Smarter scans for breast cancer survivors: could personalized imaging catch recurrences earlier?

NCT ID NCT07426510

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests whether using more sensitive imaging (like MRI or contrast mammograms) based on a woman's personal risk can detect breast cancer recurrences earlier than standard mammograms. It will involve 2,300 women who had breast-conserving surgery and are at higher risk of recurrence. The goal is to see if personalized surveillance reduces the number of cancers found between scheduled screenings.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Risk-stratified imaging surveillance (MRI or contrast-enhanced mammography)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to earlier detection of breast cancer recurrences, potentially improving survival and reducing the need for more aggressive treatments.

What could go wrong

This is a large but early-stage trial that hasn't started recruiting yet. The more sensitive imaging may also increase false alarms and unnecessary biopsies, and it's not yet proven to improve survival.
