Can pressurized oxygen stop breast cancer lung spread?
NCT ID NCT07514728
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This small study is testing whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can help control the growth of breast cancer that has spread to the lungs. Ten women with advanced breast cancer and lung metastases will receive standard cancer treatment plus HBOT sessions. The goal is to see if the added oxygen therapy can shrink or stabilize lung tumors.
