Questions To Ask Your Health Care Provider
- Am I at high risk for breast cancer?
- What screening methods are best for me?
- Does your clinic use AI to help read mammograms?
Open Clinical Trials
The following are breast cancer screening or prevention studies enrolling people at high risk for breast cancer:
- The Risk Factor Analysis of Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer In Women with BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2 Mutations. This study seeks to improve researchers’ understanding of how hormonal, reproductive and lifestyle factors may be associated with cancer in high-risk people.
- NCT02620852: Women Informed to Screen Depending on Measures of Risk (WISDOM) study. The goal of this study is to determine whether breast cancer screening can be improved by personalizing each woman’s mammogram schedule compared to the current one-size-fits-all annual approach.
-
NCT04674306: Adjuvant Therapy With an Alpha-lactalbumin Vaccine in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer. This study is testing a new vaccine to lower the risk of breast cancer in high-risk women with an inherited mutation in BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2.
