NCT ID NCT05970107
First seen Feb 20, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This study tests if a surgical technique called lymphaticovenous bypass (LVB) can prevent lymphedema (arm swelling) in breast cancer patients who need lymph node removal. About 400 patients with node-positive breast cancer will be randomly assigned to receive standard lymph node removal with or without LVB. The goal is to see if LVB reduces the rate of lymphedema, a common and debilitating side effect.
