This study reviews patients with early breast cancer that has spread to a small number of lymph nodes. It looks at how well a special biopsy removes those nodes during surgery, to help guide future care.
BurnleyAges 18 years+ - NCT07391774RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy with or without chemo for early breast cancer
This trial tests whether skipping chemotherapy and using only hormone therapy with a drug called ribociclib works as well as chemotherapy followed by hormone therapy with ribociclib for certain early breast cancers that have a low risk of coming back.
Jonesboro, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT04993014RecruitingPhase 2
De-escalating treatment after HER2-positive breast cancer responds
This study looks at whether some people with HER2-positive breast cancer can safely receive less (de-escalated) treatment after they finish chemotherapy plus HER2-targeted drugs before surgery. It specifically focuses on people whose cancer shows a complete response on the surgery pathology report.
São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT02535221RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone treatment vs chemotherapy before breast surgery
This Phase 3 trial compares hormone-based treatment versus chemotherapy given before surgery in people who are premenopausal and have hormone-receptor positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. It looks to see which approach works better to control the cancer before the breast operation.
BeijingAges 35–55 - NCT05292742RecruitingPhase 2
Continue targeted breast cancer therapy or switch to a new combo
This Phase 2 study compares two treatment plans after breast surgery when cancer did not fully disappear before surgery. It tests whether adding trastuzumab, pyrotinib, and capecitabine works better than continuing the original targeted therapy.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT05420454RecruitingPhase 4
Neoadjuvant treatment for breast cancer before surgery
This trial tests a treatment given before breast surgery to shrink breast cancer and improve outcomes based on your tumor type. Your eligibility depends on tumor size/stage, hormone and HER2 markers, and overall health checks.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05420467RecruitingPhase 4
Trial of add-on breast cancer treatment after surgery
This Phase 4 study tests an additional (adjuvant) treatment for breast cancer after surgery and standard follow-up care. It may help lower the chance the cancer comes back, but you must match specific tumor and body-chemistry requirements to join.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05305092Recruiting
Study of memory and thinking in early breast cancer
This study checks how breast cancer affects memory and thinking before other treatments start. It may help doctors better understand cognitive changes and who is most at risk.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges Any age - NCT03150576RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Before-surgery treatment for triple-negative or BRCA breast cancer
This trial tests an “at-the-source” medicine given before surgery to shrink triple-negative and/or BRCA-related breast cancer. It may help doctors see whether it improves tumor response and reduces cancer spread at surgery time.
Cambridge, CambridgeshireAges 16–70 - NCT05462457Recruiting
Tests adding a targeted approach for breast cancer with many involved nodes
This trial studies a treatment plan for early breast cancer that involves at least three suspicious lymph nodes on the ultrasound/imaging. It looks at whether a targeted technique—done before surgery with chemotherapy—can improve or guide care when surgery will remove the lymph nodes.
EssenAges 18 years+ - NCT05804916RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Tracking-guided radiation for left breast after surgery
This trial tests a radiation planning and monitoring approach that uses surface tracking and breathing control to deliver large-area radiation more accurately for left breast cancer. It may help improve how consistently treatment is delivered while accounting for chest movement.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05058183Recruiting
Testing shorter chemotherapy for early HER2 or triple‑negative breast cancer
This study looks at whether some people with stage 1 HER2-positive or “triple-negative” breast cancer may safely need less (de-escalated) chemotherapy after surgery. The goal is to keep the cancer risk low while reducing treatment intensity, using special blood testing over time.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05430399RecruitingPhase 3
Utidelone vs docetaxel for HER2-negative breast cancer
This trial compares utidelone with docetaxel in people with HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer for controlling the cancer and helping patients live longer.
Guangzhou, GangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06000917RecruitingPhase 2
Study of combination therapy before surgery for ER+/HER2+ breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapies and chemotherapy given before surgery for women with a specific type of breast cancer that is both ER-positive and HER2-positive. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06028724Recruiting
Looking for cancer mutations using a blood test
This study uses a blood test (liquid biopsy) to find genetic changes in advanced solid tumors. It may help doctors choose the right treatment and monitor how well it works over time.
Aviano, PordononeAges 18 years+ - NCT06035016Recruiting
Pyrotinib and capecitabine after surgery for HER2+ breast cancer
This study tests whether taking pyrotinib (a daily pill) with capecitabine (another pill) after breast cancer surgery can help prevent HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer from coming back. It is for women who have already had their cancer removed and meet certain risk criteria.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04687956Recruiting
Preventing arm swelling after breast cancer lymph node surgery
This study looks at ways to prevent arm swelling (lymphedema) related to breast cancer after surgery to remove lymph nodes. It may help people who are getting axillary lymph node dissection lower the chance of long-term swelling.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06001086RecruitingPhase 2
Disitamab Vedotin plus Pyrotinib for HER2-positive early breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (Disitamab Vedotin and Pyrotinib) for people with HER2-positive early breast cancer. It aims to see if this treatment can improve outcomes before standard therapy.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT04050228Recruiting
Ultrasound test to tailor chemotherapy for breast cancer
This trial tests whether a special ultrasound measurement can help doctors choose the right chemotherapy plan during treatment for breast cancer. It may help avoid under- or over-treatment by adjusting care based on the ultrasound results.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07856225Recruiting
Breast cancer outcomes by tumor type
This study looks at how different types of breast cancer respond to treatment. It reviews medical records of patients treated at a specific hospital to understand outcomes better.
Bogotá, Bogota D.C.Ages 18 years+ - NCT05159193RecruitingPhase 3
Pre-surgery chemotherapy and antibodies for HER2 breast cancer
This phase 3 trial compares two pre-surgery treatment plans for people with HER2-positive invasive breast cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes. It aims to see which plan works better to shrink the tumor before surgery and improve outcomes.
Guandong, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06217185RecruitingPhase 4
Pyrotinib and trastuzumab with chemo for HER2+ advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted medicines (pyrotinib and trastuzumab) with chemotherapy to treat HER2-positive advanced breast cancer that has returned or spread after stopping trastuzumab.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18–70 - NCT06281145Recruiting
Stress reduction for breast or colon cancer patients
This study tests a stress-reducing program for people with breast or colon cancer. It uses a technique called heart rate variability biofeedback to help you manage stress during treatment.
BratislavaAges 18 years+ - NCT07859046Enrolling by invitation
Imaging test to guide treatment for ER-positive breast cancer
This trial uses a special imaging scan called 18F-FES PET/CT to help doctors plan treatment and check how well it works for breast cancer that is ER-positive (meaning the cancer cells grow in response to estrogen). It may help improve treatment choices and monitoring.
