ASCO’s Clinical Trials Access and Participation Task Force
The ASCO Clinical Trials Access and Participation Task Force studies optimal dosing and alternate dosing strategies for treatments for patients with MBC. As a member of PCDI (Patient Centered Dosing Initiative), this research seeks to discover optimal dosing for patients, to help determine efficacy with fewer treatment-related side effects, and to improve quality of life for patients.

Learn MoreCLINICAL TRIALS
Learn why clinical trials and patient participation is so important to new treatments being available when patients experience a progression.
Learn MoreClinical Trial Education Initiative
Clinical trials are key to making progress against breast cancer. People who join clinical trials receive high-quality care, and at the same time are contributing to research that could help themselves or others. Komen wants to help people with breast cancer find—and participate in—clinical trials, including trials supported by Komen.
Learn MoreClinical Trial Matching Service
SHARE has teamed up with EmergingMed to offer breast cancer patients a free, confidential, personalized Clinical Trial Matching service. You can customize your searches based on a range of criteria that includes the specific breast cancer type, stage, treatment history and place where you can enroll. Clinical Trial Specialists are available to guide you through your confidential search.
Learn MoreClinical Trials Education
A clinical trial is a research study that “prospectively assigns human participants or groups of humans to one or more health-related interventions to evaluate the effects on health outcomes.” Practically speaking, they are research studies that find and test new treatments or procedures. Without clinical trials, we would not have the medical and scientific advances that we have today.
Learn MoreClinical Trials Education
In 2015, the Cancer Support Community began an initiative to bring fresh ideas, new language, and new approaches to increasing participation in cancer clinical trials. We aim to provide a range of resources that speak to a diverse population of cancer patients, caregivers, and their healthcare team in a changing environment.
Learn MoreClinical Trials Education
Clinical trials are carefully designed research studies that depend on human volunteers to improve medical care over time, and virtually every treatment we have today for cancer (and other diseases) was first tested in clinical trials — which is why it's so important for people to participate.
Learn MoreClinical Trials for MBC
Clinical trials are controlled, scientific studies that test the safety and effectiveness of specific therapeutic interventions. If offered, understand the purpose and design of a trial, what it is required of you and what your rights are. Our Metastatic Navigator has more information.

Learn MoreInformation on Clinical Trials
Substantive research is needed to accelerate understanding of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), including metastatic ILC. This distinct breast cancer subtype represents about 15% of all breast cancers. Increased research could help improve detection, treatment, prevention of metastasis, and ultimately, develop a cure for people with ILC.

I am designing a pragmatic randomized phase 3 clinical trial to determine the best strategy to determine the first-line treatment plan when the receptor status of a relapsed metastatic breast cancer tumor is discordant with the original primary tumor. Currently, there is no data to inform this decision. Observational data suggests this decision could impact 1-4 years of median life expectancy.
