Study on breast cancer patients with brain metastases
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at factors that affect survival in breast cancer patients whose cancer has spread to the brain. The goal is to learn more about what influences outcomes, which may help guide future treatment decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have been diagnosed with breast cancer confirmed by a biopsy
- Your breast cancer has spread to the brain, confirmed by a CT scan or MRI

This study looks at genetic material from spinal fluid to better understand breast cancer that has spread to the brain or its lining. It may help doctors find new ways to treat this type of cancer.
This trial tests whether regular brain MRI scans can help detect brain metastases early in patients with stage IV breast cancer who do not yet have any known brain metastases. The goal is to see if early detection improves outcomes.
This study tests whether regular brain scans (surveillance) help spot brain metastases early in people with HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Participation involves being randomly assigned to either routine brain scans or no extra scans to see which approach is better.
This trial uses an MRI scan to look for early signs of breast cancer spreading to the brain in people with certain aggressive breast cancer types (triple-negative or HER2-positive) that are stage IIb or III. The goal is to find and treat brain metastases earlier, before they cause symptoms.
This study looks at how breast cancer spreads to the brain in people who had surgery to remove brain tumors. It helps doctors understand why some women get brain metastases.
This study is for people with breast cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain or spinal cord (called leptomeningeal metastasis). Researchers want to understand how to treat this condition and offer care to those who qualify.
