Recruiting studies
- NCT04824014RecruitingPhase 2
PET imaging for ER+ advanced breast cancer
This trial uses a special PET scan called 4FMFES-PET to take detailed pictures of ER-positive breast cancer that has spread. It helps doctors see where the cancer is and how active it is, which may guide treatment decisions.
Sherbrooke, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04802759RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing drug combinations for recurrent or advanced ER-positive breast cancer
This early-phase trial tests several combinations of cancer medicines to slow or control ER-positive breast cancer that has returned or progressed. It also checks safety and whether tumor or blood biomarkers can help match the right treatment to the right person.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04768426RecruitingPhase 2
Watching DNA in blood while taking capecitabine after breast cancer
This trial checks how a blood test that looks for cancer DNA (ctDNA) changes during and after you take capecitabine after early triple-negative breast cancer. It aims to see whether these blood test results can help monitor the chance of the cancer coming back.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04683679RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus pembrolizumab and olaparib for certain breast cancers
This study tests whether adding the drugs pembrolizumab and olaparib (or similar “radiosensitizers”) to radiation can improve outcomes for women with advanced breast cancer that is triple-negative or ER-positive/Her2-negative. It’s designed for cancers that have spread or come back and where radiation is being considered to control disease.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04660435Recruiting
Study how breast cancers resist CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment
This study looks at why some ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancers don’t respond well to CDK4/6 inhibitors combined with hormone therapy. It may help researchers understand resistance and improve future treatment choices for people like you.
Prato, TuscanyAges Any age - NCT04589468Recruiting
Exercise for cancer survivors at high risk
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help prevent cancer from coming back in people who have been treated for certain solid tumors (colorectal, ovarian, lung, or breast cancer). If you've completed surgery and adjuvant therapy within the past 2 years and are currently not exercising much, you may be eligible. Participation involves following an exercise plan and regular check-ins.
Durate, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04517266Recruiting
Testing less radiation to the inner breast area
This trial studies whether some patients with early-stage breast cancer can safely skip a specific part of radiation to the inner chest (called internal mammary irradiation). It may reduce radiation side effects while still aiming to prevent the cancer from coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04523857RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib and hydroxychloroquine after breast cancer relapse risk
This Phase 2 trial tests whether abemaciclib plus hydroxychloroquine can kill tiny “leftover” cancer cells in the bone marrow after standard breast cancer treatment. It may help lower the chance of cancer coming back by targeting minimal residual disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04521764RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine for Metastatic Breast Cancer
This trial tests a vaccine (MV-s-NAP) that is injected directly into a tumor to stimulate your immune system against breast cancer. It is for people with metastatic breast cancer that has spread despite prior treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04517838Recruiting
Testing immune responses to anti-HER2 breast cancer treatments
This study looks at how your immune system reacts to anti-HER2 treatments in people with HER2-positive breast cancer. It may help doctors understand who responds best by studying immune signals in blood (and sometimes tissue) during or after treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04434040RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab and sacituzumab to prevent breast cancer return
This trial tests two medicines after surgery and chemotherapy to help lower the risk that triple-negative breast cancer comes back. It’s for people whose cancer still showed “residual” invasive disease after neoadjuvant (before-surgery) chemotherapy, and whose blood test shows traces of tumor DNA.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04348747RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus pembrolizumab for breast cancer in the brain
This trial studies whether a personalized immune-cell vaccine (dendritic cell vaccine) combined with pembrolizumab can help control brain metastases from certain types of breast cancer. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack cancer cells in the brain.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04360330Recruiting
MRI study in early breast cancer with specific lab markers
This study tests selected treatment decisions for women with early-stage breast cancer that has certain lab test results. It may help researchers better match care using MRI and tumor marker information.
Miami, FloridaAges 50 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+ - NCT04234386Recruiting
Short-course targeted radiation for early breast cancer
This trial tests a radiation plan called GammaPod to treat early breast cancer with precise targeting. It may help patients by delivering the treatment in a more focused way, while checking safety and tumor control in the smallest, well-defined cancers.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 45 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+ - NCT04090567RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib with two partners for advanced BRCA breast cancer
This trial tests whether the drug olaparib works better when combined with cediranib or AZD6738 in people with advanced or metastatic BRCA (inherited) breast cancer. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth after prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04084730RecruitingPhase 2
3-day radiation after breast-conserving surgery for certain breast cancers
This trial tests whether a shorter, 3-day course of partial breast radiation after surgery works as well as standard radiation for women with early-stage breast cancer. It may help reduce time in treatment while aiming to keep cancer from coming back in the treated breast area.
Norwalk, ConnecticutAges 45 years+ - NCT03936478RecruitingPhase 2
MRI-guided partial breast radiation in three short treatments
This study tests a faster, targeted type of radiation for early breast cancer, using real-time MRI to help plan and guide treatment. It may help deliver the same cancer-fighting effect while limiting radiation to the rest of the breast.
Madison, WisconsinAges 40 years+ - 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.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT03606967RecruitingPhase 2
Individualized vaccine added to standard treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding a personalized cancer vaccine to durvalumab (an immunotherapy), tremelimumab (another immunotherapy), and chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. It may help your immune system recognize your specific tumor features.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02945579Recruiting
Testing skipping breast surgery or radiation for top responders
This trial studies whether some people with early-stage breast cancer who respond extremely well to hormone/chemo/targeted treatment can safely skip breast surgery and/or radiation. It aims to reduce side effects without increasing cancer risk in carefully selected patients.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 30 years+ - NCT02732171Recruiting
Blood and bone marrow tests to track breast cancer return
This trial checks whether specific “surveillance” markers (measured from blood and bone marrow) can help predict if breast cancer comes back after standard treatments. It may help doctors monitor you more accurately and earlier if recurrence risk is high.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02476786RecruitingPhase 2
Hormone treatment only for older ER-positive breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether using hormone (endocrine) treatment alone can control breast cancer in people age 70 and older. It targets breast cancers that are estrogen-receptor positive and HER2 negative, aiming to avoid chemotherapy-like treatments in suitable patients.
