Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06446882Recruiting
HER2DX test to guide treatment for early HER2+ breast cancer
This trial tests whether a new test (HER2DX) can help doctors choose the best treatment combination for HER2-positive breast cancer before surgery. It's for people whose cancer hasn't spread and who haven't started therapy yet.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT06479460Recruiting
Blood test monitoring during chemo before surgery for HER2-positive breast cancer
This trial tests whether a blood test (ctDNA) can help doctors monitor how well chemotherapy before surgery is working in women with HER2-positive breast cancer. It aims to see if changes in the blood can predict treatment success.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06498154RecruitingPhase 2
Skipping breast surgery for some patients after chemo
This trial tests whether women with certain aggressive breast cancers (HER2-positive without hormone receptors, or triple-negative) can safely skip breast surgery if chemotherapy makes their tumor completely disappear. The goal is to avoid surgery and its side effects when it may no longer be needed.
TianjinAges 18–70 - NCT06606730RecruitingPhase 3
Personalized pembrolizumab after strong chemo response for early triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is for people with early triple-negative breast cancer who had a strong response to chemotherapy combined with pembrolizumab before surgery. It aims to find the best way to continue using pembrolizumab after surgery to reduce the risk of cancer coming back.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06650423Recruiting
Staying on hormone therapy for early breast cancer
This study looks at how well patients take their hormone-lowering pills (aromatase inhibitors, with or without abemaciclib) for early-stage breast cancer. It aims to understand adherence patterns and help improve support for patients.
LjubljanaAges 18–99 - NCT06777420Recruiting
Question list for breast cancer patients before chemo
