Continuing current treatment after local treatment for limited cancer growth
This trial tests whether continuing your current therapy after getting local treatment (like surgery or radiation) for a small area of cancer growth is safe and effective. It may help you keep the same treatment longer before switching to a new one.
AlkmaarAges 18 years+ - NCT04749446Recruiting
Study of outcomes in breast sarcoma patients
This study looks at the medical details and outcomes of people with breast sarcoma. It may help doctors better understand what treatments and factors are linked to different results over time.
Bologna, BOAges 19 years+ - NCT04329065RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine with targeted breast cancer drugs before surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding a cancer vaccine (with GM-CSF) to standard HER2-targeted chemotherapy before surgery improves treatment outcomes for HER2-positive breast cancer. If you join, you’ll receive planned medicine before surgery to treat the tumor, then continue with the study schedule.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT05485766RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with cancer medicines for BRCA-mutated triple negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies a treatment plan given before surgery (neoadjuvant) and after surgery (adjuvant) for people with BRCA1/2-mutated triple negative breast cancer that has not spread. It aims to improve how well the cancer responds and how long people stay cancer-free.
Gifu, GifuAges 18 years+ - NCT07327021RecruitingPhase 2
MRI-Guided treatment reduction for stage 2-3 triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests if using MRI scans can safely reduce the amount of chemotherapy and immunotherapy needed before surgery for triple-negative breast cancer. All patients will receive the standard KEYNOTE-522 regimen, but the treatment may be tailored based on MRI results.
Tel AvivAges 18 years+ - NCT04665882Recruiting
Prediction tool for arm swelling after breast cancer surgery
This trial tests a prediction tool (a “nomogram”) to estimate who is at risk of developing breast cancer–related lymphedema, or long-term arm swelling, after surgery. If you fit the surgery and lymph node criteria, your information may help personalize follow-up and prevention.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT05363189Recruiting
Improving recovery after breast reconstruction with belly-tissue flap
This study looks at ways to help your recovery after breast reconstruction using tissue moved from your lower belly (a DIEP flap). You may be asked to complete a questionnaire during the recovery period.
GothenburgAges 18–100 - NCT05633654RecruitingPhase 3
Test drug combo versus standard care for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a cancer antibody-drug combination plus pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) versus standard treatment. It’s for people with triple-negative breast cancer that still has invasive disease in the breast or lymph nodes after surgery and chemotherapy before surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06748677Recruiting
Nipple-sparing mastectomy with robotic help and implant reconstruction
This trial tests a newer, less invasive way to remove breast tissue while keeping the nipple and skin, using robotic or endoscopic tools. It then rebuilds the breast with an implant wrapped in a non-biological mesh. The goal is to see how well patients recover and how they feel about the results.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06914440RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation and immunotherapy before surgery for HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This trial is testing a new treatment approach for patients with a certain type of breast cancer (HR+/HER2-). It combines radiation therapy with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug before the patient's main surgery, to see if it can shrink or eliminate the tumor more effectively.
Xi'an, Shannxi ProvinceAges 18–75 - NCT06704945RecruitingPhase 3
Skipping armpit surgery after good chemo response
This trial tests whether it's safe to skip armpit surgery in people whose breast cancer has responded well to chemotherapy and whose lymph nodes appear cancer-free on ultrasound. It aims to reduce side effects like arm swelling while still controlling the cancer.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT04637711Recruiting
Surgery for stubborn granulomatous breast inflammation
This study looks at surgical treatment for granulomatous lobular mastitis that has not been improving with non-surgical care. It may help people with more widespread or complicated breast inflammation, especially when there are abscesses or skin breakdown.
