Study of AVZO-023 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, AVZO-023, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard therapy. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06827613RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of invikafusp alfa plus sacituzumab govitecan for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with advanced breast cancer (triple-negative or hormone receptor-positive). The goal is to see if the combination helps shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Columbus, OhioAges 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.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03671044RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a nano-form of docetaxel for triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 3 study tests whether a special form of docetaxel (a chemotherapy drug) works better and is safe for people with triple-negative breast cancer that has spread or grown locally. You may be eligible if your cancer is triple-negative and you have measurable disease that can be tracked on scans, along with adequate organ and heart function.
Canton, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT04852887RecruitingPhase 3
Testing shorter breast radiation after low-risk hormone breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial studies whether “less intense” radiation can work as well as standard radiation for certain early-stage hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancers that have a low Oncotype DX score. It may help reduce treatment burden while keeping cancer control strong.

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.
