NCT ID NCT07527741
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 03, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study looks at how the location of treatment affects whether people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer stick to their therapy plan. Researchers will compare patients who have to travel far for treatment with those who don't. The goal is to see if making treatment more local helps people complete their full course of care.
