Recruiting studies
- NCT07448246Recruiting
Rhomboid block for pain after breast implant surgery
This trial tests if a specific nerve block (rhomboid intercostal block) can reduce pain after breast implant surgery. If you are having bilateral breast implants and are in good general health, you may be eligible.
Aydin, EfelerAges 18–65 - 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 - NCT04874038RecruitingPhase 3
Lidocaine infusions to prevent long-lasting pain after breast surgery
This Phase 3 study tests whether receiving lidocaine through an IV during breast surgery can lower the chance of ongoing pain afterward. If it works, it may help some people avoid chronic, surgery-related pain in the chest wall, shoulder, or arm.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–100 - NCT06382272Recruiting
Bionic breast project to reduce chronic pain after mastectomy
This study tests a new device (a neuroprosthesis) placed during breast reconstruction to see if it can reduce long-term pain after a mastectomy. If you are having both breasts removed and plan to get tissue expander reconstruction, you may be able to join.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07310004Recruiting
VR vs Music for Breast Biopsy Anxiety
This trial compares using a virtual reality headset versus listening to relaxing music to help lower your anxiety and pain during a breast biopsy. Both methods are non-drug ways to help you feel more comfortable during the procedure.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07579182RecruitingPhase 1
How Exercise and Hormones Affect Pain in Women
This study looks at how exercise affects pain and hormone levels in women. Researchers will ask you about your activity level, do some physical tests, and measure how your body responds to exercise over several visits.
Houston, TexasAges 18–60 - NCT06507345Recruiting
Non-opioid pain relief after breast surgery
This trial tests whether non-opioid pain medicines can effectively control pain after mastectomy or lumpectomy, allowing you to go home the same day without needing strong opioids.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07657949Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after breast reduction surgery
This trial tests a specific nerve block to see if it can reduce pain after breast reduction surgery, possibly helping with recovery and lowering the need for strong painkillers.
Sivas, SivasAges 18–65 - NCT07739277Recruiting
Comparing two ways to give a chest wall pain block for breast surgery
This study compares two ways of giving a numbing injection (a nerve block) to the side of the chest wall for pain relief after breast surgery. The goal is to see which method works better for reducing pain and the need for pain medicine.
Ankara, Yenimahalle\AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT07206394Recruiting
Scar massage for pain after breast cancer surgery
This trial tests if a gentle scar massage technique called ScarWork can help reduce pain that continues after breast cancer surgery and radiation. If you are at least 6 months past radiation and still have pain, this study may be a good fit for you.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05494502Recruiting
Nerve block to reduce long-term pain after breast surgery
This trial tests whether a specific pain-numbing nerve block given during mastectomy can reduce chronic (long-lasting) pain after breast cancer surgery. It may help some people use less pain medicine later by lowering nerve-related pain after surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06404983Recruiting
Opioid-free anesthesia for breast cancer surgery
This study tests whether breast cancer surgery can be done safely without using opioid pain medicines during anesthesia. The goal is to see if avoiding opioids leads to fewer side effects and a smoother recovery.
Ioannina, EpirusAges 18–99 - NCT05876390Enrolling by invitation
Regional anesthesia to reduce long-term breast surgery pain
This trial studies whether a pain-control technique called regional anesthesia during certain breast surgeries can lower chronic (long-lasting) pain after surgery. It may help improve comfort and quality of life for people at risk of ongoing pain after their breast operation.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07128030Recruiting
Moderate exercise for pain in breast cancer survivors
This study tests whether moderate exercise (like brisk walking) can help reduce pain and sensitivity in breast cancer survivors. It's designed for women who have finished their main treatments and still have discomfort in their arm or shoulder on the side where they had surgery.
MadridAges Any age - NCT05146778Recruiting
Opioid-free anesthesia to reduce long-term post-mastectomy pain
This study tests whether a pain-control approach without opioids (strong pain medicines) can lower persistent pain after mastectomy. It may help people avoid long-term pain and opioid side effects.
SeoulAges 19–80 - NCT06884852Recruiting
Preventing pain after mastectomy: nerve block vs. epidural
This study compares two methods to prevent long-term pain after breast cancer surgery: a nerve block using ultrasound guidance or an epidural. The goal is to see which helps women feel less pain months after their mastectomy.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07463430Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Suzetrigine for pain after non-mastectomy breast surgery
This trial tests a new pain medication, suzetrigine, for people having breast surgery (not mastectomy) who are expected to have moderate pain. It checks if this drug works well compared to standard options.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07674836Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for chronic pain after breast surgery
This study tests two types of nerve blocks (SPSIP and ESP blocks) to see which one works better for long-term pain after a single-sided breast surgery like mastectomy. It aims to find a safer, more effective way to manage chronic pain after surgery.
İzmit, KocaeliAges 18–65 - NCT06907810Recruiting
Study of fat molecules in long-term breast surgery pain
This trial looks at how certain natural fat molecules in your body might relate to long-term pain after breast cancer surgery. It could help doctors better understand and treat chronic pain in the future.
Brussels, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT07500012Recruiting
Ear nerve stimulation for breast cancer pain
This study tests whether gentle electrical stimulation of a nerve in your ear (called taVNS) can help reduce pain and improve symptoms for breast cancer survivors. You would need to have finished your main treatments, have ongoing pain, and be willing to provide stool samples and undergo brain scans.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 18–79 - NCT05072314RecruitingPhase 3
Lidocaine drip after breast surgery to improve long-term pain
This Phase 3 study tests whether a long-running lidocaine (a numbing medicine) drip given around the time of breast surgery can improve long-term post-surgery pain and recovery. It may help people who have pain after mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery.
Kingswood, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07446868Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for pain after mastectomy
This trial compares two nerve-block techniques (SPSIP and ESPB) to see which one provides better pain relief after breast cancer surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and improve recovery after a modified radical mastectomy.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 18–65 - NCT06728579RecruitingPhase 2
Group therapy for joint pain in breast cancer survivors
This study tests two supportive group programs—one using mindfulness skills, the other providing supportive talk therapy—to help breast cancer survivors manage joint pain caused by hormone-blocking pills. If you have ongoing joint pain and are taking an aromatase inhibitor, you may be able to join a free, video-based group.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07541040Recruiting
Nerve Blocks for Breast Surgery Pain Relief
This trial tests two different nerve-block techniques to reduce pain after breast surgery. The study compares a serratus block with an ESP block—both are injections of numbing medication near nerves—to see which works better for managing pain without heavy opioid use.
