New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06673329RecruitingPhase 1
Brodalumab for immune-related side effects from cancer treatment
This trial tests if brodalumab, an antibody that blocks a specific immune pathway (IL-17), can help control side effects caused by immunotherapy cancer treatment. It is for people with advanced solid organ cancers who have immune-related side effects that are suspected to involve IL-17.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06695845RecruitingPhase 2
Study of zanidatamab for HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a drug called zanidatamab in people with advanced solid tumors that have high levels of HER2 protein (called HER2-positive). It aims to see if zanidatamab can shrink or slow the growth of these tumors.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06435429RecruitingPhase 3
Zanidatamab vs trastuzumab for HER2+ breast cancer
This study compares a new drug called zanidatamab against trastuzumab (Herceptin), both given with a chemotherapy of your doctor's choice. It is for people with HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread and who have already tried T-DXd treatment.

Talazoparib for metastatic breast cancer with BRCA body DNA changes
This Phase 2 trial tests talazoparib, a targeted cancer medicine, in people with metastatic breast cancer that has a harmful BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation found in tumor DNA circulating in the blood.

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.
