Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether injecting the anesthetic levobupivacaine around the tumor and nearby nerves during breast cancer surgery can reduce the risk of the cancer returning. The study will include 760 women with triple-negative breast cancer who have had chemotherapy and are eligible for lumpectomy. Researchers will track recurrence and survival for two years after surgery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
levobupivacaine
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, low-cost way to lower the risk of breast cancer returning after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a phase 2 trial, so it's still early. The benefit seen in lab studies may not translate to people, and the drug's effect on recurrence is unproven.
