Recruiting studies in New Jersey
- 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.
Florham Park, New JerseyAges 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.

Testing BMS-986507 for advanced lung and breast cancers
This study tests a new drug called BMS-986507, given in different combinations, for people with advanced solid tumors (lung cancer or breast cancer that has spread). It looks at safety, how the drug works in the body, and if it helps shrink tumors.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06023576RecruitingPhase 2

Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06500481RecruitingPhase 3
Proton vs standard radiation for cancer spread to brain/spine lining
This trial compares a newer type of radiation (proton therapy) to standard radiation for people whose breast or lung cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It aims to see if proton therapy can better control the disease while causing fewer side effects.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07060807RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Patritumab Deruxtecan for Advanced HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer
This trial tests a new drug called patritumab deruxtecan (a targeted therapy) for people with a common type of advanced breast cancer (HR+/HER2-). It's for those whose cancer has grown despite treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor plus hormone therapy.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07220967RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotics to prevent infection after breast expander surgery
This trial tests whether placing antibiotic beads near the surgical site during breast reconstruction can help prevent infections. It is for women having a mastectomy followed by immediate breast reconstruction with a tissue expander.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05877599RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for advanced cancers with a specific gene change
This trial tests a new type of therapy (NT-175) for people with certain advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change. It might help if your tumor has the TP53 R175H mutation and you have the HLA-A*02:01 immune marker.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07540572RecruitingPhase 1
Testing IDE574 safety and effectiveness in advanced solid tumors
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called IDE574 to see if it is safe and effective in treating advanced cancers that have spread or stopped responding to standard treatments. The trial focuses mainly on hormone-receptor positive breast cancer, but also includes lung, prostate, and colorectal cancers.
East Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18–99 - NCT06841354RecruitingPhase 3
Sac-TMT alone or with pembrolizumab for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug, Sac-TMT, given alone or with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who have not yet received any treatment for advanced disease. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07308717RecruitingPhase 4
Gabapentin for mastectomy recovery
This trial tests if gabapentin improves recovery after mastectomy. It studies how giving the drug before surgery affects pain and healing.
Middletown, New JerseyAges 18–65 - NCT05910294Recruiting
Preventing and improving sexual health in early breast cancer
This study looks at ways to prevent and treat sexual discomfort in people with hormone-receptor positive breast cancer. It targets women who are not having current vaginal dryness or pain related to lower estrogen, and may help protect sexual comfort during cancer-related hormone treatment.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT03396341Recruiting
Surveys after genetic risk results for certain breast cancer genes
This study asks women to complete surveys after learning their genetic risk results for certain breast cancer–related gene changes. It helps researchers understand how people respond and what they think or feel after getting these results.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 25 years+ - NCT07046923RecruitingPhase 1
A study of LY4175408 for advanced cancer
This trial tests a new targeted drug (LY4175408) for people with certain advanced solid tumors (lung, endometrial, or triple negative breast cancer) who have already tried standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT02743858Recruiting
Watch swelling study after breast lymph node surgery
This study looks at how and when swelling (lymphedema) happens after breast cancer surgery on the armpit lymph nodes. You may be followed closely after your planned one-sided procedure to better understand who gets swelling and how it changes over time.

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.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18–100 - NCT05559164RecruitingPhase 2
Statins to protect the heart during HER2 breast cancer treatment

Jersey City, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - 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.

Dosing study for older adults with advanced breast cancer
This trial studies how well different doses of CDK4/6 inhibitors (palbociclib or ribociclib) work in people aged 65 or older with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer. It aims to find the best starting dose to balance effectiveness and side effects.
Plainsboro, New JerseyAges 65 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting

What taking part in a breast cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
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.
