Clinical Trials and Studies

ILC is understudied and poorly understood, and requires substantive measures to accelerate research.

Research in the lab will help to better understand the biology of ILC that can lead to prevention and targeted therapies.
Clinical trials that are ILC specific or enriched with ILC patients can lead to refined screening, treatments and follow-up care for patients.

Patients who are in cancer treatment, have undergone treatment or are living with lobular breast cancer can help advance our understanding of the disease by participating in clinical trials and research studies. Trials and studies that specifically include lobular breast cancer are hi-lighted below. Patients with lobular breast cancer can participate in many clinical trials, even if those trials are not specifically studying ILC. Find trials at at BreastCancerTrials.org or Clinicaltrials.gov.
