Recruiting studies
- NCT05216900Recruiting
Breast reconstruction with radiation given before surgery
This study looks at how breast reconstruction works when radiation is planned around the time of surgery, including in some people before surgery depending on lymph node results. It may help improve safety and outcomes for people needing mastectomy and chest/radiation therapy.
Bilthoven, UtrechtAges 18–75 - NCT05692674RecruitingPhase 2
Proton radiation after breast surgery with implant reconstruction
This trial studies a type of radiation made with proton beams given after mastectomy and implant reconstruction to lower breast cancer coming back. It’s for people who need additional (adjuvant) radiation and have not had prior radiation to the chest or breast.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06461650Recruiting
Nicotine Cessation Before Breast Reconstruction
This study tests whether a program to help women with breast cancer quit using nicotine before reconstructive surgery is feasible and helpful. If you use nicotine and are scheduled for reconstruction, you may be able to join.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT05491395Recruiting
Radiation after mastectomy with breast implant reconstruction
This trial studies a radiation schedule given after breast cancer surgery when your breast was rebuilt right away with a prosthesis (implant or similar). It aims to see whether this “hypofractionated” (fewer, larger treatment sessions) radiation approach is appropriate for patients who need additional (adjuvant) radiation to reduce recurrence risk.
Barretos, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07263347Recruiting
DIEP flap breast reconstruction: markers and outcomes
This study looks at how certain body markers change during and after DIEP flap breast reconstruction (rebuilding the breast with your own belly tissue) following mastectomy for breast cancer. It aims to improve outcomes and care for women undergoing this surgery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - 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+ - NCT05449691Recruiting
Compare natural tissue samples with synthetic mesh in breast reconstruction
This study looks at how “biological” materials compare with synthetic mesh during immediate, one-stage breast reconstruction after mastectomy. It may help doctors choose the best support material to improve reconstruction outcomes for women undergoing this surgery.
DerbyAges 18 years+ - NCT06981208Recruiting
ChatGPT and surgeon teamwork for breast reconstruction talks
This trial tests whether using a ChatGPT tool alongside your surgeon can make your breast reconstruction consultation clearer and more satisfying. It may help you feel more informed and engaged in decisions about your care.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07136753Recruiting
Study of radiotherapy effects on breast reconstruction
This study is looking at how radiotherapy affects women who have immediate breast reconstruction after mastectomy. The goal is to understand the changes and improve future care. Participants will have 3D imaging and answer questionnaires.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05032768Recruiting
Study links between skin bacteria and radiation skin reactions
This study looks at how changes in the skin’s normal bacteria (microbiome) relate to getting redness, irritation, or rash after breast radiation. It may help doctors predict who is more likely to have skin side effects after reconstruction and radiation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07672392Recruiting
Exercise after breast reconstruction surgery
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program after DIEP flap breast reconstruction helps improve physical fitness compared to standard care. It may help women recover strength and well-being after surgery.
Beaumont, DublinAges 18 years+ - NCT07548762Recruiting
Skin-Sparing vs. Standard Mastectomy for Breast Cancer
This study compares two surgical approaches to remove breast cancer: one that preserves more of the skin (skin-sparing) versus a standard approach. The goal is to see which method results in fewer wound-healing problems after surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06024187Recruiting
Cold vs. heat cutting in nipple-sparing mastectomy
This study compares two ways of cutting tissue during nipple-sparing mastectomy (breast removal with nipple preservation) followed by immediate implant reconstruction. One method uses a cold instrument, the other uses heat (electrocautery). The goal is to see which leads to better nipple survival and healing.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07460297Enrolling by invitation
Antibiotic and iodine for infection prevention in breast reconstruction
This trial tests if a combination of a pseudomonas bacteria injection and an iodine solution can help prevent infections in women having immediate breast reconstruction with implants after mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18 years+ - NCT07607366Recruiting
Negative Pressure Bandaging After Breast Removal Surgery
This trial tests a special bandage that uses gentle suction to help wounds heal better after breast cancer surgery. Researchers want to see if this type of bandaging reduces complications like fluid buildup and improves healing.
FalunAges 18 years+ - NCT05512286Recruiting
Radiation experience after breast surgery with belly flap
This trial looks at how people feel (patient-reported outcomes) and how safe treatment is when radiotherapy is given after a mastectomy with a DIEP belly skin-flap reconstruction. It may help doctors understand which experiences to expect and how to improve care.
Nanning, GuangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06649890Recruiting
Testing a new irrigation solution in breast reconstruction after mastectomy
This study tests a new surgical irrigation solution (Xperience) used during breast reconstruction after double mastectomy. It aims to see if it can reduce complications and improve outcomes for people receiving implants or tissue expanders.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07738770Recruiting
Comparing two numbing techniques for pain relief after mastectomy
This trial tests two different numbing injections to see which one works better for pain after breast cancer surgery. If you are having a mastectomy, you may be able to join and help find a better way to manage pain.
Jakarta, DKI JakartaAges 18–60 - NCT07507890Recruiting
Nipple-sparing mastectomy through one armpit incision
This trial tests a less invasive surgery for early-stage breast cancer that removes breast tissue through a single small cut in the armpit while keeping the nipple. It may be an option for women with small to medium breasts who are candidates for immediate breast reconstruction.
Candiolo, TurinAges 18 years+ - NCT06574022RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two pain blocks for mastectomy recovery
This trial compares two types of pain blocks (PECS-II and pectoral blocks) to see which works better after mastectomy. The goal is to improve pain control and recovery for patients with breast cancer or high risk.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06783179Recruiting
