Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05716893RecruitingPhase 2
Aerobic exercise program for people getting breast cancer treatment
This Phase 2 study tests whether a supervised aerobic (cardio) training program can improve health and exercise capacity for people receiving treatment for primary breast cancer. You may join if you currently do very little moderate-to-vigorous exercise and can safely complete a special treadmill test that measures breathing and heart response.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06638307RecruitingPhase 1
Study of new drug MEN2312 for advanced breast cancer with specific genetic changes
This trial tests a new drug, MEN2312, for people with advanced breast cancer that has specific genetic changes in PIK3CA, AKT1, or PTEN. It's for those who have already tried certain hormone therapies and a CDK4/6 inhibitor combination, and the cancer has continued to grow.
East Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06380751RecruitingPhase 3
New targeted therapy for BRCA/PALB2-mutated HR+ breast cancer
This trial tests a new combination of targeted therapies (saruparib plus camizestrant or hormone therapy) against standard treatments for people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer. It may be a good option if you have a BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 gene mutation and have not yet had treatment for your advanced disease.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06401421Recruiting
Blood test for tumor DNA after breast cancer chemo
This study tests a new blood test to see if it can find tiny bits of tumor DNA after chemotherapy. If you have a larger or higher-risk breast cancer and are getting chemotherapy before surgery, you may join. The test could help doctors know if your cancer is gone or if more treatment is needed.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06728579RecruitingPhase 2
Group therapy for joint pain in breast cancer survivors
This study tests two supportive group programs—one using mindfulness skills, the other providing supportive talk therapy—to help breast cancer survivors manage joint pain caused by hormone-blocking pills. If you have ongoing joint pain and are taking an aromatase inhibitor, you may be able to join a free, video-based group.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06778863RecruitingPhase 1
A study of CLSP-1025 for adults with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CLSP-1025 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the p53 gene (R175H). The drug targets this change to help fight the cancer.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07145255RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of MBRC-201 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, MBRC-201, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to find the best dose and see if it helps shrink tumors or slow their growth.
East Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05130801RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MRI and pHLIP dye during breast surgery to map tumors
This trial tests whether a special MRI and an injected light-activated dye (pHLIP® ICG) can help doctors see and target breast cancer during surgery. You may be offered this approach around the time of breast-conserving surgery, to improve how well the tumor area is identified.
Montvale, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04852887RecruitingPhase 3
Testing shorter breast radiation after low-risk hormone breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial studies whether “less intense” radiation can work as well as standard radiation for certain early-stage hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancers that have a low Oncotype DX score. It may help reduce treatment burden while keeping cancer control strong.

What taking part in a metastatic breast cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
