Nerve block for breast cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Pain, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a nerve block (called SPSIP) given during breast cancer surgery to see if it reduces inflammation and affects a protein called TLR4, which may help with pain and recovery. If you're having breast cancer surgery, this might help you heal better with less discomfort.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a woman between 18 and 85 years old.
- You must be scheduled for breast cancer surgery with general anesthesia.
- You must be in generally good health (categories I-III on the ASA scale, meaning mild to moderate health conditions are okay).
- You cannot have allergies to the local anesthetic used in the study.
- You cannot have bleeding problems or be taking blood-thinners that prevent a nerve block.
- You cannot have an active infection at the injection site, chronic pain, or regular opioid use.

This trial tests a special numbing technique (called a serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block) to help reduce pain after mastectomy surgery. The goal is to see if this nerve block reduces the need for pain medications after your procedure.
This study compares two different types of nerve blocks (injections of numbing medicine) to see which works better for pain relief after breast removal surgery. If you are having a mastectomy, this trial might help reduce your pain after the operation.
This trial compares two nerve-block techniques (SPSIP and ESPB) to see which one provides better pain relief after breast cancer surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and improve recovery after a modified radical mastectomy.
This study compares two different nerve block techniques to see which one provides better pain relief after breast cancer surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two blocks, and their pain levels will be measured.
This study tests a new numbing injection (called a nerve block) placed near the ribs to reduce pain after breast cancer surgery. The goal is to see if this block gives better pain relief than usual care.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after breast cancer surgery. The goal is to improve comfort and reduce the need for strong painkillers.
