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.
This trial studies treatments given before surgery for invasive breast cancer, aiming to shrink the tumor so surgery can be done more effectively. It may help some people need breast-conserving surgery or improve the chance of complete cancer removal.
This trial tests adding radiation therapy to chemotherapy before surgery for people with locally advanced breast cancer that did not shrink enough with chemo alone. It may help improve outcomes for those with luminal (HER2-negative) or triple-negative types.
This trial tests if giving hormone-blocking pills before surgery can help guide which treatments you need after surgery. It is for premenopausal women with early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer.
This trial looks at different drug combinations given before surgery to shrink breast tumors. The goal is to find which treatments work best for different types of breast cancer, such as triple-negative, HER2-positive, or hormone-receptor-positive. If you are a woman scheduled for neoadjuvant therapy (treatment before surgery) and have not had previous cancer treatment, this study may be for you.
This study looks at how breast cancer changes while you are receiving chemotherapy or targeted therapy before surgery. The goal is to better understand which treatments work best for different types of breast cancer.
