Ultrasound and microbubbles with radiation for breast cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to combine radiation therapy with ultrasound and tiny bubbles to treat breast cancer that has spread to the chest wall or is advanced. It aims to make radiation more effective and safer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have breast cancer that has been confirmed by biopsy.
- Your cancer is stage II, III, or IV (including cancer that has spread).
- You are already planning to get radiation therapy to your chest wall or breast.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new way to give radiation therapy using MRI imaging and ultrasound to make the radiation more targeted and potentially safer. If you have chest-wall or breast cancer and are already scheduled for radiation, this approach might offer a more precise treatment option.
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.
This study uses a special 3D ultrasound and light-based scan to see if breast cancer is shrinking during chemo or chemoradiation before surgery. It may help doctors tell sooner whether the treatment is working.
This trial tests a focused radiation treatment before surgery for early-stage breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative. The goal is to give precise radiation only to the tumor, with the hope of reducing side effects and improving outcomes.
This study uses special ultrasound imaging (and may use MRI results) to look for early signs of how locally advanced breast cancer responds to chemotherapy, with or without radiation. If the imaging changes early, it could help doctors adjust treatment sooner.
This trial tests a radiation plan called GammaPod to treat early breast cancer with precise targeting. It may help patients by delivering the treatment in a more focused way, while checking safety and tumor control in the smallest, well-defined cancers.
