- NCT06184750RecruitingPhase 2
Finding the best tamoxifen dose to lower breast cancer risk
This trial tests different doses of tamoxifen to find the best one for lowering breast cancer risk in premenopausal women. It aims to see if a lower dose works as well as the standard dose with fewer side effects.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–55 - NCT06123988Recruiting
Fasting and exercise for advanced breast cancer
This study looks at whether fasting overnight and/or doing exercise can help improve fatigue and other quality-of-life measures in women with advanced hormone receptor positive breast cancer who are already taking a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Participation may involve following a fasting or exercise plan for a period of time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06923527RecruitingPhase 2
Testing ctDNA to start elacestrant in early breast cancer
This trial tests whether the drug elacestrant can help prevent recurrence in people with a type of breast cancer (ER+/HER2-) who have finished hormone therapy and have signs of cancer DNA in their blood (ctDNA positive) but no visible spread on scans.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05573126RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of EP0062 for advanced breast cancer with AR+ and ER+
This Phase 1/2 study tests EP0062, a study medicine given alone or with other treatments, in people with advanced or metastatic breast cancer. It’s designed to see how well it works and what side effects it causes when the cancer has specific hormone-receptor markers (AR+ and ER+) and is HER2-negative.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05929768RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy without anthracyclines for early TNBC
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a shorter course of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy can work as well as standard treatment for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. It avoids anthracycline drugs and may help reduce exposure to those medicines if the shorter plan is effective and safe.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04230109RecruitingPhase 2
Sacituzumab Govitecan for newly diagnosed TNBC
This trial tests a drug called sacituzumab govitecan for people with newly diagnosed triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that hasn't been treated yet. The drug targets cancer cells directly to try to stop them from growing.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06966700RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Sac-TMT in Early High-Risk Breast Cancer
This study tests a new drug called Sacituzumab Tirumotecan (Sac-TMT) for people with early-stage, high-risk breast cancer that hasn't spread. The drug is given before surgery to see if it can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05696626RecruitingPhase 3
Test a new pill plus abemaciclib versus standard therapy
This Phase 3 study compares lasofoxifene plus abemaciclib versus fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has an ESR1 mutation. It looks for better tumor control in people whose cancer has progressed on hormone therapy (an aromatase inhibitor) and who meet specific safety and testing requirements.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06488378RecruitingPhase 1
Axatilimab and olaparib for BRCA/PALB2-mutated breast cancer
This trial tests combining two drugs – axatilimab and olaparib (a PARP inhibitor) – for people with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer that carries a BRCA or PALB2 gene mutation. The goal is to see if this new combination is safe and effective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05304962RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug RGT-419B for advanced ER+ HER2- breast cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a new drug (RGT-419B), given alone or with hormone (endocrine) therapy, in people with advanced ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has progressed after standard treatments. It looks mainly at safety and early signs of how well the treatment may work.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05608252RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug combination for advanced ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer
This Phase 1/2 study tests how well a new treatment combination (VS-6766, abemaciclib, and fulvestrant) works for metastatic or hard-to-remove breast cancer that is hormone-driven (ER/PR positive) and HER2 negative. It is mainly designed to find the safest dose and then see whether it can control the cancer after it has progressed on certain prior medicines.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07482384Recruiting
Support program for young women with early-stage breast cancer
This study tests a mobile health program that provides support and information to young women with early-stage breast cancer who are on hormone therapy. The goal is to help you stay on your treatment and manage side effects.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–49 - NCT06896474Recruiting
Breast cancer treatment choice help for women 70 and older
This study tests a decision aid to help women 70 and older with early stage breast cancer choose their treatment. It looks at whether the tool helps patients and their doctors make a confident treatment choice.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06492616RecruitingPhase 3
Elacestrant versus standard hormone therapy for early breast cancer
This trial compares a new medicine, elacestrant, to the usual hormone therapy for people with early-stage breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative, and who have a high chance of it coming back. The goal is to see if elacestrant works better at preventing the cancer from returning.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06590857RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of targeted radiation for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new type of radiation therapy that targets a specific protein on some breast cancer cells. It may help people whose cancer has stopped responding to other treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT03723928Recruiting
Blood test–guided monitoring for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This study checks whether specific blood “tumor marker” levels can help monitor how hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer responds to first-line therapy. It uses regular blood tests (and sometimes scans) to see if this marker-based monitoring is useful and reliable.
Winchester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07085767RecruitingPhase 3
Palazestrant and ribociclib for first-line advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug (palazestrant) combined with ribociclib for people with a common type of advanced breast cancer that is estrogen receptor-positive and HER2-negative. You may qualify if you haven't had treatment for advanced disease and your cancer has either just been found or came back long after completing hormone therapy.
Burlington, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07427394RecruitingPhase 2
Camizestrant and atirmociclib for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests two experimental drugs—camizestrant and atirmociclib—for women with advanced ER-positive breast cancer that has worsened after prior treatment. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and tolerable.
East Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06188520RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors in women
