Recruiting studies
- NCT06595966Recruiting
Blood test study for early detection of breast cancer return
This study looks for tiny bits of cancer DNA in your blood after breast cancer surgery. A blood test called NGS may help doctors find early signs of cancer coming back, and you would give samples and have checkups for 3 years.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06608446Recruiting
Rehab from home after breast cancer surgery
This study tests a remote physical therapy program to help manage complications after breast cancer surgery. It may help you recover movement and reduce discomfort without needing to travel to a clinic.
Roma, RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06725082RecruitingPhase 1
Collagen treatment for breast tumor surgery recovery
This trial tests if a lab-made human collagen, applied during breast tumor surgery, can improve healing and long-term outcomes. It may be an option for women who are having a needle biopsy and surgery, and have not had prior cancer treatment.
Beijing, ChinaAges 18–80 - NCT06938581Recruiting
ERAS Recovery Steps for Breast-Conserving Surgery
This study tests a set of recovery steps called ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) for people having breast-conserving surgery. The goal is to help you heal faster, feel more comfortable, and get back to your normal life sooner.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT07209020Recruiting
Collagen wound dressing for healing after breast tumor surgery
This trial tests a collagen wound dressing (like a special bandage) to help healing after breast tumor surgery. It may be a good option if you have a small breast tumor that has not spread and are scheduled for surgery.
New Taipei City, TaiwanAges 18–70 - NCT07335354Recruiting
Decision tool for breast reconstruction after mastectomy
This study is testing a decision tool to help people who are thinking about breast reconstruction surgery after a mastectomy. The tool is designed to help you and your doctor make a more informed choice.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07542106Recruiting
Visual Biofeedback vs. Standard Therapy After Breast Cancer Surgery
This study compares a new visual biofeedback program (using real-time visual feedback to guide exercises) with standard physical therapy to help restore shoulder movement, strength, and function in women recovering from breast cancer surgery. The goal is to see which approach helps patients regain mobility and reduce pain more effectively.
Badajoz, BadajozAges 18 years+ - NCT06881550Enrolling by invitation
Herbal medicine study for women after breast cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a Chinese herbal medicine (Shenbailing granules) can help improve energy and blood health in women recovering from breast cancer surgery.
Shenyang, Chian/LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT05772390RecruitingPhase 2
Second radiation for a small breast cancer return
This Phase 2 study tests whether giving targeted radiation again to the same breast can control a small, local breast cancer that came back after prior whole-breast radiation. It may help some patients avoid or delay further treatment for the breast while carefully checking safety.
Meldola, Forlì CesenaAges 18 years+ - NCT03536897Recruiting
Radiation registry after lumpectomy for certain early breast cancers
This study collects information about people with early-stage, hormone-receptor–positive breast cancer who have a lumpectomy and radiation. It may help doctors understand outcomes after this standard treatment and improve care for future patients.
Columbus, OhioAges 65 years+ - NCT06640881RecruitingPhase 2
Repeat breast-conserving surgery with partial reirradiation
This trial tests a new approach for women whose breast cancer has returned in the same breast after earlier surgery and radiation. Instead of removing the whole breast, doctors will remove only the tumor again and give a small, focused dose of radiation before surgery, aiming to preserve the breast.
AmsterdamAges 50 years+ - NCT06512558Recruiting
Using augmented reality for breast cancer surgery planning
This trial tests whether augmented reality can help doctors locate tumors that cannot be felt during breast cancer surgery. If you are having surgery for a non-palpable breast lesion and need an MRI, you may be able to join.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18–100 - NCT04891510Recruiting
Compare fat grafting products in breast surgery
This trial compares three methods for moving your own fat into the breast during breast surgery. It may help improve how well fat grafting works and how surgeons choose the best method for you.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06511167Recruiting
Study of TIGR® Matrix in breast reconstruction after mastectomy
This study looks at how a special mesh called TIGR® Matrix affects quality of life, safety, and effectiveness after breast reconstruction surgery. It is for women who need or choose to have their breasts removed and reconstructed.
Weinheim, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT07602374Recruiting
Written vs. Video Education for Breast Reconstruction Surgery
This study compares two ways of learning about breast reconstruction options after mastectomy—reading written materials versus watching videos. Researchers want to see which method helps patients make better-informed decisions and feel more confident about their choice.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06362616Recruiting
Pre-surgery partial breast radiation for recurrent breast cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation to just part of the breast before surgery for women who have had breast cancer return in the same breast. It's for those who have already had radiation to that breast and have a specific type of cancer (ER+, HER2-).
AmsterdamAges 51 years+ - 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+ - NCT05797454Recruiting
Two ways to mark hidden breast tumors before surgery
This trial compares two techniques for pinpointing non-touchable breast cancer during breast-conserving surgery. The study aims to see which method is more accurate and whether it leads to better surgical outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06129747RecruitingPhase 2
Repeat Lumpectomy and Daily Partial Breast Radiation for Cancer Return
This trial studies a second breast-conserving surgery followed by daily radiation to just the tumor area for people whose breast cancer has returned in the same breast. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective, potentially avoiding a mastectomy.
Cleveland, OhioAges 19 years+ - NCT07071402Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided vacuum removal plus surgery for early small breast cancer
This trial tests a less invasive approach for early breast cancer. First, doctors use ultrasound to guide a vacuum device to remove the small tumor (≤2 cm). Then surgery is done. The goal is to see if this combined method works well and is safe for women with early-stage breast cancer.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–70 - NCT06888388Recruiting
Safety of nipple-sparing mastectomy for women with high-risk genes
This study looks at the long-term safety of a type of breast surgery (nipple-sparing mastectomy) in women who carry certain inherited gene changes (BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, TP53, CDH1, or PTEN) that increase their risk of breast cancer. The goal is to understand how safe this surgery is over time for these women.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–90 - NCT07613151Recruiting
Lobular breast cancer with low hormone receptors
This study looks at a rare type of breast cancer called invasive lobular carcinoma that has low or no hormone receptors. The goal is to learn more about how this cancer behaves, which may help improve future treatments.
PadovaAges 18 years+ - NCT05130801RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MRI and pHLIP dye during breast surgery to map tumors
This trial tests whether a special MRI and an injected light-activated dye (pHLIP® ICG) can help doctors see and target breast cancer during surgery. You may be offered this approach around the time of breast-conserving surgery, to improve how well the tumor area is identified.
