Cambridge, CambridgeshireAges 16–70 - NCT03536897Recruiting
Radiation registry after lumpectomy for certain early breast cancers
This study collects information about people with early-stage, hormone-receptor–positive breast cancer who have a lumpectomy and radiation. It may help doctors understand outcomes after this standard treatment and improve care for future patients.
Columbus, OhioAges 65 years+ - NCT03591276RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Doxorubicin plus pembrolizumab for hormone-resistant breast cancer
This Phase 1b/2 trial tests a combination of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin and pembrolizumab for breast cancer that no longer responds to hormone treatment. It aims to see how well the combination works and how safely it can be given to patients with advanced disease.
JerusalemAges 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+ - NCT03740893RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug to block DNA damage in triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies a treatment given around the time of breast surgery to help shrink or control residual (remaining) triple-negative breast cancer. It also checks biomarkers (lab signals) to understand who benefits, with some people receiving anti–PD-L1 immunotherapy and some not.
Bournemouth, DorsetAges 18 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+ - NCT03971045RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus low-dose oral chemo for chest wall breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus low-dose oral cyclophosphamide in people with chest wall breast cancer that has spread locally and may have distant metastases. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors and control cancer longer, especially in tumors with certain immune markers.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07702708Recruiting
AI predicts chemotherapy response in HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This trial uses AI to analyze your pre-treatment MRI and predict how well your tumor will respond to chemotherapy before surgery. It is for people with HR+/HER2- breast cancer who need chemo before their operation.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06964906RecruitingPhase 2
HIFU, immunotherapy, and chemo for ER+ HER2- breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU, a non-invasive treatment that uses sound waves to heat and destroy tumor tissue) with the immunotherapy drug toripalimab and standard chemotherapy before surgery for women with a specific type of breast cancer (ER-positive, HER2-negative). The goal is to see if this approach can improve treatment outcomes for women with high-risk disease.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT04030507Recruiting
Brain MRI screening during chemotherapy for breast cancer
This trial checks the brain using MRI in people with breast cancer that has spread outside the breast or can’t be fully removed. The goal is to screen for brain involvement and see how MRI findings fit with treatment timing, when it’s safe to do so.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04069884Recruiting
Avoid extra lymph-node radiation for certain node-positive breast cancers
This trial tests a way to decide whether you can safely receive less radiation to lymph nodes after surgery for breast cancer that has spread to nearby nodes. If you qualify as “low risk,” the goal is to reduce radiation exposure while keeping cancer control safe.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT04383275RecruitingPhase 2
De-escalation trial for early HER2+ breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer may be treated with less intensive therapy, without losing effectiveness. You may be considered if your tumor is small, lymph nodes are negative, and your hormone (ER/PR) status and HER2 test results match the study groups.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT04526587Recruiting
Study of breast cancer markers after CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment
This study looks at lab markers and clinical features in people with certain types of breast cancer who are being treated with, or have already been treated with a CDK4/6 inhibitor like abemaciclib (ciclib-based therapy). It aims to understand patterns that may help doctors better characterize breast cancer after these treatments.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04601116RecruitingPhase 3
Atorvastatin for hormone-positive breast cancer to prevent recurrence
This Phase 3 study tests whether taking atorvastatin (a cholesterol-lowering medicine) can improve outcomes for women with estrogen-receptor–positive breast cancer. It may help by affecting cancer-related pathways and reducing risk of recurrence or progression.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT04646759RecruitingPhase 3
Fulvestrant or capecitabine plus pyrotinib for metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests adding pyrotinib to standard hormone-based treatments (fulvestrant or capecitabine) to slow or control metastatic breast cancer. It’s for tumors that are hormone-receptor positive and HER2 positive, where standard options have been used before.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - 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 - 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+ - 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.
