Environmental exposures and breast cancer risk study
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at how environmental exposures might affect breast cancer risk. It includes women at average risk, high risk, or those diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50, as well as healthcare providers.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman age 18 or older.
- You are either at average risk, high risk, or were diagnosed with breast cancer before turning 50.
- You speak English or Spanish.
- You are willing to wear a wristband for one week (for Aim 3) and allow review of your medical records.
- Healthcare providers at City of Hope can also take part in a separate part of the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how well women with a moderate risk of breast cancer follow their screening recommendations (like yearly MRI or mammogram). It may help women who have certain genetic variants or a higher calculated risk stay on top of their breast health.
This study looks at tissue, imaging, and genetic information from women who had a non-cancerous breast biopsy to better understand breast cancer risk. It may help improve how we predict and prevent breast cancer in the future.
This study asks breast cancer patients about their skin reactions during radiation therapy. By sharing your experience, you can help doctors better understand and manage these side effects.
This study looks at whether a person’s diet that tends to cause more body inflammation is linked to future breast cancer risk. It may help researchers understand how eating patterns could affect risk in people already considered high-risk.
This study looks for signs in blood samples and imaging that may help estimate breast cancer risk earlier. You would do a mammogram and give blood at the start and then again at yearly follow-up visits.
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.
