New study aims to stop breast cancer arm swelling before it starts
NCT ID NCT03292198
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two ways to treat early-stage lymphedema (arm swelling) in women who have had breast cancer surgery. It uses a special device to detect fluid buildup before swelling is visible. About 267 women will be monitored for three years after surgery. If early swelling is found, they will receive one of two treatments to see which works better to reverse the condition.
