Breast cancer, chemical exposure, and body signals study
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at whether certain chemicals in the environment might be linked to breast cancer. Researchers will test tissue and blood samples to find biological clues (biomarkers) related to this exposure. If you are scheduled for breast lesion removal, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are female.
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove a breast lesion (a lump or abnormal area).
- You have been informed about the study by your surgeon and signed a consent form.
- You are not under legal guardianship or custody, and you have health insurance.

This study looks at how chemicals in the environment (called endocrine disruptors) might affect the natural bacteria in your gut and whether that could play a role in colorectal cancer. If you are having a colonoscopy (endoscopy), you may be able to participate.
This study looks at how your metabolism (things like blood sugar and cholesterol) might be linked to tumor genes and growth in people with breast cancer. The goal is to find new ways to treat the disease based on your metabolic profile. You may be eligible if you have locally advanced breast cancer (Stage II–III) and are willing to share your medical records.
This study looks at breast cancer samples taken by biopsy to see how tissue “molecular markers” relate to how you respond to therapy and how the cancer behaves. It may help researchers better match future treatments to the biology of your tumor.
This study looks at tiny particles released by cells (called extracellular vesicles) in people with breast cancer. It may help researchers better understand breast cancer and how it behaves, which could improve future testing or treatments.
This study looks at proteins and imaging patterns (from tissue, fluid near the tumor, and blood) to better understand breast cancer markers. It may help researchers find clues that doctors can use to evaluate breast nodules and newly diagnosed invasive breast cancer.
This trial looks at how breast cancer works in the body, using new “mechanics” measurements to better guide treatment. It may be most helpful if you have (or may have) breast cancer and can take part in study visits and procedures.
