Recruiting studies
- NCT05504707RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug for early-stage, HER2-negative, low-risk hormone breast cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a new study drug called DC1 given before standard breast cancer treatments. It focuses on people with HER2-negative breast cancer that is “hormone negative” or “hormone low,” aiming to see if the treatment is safe and whether it may work before surgery or other local therapy.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05464810RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Letrozole with or without a cholesterol drug for early breast cancer
This early-phase study tests whether adding simvastatin to letrozole can improve outcomes in people with stage I–III breast cancer that grows with hormone signals (hormone receptor positive) and does not have HER2. It looks mainly at whether the approach is safe and useful for this specific breast cancer type.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05467891RecruitingPhase 2
Ribociclib plus hormone therapy for recurrent breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding ribociclib (a targeted pill) to hormone therapy can control breast cancer that has come back in the breast area or nearby lymph nodes/chest wall. It targets hormone-receptor–positive and HER2-negative tumors to help slow disease after local treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05423977Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Testing ZV0203 for HER2-positive advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests ZV0203, a new investigational treatment, in people with HER2-positive advanced or metastatic solid tumors that cannot be removed and have not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to find a safe dose and see how the disease responds.
Zigong, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05388149RecruitingPhase 2
Neratinib plus Kadcyla to treat leftover HER2 breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding neratinib to Kadcyla (T-DM1) can help eliminate “molecular residual disease,” meaning tiny traces of cancer left after surgery and standard HER2 treatment. It’s for adults with HER2-positive breast cancer who still test positive after a short course of Kadcyla, with no signs of cancer returning or spreading on scans.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05356741RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug VIR-5818 with and without pembrolizumab
This early trial tests whether VIR-5818 given through a vein is safe and whether it works better when combined with pembrolizumab. It’s for adults with HER2-positive cancers that are locally advanced or spread, and the study checks safety, side effects, and early signs of effect.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05325632RecruitingPhase 2
HER2 breast cancer vaccine plus chemo and targeted antibodies
This Phase 2 study tests a personalized immune-therapy vaccine made from your immune cells, given with weekly paclitaxel and HER2-targeted antibodies (trastuzumab and pertuzumab). It aims to improve treatment outcomes for people with HER2-positive breast cancer before standard local treatment (like surgery and radiation).
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05306041RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery hormone therapy with or without PI3K inhibitor
This trial tests whether giving hormone-blocking treatment before surgery works better when combined with an added targeted drug for certain breast cancers. It may help shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for people whose tumors have specific hormone and genetic features.
Essen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT05305924RecruitingPhase 2
Fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER+, HER2− advanced breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding abemaciclib to fulvestrant can slow or shrink ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. It is mainly for people whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor and an aromatase inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05245058RecruitingEarly Phase 1
SPH5030 for HER2-positive advanced solid tumors
This early-stage study tests SPH5030 tablets in people with HER2-positive advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment or have no standard option. It aims to see whether the treatment can shrink tumors and is safe enough to move forward.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT05099172RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted therapy for advanced lung cancer with EGFR or HER2 changes
This trial tests a new targeted drug for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has specific genetic changes (EGFR or HER2). The drug may slow cancer growth and help you live longer.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05029999RecruitingPhase 1
Test drugs for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of immune-targeting drugs (a CD40 medicine and a substance that helps immune cells act) plus chemotherapy in people with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has progressed. It aims to find a safer dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–99 - NCT05035836RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug after early HER2-positive breast cancer surgery
This trial tests zanidatamab, a type of targeted antibody treatment, in people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer to see how well it works and how safe it is. Because it’s a single-arm pilot study, everyone in the study gets the drug, and you’ll likely be asked to undergo standard surgery if appropriate.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04997993RecruitingPhase 1
Leflunomide for PTEN-altered or HER2-negative metastatic cancers
This Phase 1 trial studies whether leflunomide can slow or control advanced (metastatic) cancers in people whose tumors have specific PTEN changes or who have HER2-negative breast cancer. It’s primarily a safety-and-dosing study, but it may offer benefit if your cancer matches the tumor marker requirements.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04638725Recruiting
Genetics study to find why HER2 breast cancer treatment varies
This study looks at genetic factors to understand why some people’s HER2-positive breast cancer responds better—or has more side effects—after treatment. Your info and possible past treatment history may help researchers improve how HER2 treatment is chosen and managed.
StrasbourgAges 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+ - NCT04332588RecruitingPhase 1
Testing PET/MRI monitoring for HER2-positive breast cancer before surgery
This early-phase study looks at how well PET/MRI scans can monitor treatment response in people with HER2-positive breast cancer before surgery. You may be asked to undergo specific scans during “neoadjuvant” therapy (treatment given before the main operation).
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 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+ - NCT04150042RecruitingPhase 1
Test of chemotherapy plus your own stem cells for metastatic cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a treatment approach using standard chemotherapy along with stem cells taken from you to treat metastatic pancreatic or breast cancer. It is mainly designed to check safety and find the best way to give the treatment, and it may offer an option for people whose cancer has spread.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04144023RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine before surgery for HER2-positive breast duct cancer in place
This Phase 1 study tests a vaccine (H2NVAC) given before surgery to help the body fight HER2-expressing ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) that has not been removed yet. Because it’s early-stage, the main goal is to check safety and learn how the treatment may work.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03740256RecruitingPhase 1
HER2-targeted oncolytic virus plus custom immune cells for solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a treatment plan that combines a virus designed to attack cancer with your own custom immune cells that target HER2. It aims to shrink advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (and make future options safer/more effective).
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01042379RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive drug trial for newly diagnosed breast cancer
This study tests personalized, changing treatment plans (given before surgery) to find better options for your specific breast tumor. You may be asked for extra breast-tissue testing to help match you with the most suitable study drug(s).
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05296577RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, anlotinib and vinorelbine, for people with advanced breast cancer that is HER2-negative. It aims to see if this combination can help when other treatments have stopped working.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07619534Recruiting
Collecting Spinal Fluid from Advanced Breast Cancer Patients
This study collects spinal fluid samples from people with advanced (metastatic) HER2-positive or triple-negative breast cancer who have never had, and currently do not have, cancer spread to the brain.
