-
Investigating Elacestrant for treating breast cancer that has spread to bones
This study is looking at how a new treatment called Elacestrant works for advanced breast cancer that has spread to the bones, and it’s for patients who might want to try a new way to fight this tough condition.
-
Improving treatment for brain and bone metastases in breast cancer
