Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06652295Enrolling by invitation
Self-physiotherapy for lymphedema

Tacrolimus cream for breast cancer-related lymphedema
This study tests if a cream called tacrolimus can help reduce swelling in the arm caused by breast cancer treatment (lymphedema). It is looking for women with mild to moderate swelling that has not yet caused severe skin changes.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT07067710Recruiting
Imagery and movement study for breast cancer survivors
This study tests if visualizing and watching movements can help improve strength, motion, pain, and fear of movement in women who finished breast cancer treatment. It focuses on those with arm issues like pain, limited movement, or lymphedema.
Pamplona, NavarreAges 18 years+ - NCT05848141Recruiting
Rowing program after breast cancer treatment
This study looks at whether supervised rowing exercise after breast cancer treatment is safe and helpful for recovery and health. You may be able to join if you finished treatment within the last 6–24 months and have no major exercise-limiting heart or health problems.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 40–80 - NCT07743294Recruiting
Exercise before breast cancer surgery to reduce arm swelling
This trial tests whether doing specific exercises before breast cancer surgery helps reduce arm swelling (lymphedema) after surgery, and improves quality of life and care needs. You would participate in a supervised exercise program before your surgery and then follow up after.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT04606030Recruiting
Tested lymph surgery for breast-cancer–related arm swelling
This trial studies a specialized lymph surgery (called VLNT, moving lymph tissue) to treat swelling in an arm caused by breast cancer treatment. It may help reduce lymphedema that doesn’t fully improve with compression and elevation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–75 - NCT04914663Recruiting
Exercise program during breast cancer chemotherapy
This study tests whether supervised exercise during chemotherapy is safe and helpful for people with early-stage breast cancer. It may support physical function and well-being while you are receiving cancer treatment.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–85 - NCT05913713Recruiting
High-intensity exercise after breast cancer chemotherapy
This study tests whether a structured high-intensity interval exercise program after chemotherapy is safe and helpful for people with early-stage breast cancer. It may improve physical fitness and recovery while they are on typical cancer treatments.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–85 - NCT07377279Recruiting
Acupuncture and compression to prevent nerve pain from chemo
This trial tests whether acupuncture and compression therapy can prevent nerve damage caused by taxane chemotherapy in early-stage breast cancer. It aims to reduce numbness, tingling, or pain in the hands and feet.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07542106Recruiting
Visual Biofeedback vs. Standard Therapy After Breast Cancer Surgery
This study compares a new visual biofeedback program (using real-time visual feedback to guide exercises) with standard physical therapy to help restore shoulder movement, strength, and function in women recovering from breast cancer surgery. The goal is to see which approach helps patients regain mobility and reduce pain more effectively.
Badajoz, BadajozAges 18 years+ - NCT04356235Recruiting
Comparing immediate vs delayed breast implant reconstruction results
This study compares two timing options for rebuilding the breast with implants, looking at cosmetic results, quality of life, and patient satisfaction. It may help you understand which approach could fit you better and what to expect over follow-up time.
BudapestAges 18–65 - NCT06321653Recruiting
Lymphedema after radiation for early breast cancer with 1-2 positive nodes
This trial aims to see if a shorter course of radiation after breast-conserving surgery affects arm swelling (lymphedema) in people with early breast cancer that has spread to 1 or 2 nearby lymph nodes. The goal is to learn if this approach is safe and effective.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05725265Recruiting
Low-level laser treatment for arm swelling after breast cancer
This study tests whether low-level laser therapy can safely reduce swelling in one arm caused by breast-cancer treatment. It compares the laser to a look-alike inactive (placebo) treatment and checks changes over time.
