Recruiting studies
- NCT03968406RecruitingPhase 1
Talazoparib plus radiation for recurrent gynecologic cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether the cancer drug talazoparib, combined with radiation, can better control recurrent gynecologic cancers in the pelvis/abdomen. It focuses on patients whose cancer has come back locally enough that radiation can be given, while other disease is not rapidly worsening.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03863457RecruitingPhase 1
PET/CT scan test for breast cancer using a new tracer
This Phase 1 study tests a new PET/CT imaging tracer to see how well it can detect breast cancer spots in the body. It may help doctors learn where breast cancer is and how imaging could work better in the future.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03769415Recruiting
Using tumor gene data to improve treatment in metastatic breast cancer
This trial studies your tumor’s gene activity and breast cancer subtype to help guide treatment choices. It mainly looks at whether analyzing “RNA expression” and tumor subtype can improve how therapy is optimized during metastatic breast cancer care.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT03808337RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT radiation plus standard treatment for spread cancer
This trial looks at adding a focused radiation treatment called SBRT to standard care for cancers that have spread to a limited number of spots. It aims to control those spread-out tumors while still using the usual cancer treatment plan.
San Carlos, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03606967RecruitingPhase 2
Individualized vaccine added to standard treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding a personalized cancer vaccine to durvalumab (an immunotherapy), tremelimumab (another immunotherapy), and chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. It may help your immune system recognize your specific tumor features.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03177902Recruiting
Monitoring thyroid health during breast cancer chemotherapy
This study checks whether chemotherapy for breast cancer affects thyroid function. It follows patients during treatment to see if thyroid problems develop.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–85 - NCT02926690RecruitingPhase 1
MELK inhibitor safety study for advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how safe a drug called an MELK inhibitor is in people with advanced breast cancer that has spread or cannot be removed with surgery. If you qualify, the study is focused on side effects and includes a special group for triple-negative breast cancer.
Norwalk, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT02830724RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T therapy using blood immune cells for CD70 cancers
This trial tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) built from your own blood lymphocytes. It targets cancers that show a marker called CD70, aiming to slow or stop the cancer when other treatments didn’t work.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT02732171Recruiting
Blood and bone marrow tests to track breast cancer return
This trial checks whether specific “surveillance” markers (measured from blood and bone marrow) can help predict if breast cancer comes back after standard treatments. It may help doctors monitor you more accurately and earlier if recurrence risk is high.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02906943Recruiting
Testing cancer tissue to guide targeted treatment choices
This trial studies advanced solid tumors by using stored tumor samples to look for molecular clues. The goal is to help doctors better choose cancer treatments that may work for your specific tumor.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT02945579Recruiting
Testing skipping breast surgery or radiation for top responders
This trial studies whether some people with early-stage breast cancer who respond extremely well to hormone/chemo/targeted treatment can safely skip breast surgery and/or radiation. It aims to reduce side effects without increasing cancer risk in carefully selected patients.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 30 years+ - NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Greenwood Village, ColoradoAges 19–110 - NCT01042379RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive drug trial for newly diagnosed breast cancer
This study tests personalized, changing treatment plans (given before surgery) to find better options for your specific breast tumor. You may be asked for extra breast-tissue testing to help match you with the most suitable study drug(s).
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT00477100Recruiting
Breast cancer tissue and data registry for research
This trial helps create a research “tissue registry” by collecting breast cancer tissue samples and medical information. It may help doctors better understand inflammatory or invasive breast cancer and improve future studies.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05334459Recruiting
Radiation and medicines after surgery for new metastatic breast cancer
This trial looks at giving radiation and anti-cancer medicines after surgery to treat newly diagnosed (de novo) metastatic breast cancer. It may help patients by improving local control of the breast area while also treating cancer throughout the body.
AnkaraAges 18–80 - NCT04472845Recruiting
Shorter or longer breast radiation after surgery for high-risk cancer
This trial compares two schedules of radiation after breast surgery in people with high-risk, node-positive breast cancer. The goal is to see whether giving radiation in 1 week or 2 weeks works well and is safe after standard treatments.
ChandigarhAges 18 years+ - NCT06073418Recruiting
Diet, nutrition, and physical activity in early breast cancer
This study looks at the eating habits, nutrition knowledge, and physical activity of women with early-stage breast cancer. It aims to understand how these factors relate to your health and recovery after surgery.
Aviano, PordononeAges 18 years+ - NCT05505357Recruiting
Skip breast surgery after excellent MRI response
This trial tests whether some women with HER2-positive breast cancer can safely avoid breast surgery if their tumor nearly disappears after chemotherapy. It uses MRI and biopsy results to find people most likely to have no remaining cancer (pCR).
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT06404697RecruitingPhase 2
Extra radiation to lymph nodes above collarbone for high-risk breast cancer
This trial tests giving a focused, higher dose of radiation to the lymph nodes above the collarbone after breast cancer treatment. It is for patients whose cancer did not fully disappear from those nodes after pre-surgery chemotherapy, to see if extra radiation can help prevent recurrence.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06615466Recruiting
Short radiation course for early stage breast cancer
This trial tests a shorter, more intense radiation schedule for women with early stage breast cancer after lumpectomy. It aims to provide effective treatment with fewer visits, which may be more convenient for patients.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 45–74 - NCT07706556Recruiting
Remote activity program for breast cancer survivors
This trial tests a new program to help breast cancer survivors become more active. The program is delivered remotely using a smartphone app, and it adjusts based on your progress. It may be a good fit if you finished treatment less than 5 years ago and are not very active yet.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT07655934Recruiting
Lifestyle and energy in breast cancer survivors
This study looks at how lifestyle and energy levels affect women recently diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer. It may help researchers understand the body's changes during treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07587957Recruiting
Exercise and Brain Stimulation for Breast Cancer Survivors
This study tests whether combining exercise with a noninvasive brain-stimulation technique (tiny electrical pulses on the scalp) can help improve thinking and memory problems that some breast cancer survivors experience after treatment. Researchers want to see if this combination is practical and safe to use.
