Recruiting studies
- NCT06796166Recruiting

3D printed mesh for breast reconstruction after mastectomy
This trial tests a new 3D printed biodegradable mesh used during breast reconstruction right after a mastectomy for breast cancer. It aims to see how well the mesh works for cosmetic results and safety.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–70 - NCT07352137Enrolling by invitation
Endoscopic Nipple-Sparing Mastectomy with Fat Grafting for Breast Reconstruction
This trial tests a new way to remove the breast through a small cut in the armpit (endoscopic nipple-sparing mastectomy) and immediately rebuild the breast using your own fat. It's for women with early-stage breast cancer who want to keep their nipple and have reconstruction at the same time.
Guanzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07292246Recruiting
HandX-assisted endoscopic mastectomy study for breast cancer
This trial tests a new, less invasive way to remove breast tissue using a small camera (endoscope) with a device called HandX. It's for women who need a mastectomy for early-stage breast cancer, DCIS, or to reduce high risk, and aims to see if it's safe and works well.
Glyfada, AtticaAges 18 years+ - NCT07234461Recruiting
Sexual well-being after mastectomy and reconstruction
This study looks at how mastectomy and breast reconstruction affect a woman's sexual well-being. If you are having a mastectomy for breast cancer or a preventive mastectomy because you are at high risk, you may be able to join.
Bari, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06910644Recruiting
Pain relief after mastectomy: dexmedetomidine vs lidocaine
This trial tests whether adding dexmedetomidine or lidocaine to anesthesia during mastectomy helps reduce long-term pain after surgery. It's for women with breast cancer undergoing mastectomy with lymph node removal.
CairoAges 18–75 - NCT02992574Recruiting
Radiation after mastectomy for certain node-negative breast cancers
This trial studies whether giving radiotherapy after a mastectomy helps prevent breast cancer coming back in women whose lymph nodes are not involved (or only very tiny spread). It may help reduce recurrence risk, especially for patients with higher-risk features despite node-negative early cancer.
Chandigarh, ChandigarhAges 18–80 - NCT06947330RecruitingPhase 3
Pain relief after mastectomy: comparing two nerve blocks
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after breast removal surgery. Both are injections near chest muscles that can help reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers.
Cairo, WailiAges 21–65 - NCT06884852Recruiting
Preventing pain after mastectomy: nerve block vs. epidural
This study compares two methods to prevent long-term pain after breast cancer surgery: a nerve block using ultrasound guidance or an epidural. The goal is to see which helps women feel less pain months after their mastectomy.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07002944Recruiting
Testing nerve treatment for shoulder pain after mastectomy
This study compares two types of pulsed radiofrequency (a minimally invasive treatment using radio waves) to see which better relieves shoulder pain in women who have had a mastectomy. It's for women who still have pain despite taking a high dose of tramadol.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07002983Recruiting
Shoulder exercises to help after mastectomy
This study is testing whether special exercises that retrain how you control your shoulder muscles can help reduce pain and improve movement after mastectomy. It is for women who had breast cancer surgery in the last few months and are now having shoulder problems.
GizaAges 40–55 - NCT06574022RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two pain blocks for mastectomy recovery
This trial compares two types of pain blocks (PECS-II and pectoral blocks) to see which works better after mastectomy. The goal is to improve pain control and recovery for patients with breast cancer or high risk.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06569706Recruiting
Mastectomy with nipple preservation using endoscopy
This study tests a less invasive mastectomy for people with breast cancer. The surgery uses a small camera (endoscope) to remove breast tissue while keeping the nipple, and reconstruction is done at the same time.
MontpellierAges 20–75 - NCT06382272Recruiting
Bionic breast project to reduce chronic pain after mastectomy
This study tests a new device (a neuroprosthesis) placed during breast reconstruction to see if it can reduce long-term pain after a mastectomy. If you are having both breasts removed and plan to get tissue expander reconstruction, you may be able to join.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06263907Recruiting
Nerve block to prevent depression after mastectomy
This study tests whether a nerve block near the neck (stellate ganglion block) can help prevent depression after mastectomy for breast cancer. It is for women who are generally healthy and have no history of mood disorders.
Al MansurahAges 21–65 - NCT06153836RecruitingPhase 2
Restoring nipple sensation after mastectomy
This trial is testing a surgical technique to reconnect nerves in the nipple and areola after a mastectomy, aiming to restore feeling. It is for women with breast cancer who are having a nipple-sparing mastectomy with implant reconstruction.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06092892RecruitingPhase 2
Upfront targeted lymph node removal for early breast cancer
This trial is for women age 45 and older with early ER-positive breast cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes under the arm. It tests a surgery approach where the main tumor and only a few key lymph nodes (rather than many) are removed.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 45 years+ - NCT06013514Recruiting
Study of Nagor Perle breast implants for reconstruction or cosmetic surgery
This study is following people who got Nagor Perle breast implants to see how they perform over time. It includes women getting implants for breast reconstruction, cosmetic augmentation, or revision surgery.
ManchesterAges 18–65 - NCT05146778Recruiting
Opioid-free anesthesia to reduce long-term post-mastectomy pain
This study tests whether a pain-control approach without opioids (strong pain medicines) can lower persistent pain after mastectomy. It may help people avoid long-term pain and opioid side effects.
SeoulAges 19–80 - NCT05444361Enrolling by invitation
Ultrasound freezing treatment for pain after mastectomy
This trial tests a “freezing” nerve procedure guided by ultrasound to help reduce pain after mastectomy. It aims to lessen postoperative pain by temporarily calming specific nerves involved in chest wall sensation.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 117 recruiting mastectomy studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a mastectomy trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a mastectomy trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
