Comparing breast cancer treatments before surgery
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Have a tumor that can be biopsied or surgically removed to get a sample
- Agree to the specific drug regimen for your breast cancer subtype (e.g., triple-negative or HER2-positive types)

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 compares two different chemotherapy combinations given before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy) for people with triple-negative breast cancer. It looks to see which drug combination works better to control the cancer before and around the time of the operation.
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 two different combinations of chemotherapy and targeted therapy given before surgery for HER2-positive breast cancer. The goal is to see which combination works better at shrinking the tumor.
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.
This trial tests whether a customized treatment plan given before surgery can improve outcomes for women with early-stage HR-positive, HER2-positive breast cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and make surgery more effective.
