Personalized pembrolizumab after strong chemo response for early triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is for people with early triple-negative breast cancer who had a strong response to chemotherapy combined with pembrolizumab before surgery. It aims to find the best way to continue using pembrolizumab after surgery to reduce the risk of cancer coming back.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06610565Recruiting
Fasting-mimicking diet for breast cancer side effects
This study tests if a special diet that mimics fasting can help reduce side effects from hormone therapy (aromatase inhibitors) in women with breast cancer. The diet is a low-calorie meal plan designed to lower cholesterol and improve well-being.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06633601RecruitingPhase 1

LjubljanaAges 18–99 - NCT06676761Recruiting
Study of a new minimal scar mastectomy
This trial is testing a new surgical technique that leaves a smaller scar during mastectomy for breast cancer. It may be a good option if you want to keep the scar as small as possible.
SingaporeAges Any age - NCT06677944RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation before surgery for early-stage breast cancer
This trial tests giving radiation to the tumor area before surgery for women with early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer. The idea is to see if giving radiation first can help protect healthy tissue while still being effective.
SeoulAges 45 years+ - NCT06698679Recruiting
Plasma markers and breast cancer risk & treatment
This study looks at substances in your blood (metabolites) to see if they are linked to breast cancer risk, how well treatment works, and long-term outcomes. It has three groups: women without breast cancer, newly diagnosed patients getting standard therapy, and those who have finished treatment.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18 years+ - NCT04968964Recruiting
Monitoring test for CDK4/6 drugs in metastatic breast cancer
This study follows people with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer who are taking CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment (with or without an added blood test called DiviTum®). The goal is to see how well the standard treatment is working and whether DiviTum® (a serum TK1 activity test) can help guide monitoring.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06728527Recruiting
Partial breast reconstruction with chest wall flap
This trial tests a specific type of partial breast reconstruction called a chest wall perforator flap. It's for women who previously had a lumpectomy and now want to improve the shape of their breast.
Cambridge, CambridgeshireAges 18 years+ - NCT06762496Recruiting
A tool to help you stay involved in your breast cancer care
This study is testing a new tool designed to help you take a more active role in your healthcare journey. It's for people with early-stage breast cancer that can be surgically removed.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06768931RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy before surgery for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests adding an immunotherapy drug to standard chemotherapy before surgery for triple-negative breast cancer. The goal is to see if this combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18 years+ - NCT06777420Recruiting
Question list for breast cancer patients before chemo
This study tests whether a list of helpful questions can improve communication and care for breast cancer patients who will receive chemotherapy before surgery. It aims to support patients in talking with their doctors about what matters most to them.
Uppsala, Region UppsalaAges 18 years+ - NCT06781996RecruitingPhase 3
Digital tool to help manage hormone therapy side effects
This trial tests a digital tool (a smartphone app) to help women and men with early breast cancer manage side effects from hormone therapy. The goal is to improve quality of life during treatment.
VillejuifAges 18 years+ - NCT06797531Recruiting
Ribociclib Real-World Study in Early Breast Cancer
This study observes people with early-stage hormone receptor positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who are taking ribociclib (Kisqali) with hormone therapy after surgery. It aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is in real life.

Study of Patritumab Deruxtecan and Pembrolizumab for High-Risk Early Breast Cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapies (patritumab deruxtecan plus pembrolizumab) along with other anticancer drugs for people with a high-risk type of early-stage breast cancer that is either triple-negative or has very low hormone receptors and is HER2-negative. The goal is to see if this approach can help prevent the cancer from coming back.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 430 recruiting early breast cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a early breast cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a early breast cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
