Recruiting studies near Sacramento
- 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.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - 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).
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05633654RecruitingPhase 3
Test drug combo versus standard care for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a cancer antibody-drug combination plus pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) versus standard treatment. It’s for people with triple-negative breast cancer that still has invasive disease in the breast or lymph nodes after surgery and chemotherapy before surgery.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07020806RecruitingPhase 1
New imaging test for invasive lobular breast cancer that has spread
This trial tests a new imaging agent, [68Ga]Ga DOTA-5G, to see if it can better detect invasive lobular breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It involves a PET/CT scan and may help doctors understand the extent of your cancer.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–89 - NCT06458712RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced cancers with gene changes

Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06418204Recruiting

Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05208762RecruitingPhase 1
PD-L1 antibody drug study for advanced lung and head/neck cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a new experimental drug (PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V) in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment or can’t use it. It is designed to see how the drug works and how safe it is, with a focus on tumors that have PD-L1 seen on prior lab testing.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 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.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges Any age - 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.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–50 - NCT06876714RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter vs Longer HER2 Therapy for Breast Cancer with Complete Response
This trial compares 6 months versus 12 months of HER2-targeted therapy for people with HER2+ breast cancer who had a complete response after chemo and trastuzumab. The goal is to see if a shorter treatment is just as effective.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07059884Recruiting
Exercise program to help people with cancer stay active
This trial tests a distance-based exercise program designed to help people on chemotherapy maintain their physical function and prevent disability. It is for patients with certain cancers who are working full-time and can participate in moderate physical activity.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05646862RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two treatments for advanced breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation
This trial tests whether a new drug combo (inavolisib plus fulvestrant) works better than an existing one (alpelisib plus fulvestrant) for people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer that has a PIK3CA mutation. It aims to find a treatment that may help control the cancer longer.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07677839Recruiting
Study using ultrasound to look at normal lymph nodes before breast surgery
This study uses a special type of ultrasound (UHFUS) to take detailed images of your lymph nodes before and during breast cancer surgery. The goal is to better understand normal lymph node anatomy, which may help prevent lymphedema (swelling) after surgery.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02620852Recruiting
Wisdom Study: Women’s breast cancer screening decisions
This study looks at how to decide the best breast cancer screening (like mammograms) based on your personal risk. It may help by testing a smarter way to match screening to your risk level.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 30–74 - NCT07505797Recruiting
Ultrasound imaging study for suspicious breast lesions
This study is testing a new ultrasound device (ATUSA) to see how well it can image breast lesions that have been classified as suspicious (BI-RADS 4 or 5). If you have a recent finding that needs further evaluation, this research might help improve detection methods.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–94 - NCT06778863RecruitingPhase 1
A study of CLSP-1025 for adults with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CLSP-1025 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the p53 gene (R175H). The drug targets this change to help fight the cancer.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 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.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT06103669Recruiting
Local treatment for limited cancer spread
This trial tests whether using local treatments (like targeted radiation or ablation) on a few new spots of cancer can help people whose cancer is otherwise stable on their current treatment. It enrolls people with various solid tumors, such as breast, gynecologic, head & neck, sarcoma, or other types.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06103864RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Dato-DXd with or without durvalumab for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is testing whether a new drug combination (Dato-DXd with or without durvalumab) works better than standard chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab for people with a certain type of advanced triple-negative breast cancer that has a protein called PD-L1. The study aims to find a more effective treatment option for this specific group.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03606967RecruitingPhase 2
Individualized vaccine added to standard treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding a personalized cancer vaccine to durvalumab (an immunotherapy), tremelimumab (another immunotherapy), and chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. It may help your immune system recognize your specific tumor features.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 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.

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.
