White button mushroom supplement for inflammation in high-risk breast cancer
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a white button mushroom powder supplement can lower inflammation in postmenopausal women who have a high risk of breast cancer. If it helps, it could improve early prevention strategies for people at higher risk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are postmenopausal (no periods for 12+ months, or you’ve had ovaries removed, or a certain hormone level after hysterectomy).
- Your body weight is in the obese range (BMI 30 or higher; BMI 25+ for Asian participants).
- Your breast cancer risk is high—based on family history, genetic mutation, past biopsy results, risk score, or prior early breast cancer (in certain situations).
- You can have recent breast imaging (a mammogram within the last 12 months) that does not look suspicious for cancer (with limited exceptions if a biopsy was negative).
- You can take and swallow pills, and you’re willing to have extra blood drawn about 8–10 teaspoons at start and 3 months later.

This study tests whether low-dose tamoxifen (a breast cancer prevention drug) or omega-3 supplements can lower breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women who are overweight and have a higher chance of getting the disease. The study lasts about 6 months and involves blood draws and a breast fluid test to see how the treatment affects breast cells.
This study looks at whether a person’s diet that tends to cause more body inflammation is linked to future breast cancer risk. It may help researchers understand how eating patterns could affect risk in people already considered high-risk.
This study looks at how breast cancer patients use herbs and supplements during treatment and how these might affect their care. By answering one survey, you can help doctors learn more about personalized approaches for diverse populations.
This trial tests whether taking a turkey tail mushroom supplement before breast cancer surgery can help the immune system fight the cancer. It is for post-menopausal women with a common type of breast cancer (ER-positive, HER2-negative) that is growing at a moderate or faster rate (Ki-67 score of 10% or more).
This trial tests whether a reishi mushroom extract can help reduce fatigue and joint or muscle pain in people with breast cancer who are taking aromatase inhibitors. If you have these symptoms, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether taking a probiotic supplement affects the bacteria and fungi in your gut, which may be linked to your breast cancer. You'll take a daily probiotic and have your diet and activity stay the same, to see if it helps your body respond to treatment.
