Perspectives in Advanced Breast Cancer: Innovative Treatment Approaches at the Hallwang Clinic

For many patients with advanced breast cancer, the road appears to come to an end. Often, no further treatment options are pursued once standard therapies have been exhausted. This is exactly where the Hallwang Clinic steps in—with a highly individualized, integrative treatment concept based on the latest scientific findings, offering new perspectives.
Patients with late-stage breast cancer often face a long and exhausting journey. Many have undergone several lines of intensive chemotherapy—usually without lasting success. Once the cancer has spread to other organs such as the lungs, liver, or bones, many healthcare systems focus solely on palliative care. The opportunity to actively combat the disease is frequently no longer pursued.
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with advanced breast cancer, talk to our specialized team. We are here for you.
A holistic approach—scientifically grounded, compassionately delivered
At the Hallwang Clinic, we regularly encounter patients whose medical histories reflect long, challenging battles with cancer. Nestled in the natural beauty of the Black Forest, these patients not only find peace, but also a place where state-of-the-art, innovative cancer medicine meets compassionate care.
Our philosophy: Every patient deserves a treatment plan tailored to their life circumstances, medical history, and the biological nature of their tumor—developed with the utmost care and based on the latest scientific research.
Our range of services includes:
- Cutting-edge diagnostics, such as PET/CT/MRI/MR-PET imaging, next-gen immune profiling, genomic analyses (NGS, amplifications, translocations), and TAA screening
- Patient-personalized immuno- and precision therapies, including targeted antibody therapies, immune priming, and NK cell therapies
- Interventional procedures, such as Cyberknife, HIFU, and nuclear medicine therapies
- Integrative medicine, including orthomolecular infusions, detox concepts, hyperthermia, and nutritional medicine
- Psychological support and psycho-oncological care
- Personalized care in a warm, family-like setting with a high staff-to-patient ratio
Individualized therapies—off-label when needed, but always evidence-based
Our medical team combines extensive clinical experience with strong scientific expertise, particularly in the field of immuno-oncology. Our treatment strategies are based on the most current international guidelines and are supplemented, when appropriate, by personalized approaches.
A key focus lies in the responsible use of off-label therapies: We use medications or procedures that may not yet be officially approved for a specific indication at the time of application—but whose use is supported by up-to-date scientific evidence and biomarker-based analyses.
In doing so, we have been able to offer many patients therapeutic options that were not accessible in their home countries due to regulatory constraints. Many of these early immunotherapy strategies are now officially approved.
When perspectives return
The impact of this approach is illustrated by the story of a patient from France with metastatic breast cancer. She writes:
“After years of chemotherapy without effect and new metastases in my lungs and mediastinum, I had no options left. I had lost faith in the few remaining treatment options available in France. Through the experiences of other French patients who had achieved excellent results at the Hallwang Clinic, I became aware of the clinic. After just 2.5 months of personalized treatment, my MRI showed no abnormalities at all—a complete metabolic remission. I couldn’t believe it. It’s magical. The second half of my life starts here.”
