treatment helps people with breast cancer that has spread to a few spots. You must have HER2-positive cancer that is newly spread, and you must be able to receive radiation to all tumor sites.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06058377RecruitingPhase 3
Adding immunotherapy to chemo for stage II-III breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug durvalumab to standard chemotherapy works better than chemo alone for people with hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer that is stage II or III and has a high-risk genetic score (MammaPrint High Risk 2).
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06324357RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zongertinib for HER2-positive cancers that have spread
This trial tests a new pill called zongertinib, alone or with other drugs, for people with HER2-positive cancers (like breast, stomach, or colorectal cancer) that have spread and are no longer responding to standard treatments. The goal is to find the best dose and see if it can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 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.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06876714RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter vs Longer HER2 Therapy for Breast Cancer with Complete Response

Combination treatment for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests two targeted drugs together for people with advanced breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive and has low levels of a protein called HER2. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05812807RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab versus monitoring after triple-negative breast cancer response
This trial checks whether giving pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) after surgery helps people with triple-negative breast cancer reduce the chance of the cancer coming back, compared with close monitoring only. It’s for patients who had no remaining invasive cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT03050268Recruiting
Study of childhood cancer risk in families
This study looks at inherited (family) risk for childhood cancers, including families with early cancers or known cancer risk conditions. It may help researchers understand why some children get cancer and improve future risk detection and care.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - 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.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 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.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07391774RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy with or without chemo for early breast cancer
This trial tests whether skipping chemotherapy and using only hormone therapy with a drug called ribociclib works as well as chemotherapy followed by hormone therapy with ribociclib for certain early breast cancers that have a low risk of coming back.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05929768RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy without anthracyclines for early TNBC
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a shorter course of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy can work as well as standard treatment for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. It avoids anthracycline drugs and may help reduce exposure to those medicines if the shorter plan is effective and safe.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06377852RecruitingPhase 3
CDK4/6 inhibitor dosing study for older adults with metastatic breast cancer
This study tests two targeted therapy drugs, palbociclib and ribociclib, combined with hormone therapy for people aged 60 or older with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. The goal is to see how well this treatment works and to gather information that may help improve dosing for older adults.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 60 years+ - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 40 years+ - NCT06492616RecruitingPhase 3
Elacestrant versus standard hormone therapy for early breast cancer
This trial compares a new medicine, elacestrant, to the usual hormone therapy for people with early-stage breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative, and who have a high chance of it coming back. The goal is to see if elacestrant works better at preventing the cancer from returning.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06418204Recruiting
Cannabis use among cancer patients in community clinics
This study looks at how cancer patients use cannabis (marijuana) and cannabis products to manage symptoms during chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The goal is to learn about the benefits and risks so doctors can better guide patients.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05564377RecruitingPhase 2
Find targeted cancer treatments using genetic testing
This study matches people with advanced solid tumors to targeted treatment plans based on genetic testing. It also requires tumor sample testing to help doctors choose the most promising therapy for your specific tumor changes.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT05879926RecruitingPhase 3
Testing chemo after hormone therapy in premenopausal early breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial checks whether adding chemotherapy after standard hormone-blocking treatment works better for some premenopausal women with early-stage, ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. It targets patients with limited lymph node spread and a lower-to-intermediate tumor “recurrence” risk score.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18–60 - NCT06748222RecruitingPhase 3
Online mindfulness program for breast cancer survivors
This trial tests a 6-week online mindfulness program to help breast cancer survivors manage mild to moderate depression. You may qualify if you finished active treatment within the last 5 years and can use a digital device.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18–50 - NCT07085767RecruitingPhase 3
Palazestrant and ribociclib for first-line advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug (palazestrant) combined with ribociclib for people with a common type of advanced breast cancer that is estrogen receptor-positive and HER2-negative. You may qualify if you haven't had treatment for advanced disease and your cancer has either just been found or came back long after completing hormone therapy.
Bartlett, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07173751RecruitingPhase 3
Pumitamig for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This study tests a new drug called pumitamig for people with a type of breast cancer that is triple-negative or has very low hormone receptors and has come back or spread. It aims to see if pumitamig works better than standard treatment and how safe it is for people who cannot get PD(L)-1 immunotherapy with chemo.
Germantown, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06638307RecruitingPhase 1
Study of new drug MEN2312 for advanced breast cancer with specific genetic changes
This trial tests a new drug, MEN2312, for people with advanced breast cancer that has specific genetic changes in PIK3CA, AKT1, or PTEN. It's for those who have already tried certain hormone therapies and a CDK4/6 inhibitor combination, and the cancer has continued to grow.
Germantown, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06926920RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new dose schedule of sacituzumab govitecan for advanced TNBC
This trial tests a different dose and schedule of the drug sacituzumab govitecan for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer. It aims to see if this new approach is safer and more effective.

Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
