Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05858398Recruiting
How body composition affects chemotherapy results in breast cancer
This study looks at whether body fat and muscle (body composition) change how well certain chemotherapy works after surgery for early breast cancer. You may be considered if you are planned to receive docetaxel as adjuvant (after-surgery) chemotherapy and have recent CT scan images.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT05861271RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant pyrotinib plus capecitabine for tiny HER2 breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding pyrotinib and capecitabine after surgery can lower the risk of cancer coming back in people with very small, lymph-node–negative, HER2-positive breast cancer. It’s for patients who fit specific tumor size and HER2 test results and who can safely take chemotherapy-like medicines and stay on contraception during treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05877859Recruiting
Testing pembrolizumab with chemo before breast cancer surgery
This trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) to standard chemotherapy before surgery improves immune and clinical responses in people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. You may benefit by getting a potentially more effective treatment plan, while the study team closely monitors your response.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05891093RecruitingPhase 3
Fluzoparib plus hormone therapy after surgery for breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether fluzoparib added to standard hormone (endocrine) therapy after early breast cancer surgery can improve outcomes and safety. It may help patients whose tumors are ER-positive, HER2-negative, and a specific SNF3 subtype.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05891561RecruitingPhase 2
Short antibody treatment after surgery for early HER2+ breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a shorter schedule of trastuzumab and pertuzumab combined with chemotherapy (taxanes) to reduce breast cancer coming back after surgery. It mainly helps people with early-stage, HER2-positive breast cancer that has not spread, by testing whether a shorter plan still works well and is tolerable.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05906407Recruiting
Genetic-guided treatment planning for high-risk early breast cancer
This study uses tumor genetic testing to help plan more precise treatment for people with early high-risk breast cancer. You may be asked to give a recent tumor sample so researchers can match your cancer features with the best available options.
AugsburgAges 18–80 - NCT05935150Recruiting
Skipping lymph node surgery in early breast cancer
This trial studies whether you can safely avoid a lymph node biopsy in the armpit for early breast cancer when scans and exams look negative. It may reduce surgery-related side effects while still keeping cancer care on track.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–70 - NCT05957068Recruiting
Exercise program for breast cancer after surgery
This study tests an exercise intervention for people with early-to-mid stage breast cancer soon after curative breast surgery (and after chemo and/or radiation if you had it). It may help improve recovery, physical strength, and overall wellbeing by making exercise safer and more structured during this period.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT05977036Recruiting
Biomarker test to guide early treatment for HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This study uses a lab “biomarker” test to help doctors choose the best first treatment for people with HR+ (hormone-receptor positive), HER2-negative metastatic or unresectable breast cancer. The goal is to see if this biomarker-guided approach can improve which therapy you start with.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05981326Recruiting
Computer model to predict chemo response in early breast cancer
This study looks at how well a computer model can predict if breast cancer will completely respond to chemotherapy before surgery. It is for people with early-stage breast cancer who are about to start neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06000917RecruitingPhase 2
Study of combination therapy before surgery for ER+/HER2+ breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapies and chemotherapy given before surgery for women with a specific type of breast cancer that is both ER-positive and HER2-positive. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06001086RecruitingPhase 2
Disitamab Vedotin plus Pyrotinib for HER2-positive early breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (Disitamab Vedotin and Pyrotinib) for people with HER2-positive early breast cancer. It aims to see if this treatment can improve outcomes before standard therapy.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06035016Recruiting
Pyrotinib and capecitabine after surgery for HER2+ breast cancer
This study tests whether taking pyrotinib (a daily pill) with capecitabine (another pill) after breast cancer surgery can help prevent HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer from coming back. It is for women who have already had their cancer removed and meet certain risk criteria.
