Plano, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07100106RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of GDC-4198 alone or with giredestrant for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new treatment (GDC-4198) alone or with another drug (giredestrant) compared to a standard combination (abemaciclib and giredestrant) for people with advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has progressed after previous treatments.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03723928Recruiting
Blood test–guided monitoring for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This study checks whether specific blood “tumor marker” levels can help monitor how hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer responds to first-line therapy. It uses regular blood tests (and sometimes scans) to see if this marker-based monitoring is useful and reliable.
Bryan, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07705334RecruitingPhase 1
Study of SHY-ONC6 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SHY-ONC6 that targets and breaks down cancer cells. It's for people with advanced solid tumors that haven't responded to standard treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06324357RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zongertinib for HER2-positive cancers that have spread
This trial tests a new pill called zongertinib, alone or with other drugs, for people with HER2-positive cancers (like breast, stomach, or colorectal cancer) that have spread and are no longer responding to standard treatments. The goal is to find the best dose and see if it can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06551116Recruiting
Better HER2 testing for HER2-low breast cancer on Enhertu
This study looks at using a more detailed lab test to measure HER2 levels in people with HER2-low metastatic breast cancer who are starting or have just started treatment with Enhertu. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors better understand who might benefit from Enhertu.
Sugar Land, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06065748RecruitingPhase 3
New hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer after prior treatment
This trial tests a new oral hormone therapy, giredestrant, against a standard hormone therapy (fulvestrant) when both are given with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. It is for people with advanced ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has come back after initial hormone therapy, and who have not yet had other treatments for advanced disease.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06435429RecruitingPhase 3
Zanidatamab vs trastuzumab for HER2+ breast cancer

Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05305924RecruitingPhase 2
Fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER+, HER2− advanced breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding abemaciclib to fulvestrant can slow or shrink ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. It is mainly for people whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor and an aromatase inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07137871RecruitingPhase 1
Avasopasem for advanced HR+ breast cancer after CDK 4/6 inhibitor
This trial tests a drug called avasopasem for people with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread and gotten worse despite treatment with a CDK 4/6 inhibitor (ribociclib or abemaciclib) and hormonal therapy. It aims to see if adding avasopasem can help control the cancer.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05812807RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab versus monitoring after triple-negative breast cancer response
This trial checks whether giving pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) after surgery helps people with triple-negative breast cancer reduce the chance of the cancer coming back, compared with close monitoring only. It’s for patients who had no remaining invasive cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab.
Baytown, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06876714RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter vs Longer HER2 Therapy for Breast Cancer with Complete Response
This trial compares 6 months versus 12 months of HER2-targeted therapy for people with HER2+ breast cancer who had a complete response after chemo and trastuzumab. The goal is to see if a shorter treatment is just as effective.
Baytown, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05929768RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy without anthracyclines for early TNBC
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a shorter course of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy can work as well as standard treatment for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. It avoids anthracycline drugs and may help reduce exposure to those medicines if the shorter plan is effective and safe.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06982521RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drug combinations for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests two different combinations of medicines for people with a certain type of advanced breast cancer (HR-positive, HER2-negative) that has a specific gene change called PIK3CA. The goal is to see which combination is better at slowing down the cancer.

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.
