Recruiting studies
- NCT06058988RecruitingPhase 2
T-DXd for people with brain cancer
This trial tests a drug called Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) for people with brain tumors that are either glioblastoma or have spread from other cancers. Doctors will see if T-DXd can shrink tumors or slow their growth, and they will collect tumor tissue during surgery or biopsy to study how the drug works.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05800275RecruitingPhase 2
Tucatinib and capecitabine plus spinal trastuzumab for HER2+ cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of tucatinib and capecitabine (taken by mouth) plus trastuzumab delivered into the spinal fluid, to treat breast cancer that has spread to the leptomeninges (lining around the brain/spinal cord). It may help reduce cancer activity in the spinal fluid and improve symptoms.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05422794RecruitingPhase 1
Adding a new drug plus pembrolizumab to standard chemo for TNBC
This trial studies whether adding a new anti-cancer drug (ZEN-3694) and the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to standard chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel) can work better for advanced triple-negative breast cancer. It’s testing safety first (Phase 1) and, for some patients, how well the treatment controls the cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05377996RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced solid tumors with tumor tissue testing

Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05376878RecruitingPhase 4
PET/MRI scan to guide treatment in HER2+ brain metastatic breast cancer
This trial tests a special PET/MRI imaging scan using a labeled drug to help doctors evaluate HER2+ breast cancer that has spread to the brain. It focuses on patients who plan to receive fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan, a targeted cancer medicine, and aims to see how well the scan can support treatment decisions.

Study drug for HER2-negative, advanced breast cancer after prior treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests patritumab deruxtecan (U3-1402) in people with HER2-negative, hormone-receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It’s for cancers that have progressed despite endocrine therapy plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor, aiming to shrink tumors and control the disease.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT05095207RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Abemaciclib and bicalutamide for HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether combining abemaciclib with bicalutamide can slow or shrink HER2-negative, androgen receptor–positive (AR-positive) metastatic breast cancer. It mainly looks at safety and side effects, and also whether the combination can help patients with this type of breast cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 18–90 - NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04899908RecruitingPhase 2
Brain radiation with or without gadolinium nanoparticles for brain metastases
This trial tests whether adding tiny gadolinium-containing nanoparticles to standard brain radiation can better control brain metastases from certain cancers. It is for people with tumors that have grown after immunotherapy, are from certain cancers (like melanoma, GI, or HER2+ breast), are cystic, are large, or have come back after prior radiation.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 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+ - NCT02422641RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose methotrexate for breast cancer in the brain lining
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving high-dose methotrexate into the bloodstream can help treat breast cancer that has spread to the thin lining covering the brain and spinal cord. It may help reduce cancer in the leptomeningeal (brain-lining) area and control symptoms.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06641544RecruitingPhase 4
Testing different drug combos for HER2-positive breast cancer
This trial tests different combinations of the drug Inetetamab as a first treatment for breast cancer that has spread and is HER2-positive. It aims to find which combo works best and is safe for newly diagnosed metastatic patients.
Shanwei, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06260033RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation Therapy for Oligoprogressive ER+ Breast Cancer
This trial tests whether a precise radiation treatment (SBRT) can target a few growing spots of estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It also uses a special PET scan (FES PET/CT) to see how well the cancer responds. The goal is to slow down the cancer and delay the need for stronger treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03424005RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing new drug combinations for advanced breast cancer
This study tests how well and how safely different combinations of cancer drugs work for people with metastatic or inoperable locally advanced breast cancer. It may help by finding a better treatment option and collecting information to guide future care.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05386108RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test abemaciclib plus elacestrant for breast cancer brain spread
This trial studies whether the combination of abemaciclib and elacestrant can slow or shrink ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain. It is designed for people whose cancer has progressed despite prior hormone (endocrine) treatment.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04159818RecruitingPhase 2
Adding immune treatments to improve checkpoint drug response in TNBC
This Phase 2 trial tests strategies meant to “prime” the immune system so that immune checkpoint medicines may work better in people with triple-negative breast cancer that has spread (or can’t be fully cured). You might be considered if your cancer has measurable areas that can be biopsied and you meet specific health and prior-treatment rules.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05000294RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Atezolizumab plus tivozanib for hard-to-treat “cold” cancers
This early-stage study tests whether combining atezolizumab and tivozanib can shrink advanced, hard-to-treat cancers that do not strongly activate the immune system (“immunologically cold”). It is for people whose cancer has already been treated or has no good standard options.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–99 - NCT07132749Enrolling by invitation
NEPA for nausea prevention during T-DXd in advanced HER2+ or HER2-low breast cancer
This trial tests whether the anti-nausea combination NEPA (netupitant and palonosetron) can prevent nausea and vomiting caused by the targeted therapy T-DXd in people with advanced HER2-positive or HER2-low breast cancer. It may help you if you are about to start T-DXd for the first time and want to manage treatment side effects.
Seoul, Gangnam-guAges 19 years+ - NCT06242470RecruitingPhase 1
Study of MGC026 for advanced solid tumors
