Recruiting studies
- 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+ - NCT04750122RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug-screening guided treatment before surgery for HER2 breast cancer
This trial tests a treatment plan that is chosen using drug-testing in a lab (to see which medicines may work best) before surgery. It is for people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer, aiming to improve outcomes by guiding the right treatment early.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05190094RecruitingPhase 2
Test blood-based laser scan to guide first-line breast cancer treatment
This Phase 2 study uses a specialized laser test on a blood sample to predict how well palbociclib plus letrozole or anastrozole will work. It’s for certain postmenopausal women with HER2-negative, hormone-receptor positive, advanced (stage IIIb/IV) breast cancer.
BlidaAges 18 years+ - NCT04985266RecruitingPhase 2
Watch blood DNA for early breast cancer return, then add palbociclib
This study checks for early signs that ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer may be coming back by testing your blood for cancer DNA. If signs are found, it tests whether adding palbociclib plus fulvestrant works better than standard hormone therapy alone to prevent recurrence.
AngersAges 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT04836156RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized pre-surgery treatment for HER2-negative early breast cancer
This study tests a treatment plan chosen using lab drug testing on a patient’s tumor (in a dish). It may help improve outcomes for people with early breast cancer that is HER2-negative by matching therapy to what the tumor seems sensitive to.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT04481932RecruitingPhase 2
Trastuzumab with chemo for HER2-positive breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding trastuzumab (a targeted antibody) given with chemo and extra drugs can better treat certain HER2-positive, locally advanced or inflammatory breast cancers. It may help by improving cancer control in people who have not had prior anti-cancer treatment for their breast cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT04144569RecruitingPhase 2
PD-1 plus pyrotinib for HER2-mutated lung cancer after chemo
This trial tests a combination treatment—PD-1 plus pyrotinib—in people with advanced lung cancer that has a specific HER2 “insertion” genetic change. It may help if your first standard chemotherapy did not work and you still have measurable tumors to track.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT04547309Recruiting
Imaging test using a HER2-targeting tracer
This trial studies an imaging tracer that targets HER2, a protein that can be found in certain cancers. It may help doctors see where HER2-positive tumors are in the body using scans.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 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+ - NCT06065748RecruitingPhase 3
New hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer after prior treatment
This trial tests a new oral hormone therapy, giredestrant, against a standard hormone therapy (fulvestrant) when both are given with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. It is for people with advanced ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has come back after initial hormone therapy, and who have not yet had other treatments for advanced disease.
Daphne, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06452277RecruitingPhase 3
Testing sevabertinib for advanced HER2-mutated lung cancer
This trial compares a new targeted drug called sevabertinib against standard chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific HER2 gene mutation. The goal is to see if sevabertinib works better and is safe.
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04576143RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Dose-dense chemo before surgery for HER2-negative breast cancer
This trial studies a faster, higher-frequency chemotherapy schedule given before surgery for HER2-negative breast cancer. It aims to see if this approach works better and is safe for the patient’s cancer stage.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT06518382Recruiting
Study of leftover tumor after chemo and trastuzumab
