BRCA2-related cancer predisposition

This phase 1 trial tests whether adding the experimental antibody axatilimab to the standard drug olaparib is safe and tolerable for people with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread and is linked to BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 gene changes. Researchers will enroll about 20 part…

This early-stage trial is testing whether combining two drugs—niraparib and irinotecan—can safely treat advanced solid tumors that have mutations in DNA repair genes like BRCA. The study will enroll 24 adults with various cancers, including breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and others…

This early-stage trial is testing a new daily oral medication called ETX-19477 in about 120 adults with advanced solid tumors, including breast, ovarian, prostate, and other cancers. The drug blocks a protein called PARG to interfere with cancer cells' ability to repair themselve…

This early-stage trial is testing a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (melphalan and BCNU) plus vitamins B12b and C, followed by an infusion of the patient's own stem cells. The goal is to see if this approach is safe for people with metastatic pancreatic or breast cancer, es…

This study tests whether adding elacestrant to the standard drug olaparib can help people with a certain type of advanced breast cancer (HR-positive, HER2-negative) that has a BRCA gene mutation. About 176 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the combination o…

This study is for women with BRCA1, BRCA2, or other gene mutations that greatly raise ovarian cancer risk. Instead of removing both ovaries and fallopian tubes at once, researchers are testing whether removing just the tubes first and delaying ovary removal is equally safe. The g…

This study tests a 4-week online cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) program for women with BRCA1/2 mutations who have finished cancer treatment and still worry a lot about cancer coming back. Researchers will compare those who get therapy right away to those on a waitlist, measur…

This study looks at two new approaches to cancer genetic counseling. The first helps doctors reach out to family members who may have inherited a cancer-related gene change, making it easier for them to get tested. The second uses an online portal to keep patients and their docto…

This pilot study tests whether an educational video can help women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations make more informed decisions about hormone replacement therapy after having their ovaries and fallopian tubes removed to lower cancer risk. Fifty premenopausal women scheduled for thi…

This study is collecting health information from 10,000 women in Italy who carry BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutations, which raise the risk of certain cancers. Researchers aim to better understand where these mutations are most common and how to improve care. Participants simply provide…

This study aims to create a large collection of blood samples from 2,500 people with or at high risk for cancer. Researchers will use these samples to study liquid biopsies, which are blood tests that may help detect cancer, track treatment response, and spot recurrence. Particip…
