Filter by:This is an interventional, open-label, non comparative phase 2 trial enrolling patients with nonpalpable breast cancer
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin combined with Toripalimab sequential chemotherapy as in patients with HR-positive, HER2-low breast cancer
This study looks into how a common breast cancer treatment, paclitaxel, can sometimes cause severe side effects that make it hard for patients to continue treatment. These side effects can significantly affect a patient's quality of life and even impact their recovery and overall health costs. What's interesting about this research is that it considers how a patient's lifestyle, specifically their physical activity levels and body makeup (like how much muscle and fat they have), might influence these side effects. The researchers are doing a detailed study with 40 women receiving paclitaxel treatment, tracking how the drug is processed in their bodies and how their body composition and physical activity might play a role in the side effects they experience. They are using a special method to monitor drug levels in the blood and are also keeping tabs on the patients' health and physical activity through questionnaires and modern tracking devices. The goal here is twofold: first, to better understand why these side effects happen to some people and not others, and second, to develop a model that can predict who might be at higher risk for these side effects based on their body composition, lifestyle, and how their body handles the drug. This could lead to more personalized treatment plans that could help reduce the risk of severe side effects and improve the overall treatment experience for patients with breast cancer. In simpler terms, this research is trying to find a way to make breast cancer treatment with paclitaxel safer and more comfortable by considering how a person's lifestyle and body type might affect their reaction to the drug. This could make a big difference in helping patients complete their treatment successfully and with a better quality of life.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of end-of-life conversation game "Hello" as a tool to help individuals with various solid cancer types (including: breast, gastro-intestinal, lung, melanoma, head and neck, and/or genito-urinary cancers) treated at Penn State Health clinics and their loved ones perform advance care planning (ACP). The main questions it aims to answer are: What modifications and/or adaptations are necessary to Hello for use in cancer populations? What impact does participation in Hello event have on health care usage (e.g., number of hospitalizations, ICU admissions, emergency department visits, etc.)? How feasible is it to randomize participants to play either Hello for Cancer or Table Topics? Participants will: - Complete pre-game questionnaires - Play either Hello or Table Topics game - Complete post-game questionnaires - Participate in a focus group - Complete a telephone follow up interview 1-4 months after their event This study is a continuation of NCT06028152.
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of surgical dissection of supraclavicular lymph nodes combined with radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone in patients with ipsilateral supraclavicular lymph node metastasis.
Our objective is based on a personalized approach of adjuvant breast radiotherapy by selecting patients according to tumor recurrence and toxicity risk.
A clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of engineered Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) for the treatment of Advanced Malignant Solid Tumors
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a digital health program called AYA STEPS, which is designed to help adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors manage symptoms and engage in recommended follow-up care.
The purpose of the study is to determine if 6 and 12 months of treatment with Tamoxifen at lower dose is superior to Exemestane at lower dose on quality of life.
This study is designed to test the feasibility of two intervention on promoting early screening for breast cancer in rural Ghana. In one intervention, screening for breast cancer, diabetes and hypertension will be offered together. In another intervention, a series of sessions with men will be conducted with a goal to change gender attitudes and increase support to women. The investigators' long-term goal is to test these interventions in a large-scale randomized controlled trial. The specific aims of this feasibility study are to: 1) refine the study materials, including the curriculum for the sessions with men, by consulting with an expert advisory committee and a local committee, and 2) determine the feasibility of the two interventions in four clinic zones in Yilo-Krobo district in eastern Ghana (1 clinic in control, 1 clinic in the first intervention, and 2 in the second intervention). This trial registration is for the second specific aim.
