High-detail ultrasound for tracking breast cancer response to chemotherapy
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special high-detail ultrasound can better show how breast cancer responds to chemotherapy given before surgery. It may help doctors tailor treatment and improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Women aged 18 to 75 years old
- Diagnosed with invasive breast cancer (confirmed by biopsy)
- Planned to receive standard chemotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant chemotherapy)
- No prior treatment for this breast cancer (such as surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or targeted therapy)
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding
- No severe heart, liver, kidney, or mental health problems that would interfere with the study

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 study uses advanced 3D ultrasound and spectroscopy to see how well breast cancer responds to chemotherapy given before surgery. It may help doctors know early if the treatment is working.
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 light-based imaging scan to learn more about breast masses and how tumors may respond to chemotherapy before surgery. The scan is meant to help doctors better characterize tumors and potentially track treatment response.
This study uses ultrasound to monitor a small clip placed in a lymph node affected by breast cancer to see how well it responds to chemotherapy before surgery. It might help predict if the cancer is gone from the lymph nodes without needing extra surgery.
This study looks at how breast tissue changes during chemotherapy given before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy). It may help doctors better understand treatment effects by taking special breast measurements.
