Recruiting studies in California
- NCT06896474Recruiting
Breast cancer treatment choice help for women 70 and older

Shorter vs Longer HER2 Therapy for Breast Cancer with Complete Response
This trial compares 6 months versus 12 months of HER2-targeted therapy for people with HER2+ breast cancer who had a complete response after chemo and trastuzumab. The goal is to see if a shorter treatment is just as effective.

San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06533826RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two antibody drugs for HER2-low breast cancer
This trial tests two antibody-drug conjugates (Enhertu and Datroway) for breast cancer that is HER2-low or HER2-0. It aims to find the best treatment sequence for people whose cancer has stopped responding to prior therapy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 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.
Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06445738Recruiting
Can some women safely skip radiation after breast cancer surgery?
This trial is for women 50 and older with early-stage, hormone-positive or HER2-positive breast cancer. It tests whether it is safe to skip radiation therapy after a lumpectomy if an MRI before surgery shows the breast tissue looks a certain way.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 50 years+ - NCT06435429RecruitingPhase 3
Zanidatamab vs trastuzumab for HER2+ breast cancer
This study compares a new drug called zanidatamab against trastuzumab (Herceptin), both given with a chemotherapy of your doctor's choice. It is for people with HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread and who have already tried T-DXd treatment.

Alisertib and hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug, alisertib, combined with hormone therapy for people with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread or come back and is no longer curable. It may be an option if you've already tried at least two hormone therapies and a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05216432RecruitingPhase 1
RLY-2608 for PIK3CA-mutant advanced solid tumors and breast cancer
This early study (Phase 1) tests RLY-2608, a targeted cancer drug for tumors with a PIK3CA mutation. It studies the drug alone and combined with hormone therapy (and sometimes CDK4/6 or CDK4 medicines) to see safety, dose, and whether it can shrink tumors.

Testing enzalutamide with or without mifepristone for AR-positive breast cancer
This trial tests if adding the drug mifepristone to the standard antiandrogen enzalutamide works better than enzalutamide alone or chemotherapy for people with a specific type of breast cancer that has androgen receptors. It aims to find a new targeted treatment option for triple-negative or ER-low breast cancer.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06092892RecruitingPhase 2
Upfront targeted lymph node removal for early breast cancer
This trial is for women age 45 and older with early ER-positive breast cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes under the arm. It tests a surgery approach where the main tumor and only a few key lymph nodes (rather than many) are removed.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 45 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.
Walnut Creek, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06058377RecruitingPhase 3
Adding immunotherapy to chemo for stage II-III breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug durvalumab to standard chemotherapy works better than chemo alone for people with hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer that is stage II or III and has a high-risk genetic score (MammaPrint High Risk 2).

What taking part in a her2 + breast cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
