Filter by:The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of addition of different doses of Ketamine locally in acute and chronic post-mastectomy pain after breast cancer surgery and on the probability of developing chronic post-mastectomy pain.
This is a multicenter retrospective cohort of women participating in breast cancer screening programs in Spain between 2000 and 2009, with a cancer diagnosed during the screening or between the screening interval (interval cancer), specifically true interval cancers and false negatives. The investigators obtained woman-related information (including breast density), tumor-related information (including tumor phenotype), and follow-up information (including relapses, second neoplasms and vital status at the end of follow up (June 2014)). The objective is to evaluate the survival and disease-free period of women participating in screening programs for breast cancer with a cancer diagnosed during the screening or an interval cancer, specifically true interval cancers and false negatives. This study is part of a broader project (CAMISS study), which also includes one prospective cohort (CAMISS Prospective cohort - Identifier in ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02439554).
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide.The main cause of cancer related death is the invasion and metastasis. The usual site of spread outside the breast is to lymph nodes in the axilla.
A 12-week randomized controlled trail was conducted in 72 Chinese breast cancer survivors who had received aromatase inhibitors treatment for more than 6 months. All participants were assigned to either 12 weeks of Baduanjin classes which involved to two 90-minute sessions per week or a wait-list control. Participants completed fitness assessments, measurements of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated production of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β) ,C-reactive protein (CRP) ，BMI，BMD and questionnaires to measure QoL, fatigue, sleep quality, Aromatase Inhibitor-Induced Arthralgia, symptoms of climacteric syndrome were completed at baseline and 3 months.
This study will explore provider's screening and management practices for eligibility for neoadjuvant therapy from baseline to following the project intervention (use of a novel existing technology, the Carevive Care Planning System at the point of care plus provider continuing medical education.
The main purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of TAEST16001（TCR Affinity Enhancing Specific T cell Therapy）in the multi-line treatment failed advanced solid tumors except non small cell lung cancer,including liver cancer,gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,bone and soft tissue tumors,breast cancer, bladder carcinoma,prostate carcinoma,thyroid cancer, ovarian cancer and so on. The patients must meet the two criteria: human leukocyte antigens (HLA)-A*0201+ and NY-ESO-1 positive cells≥25% by immunohistochemistry.
The purpose of this study is to test the mechanics and feasibility of delivering an individualized intervention to increase physical activity in breast cancer survivors. In this study, researchers will test an intervention that uses a commonly worn activity monitor (i.e., global positioning system [GPS] enabled running watch) to see if they can "prescribe" specific ways to increase physical activity that are individually tailored to each participant. The goal is to help participants increase their daily physical activity without having to join a gym or other traditional fitness program. Researchers want to see if they can make specific recommendations (using an application that can be added to a cell phone, tablet and/or computer) on ways participants can slowly increase their activity based upon where they live and work and in a way that is tailored individually to them. For example, participants may be given a route to walk on their lunch break, or new place to park to allow for a longer walk to their job. The goal is to meet participants where they are in their current level of fitness, and to help them think of new and creative ways of increasing activity without the frustration of soreness or risk of injury. As they move more, the recommendations will increase with them.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral administration of Boswellia causes biological changes in primary tumors of breast cancer patients.
This project is an immunohistochemical study of archived patient breast tissue, specifically pre-invasive lesion specimens. The purpose is the discovery of novel molecular markers of pre-invasive breast lesions. These novel markers, once validated in this study, can serve as targets for individualized prevention therapy, neoadjuvant therapy for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), or predictors of lesion aggressiveness. We have discovered two novel classes of DCIS molecular pathways required for the survival of DCIS neoplastic cells that will serve as the basis for the candidate molecules to be evaluated in this proposed study. The first class of DCIS molecular markers is autophagy, a cell survival mechanism that we discovered to be highly augmented in the hypoxic and nutrient deprived intraductal neoplastic cells of human DCIS (1-4). The second class of biomarker is calcium efflux that is mediated in breast cells by the calcium export pump Plasma Membrane Calcium ATPase (PMCA2) (5, 6). During normal lactation, breast epithelium pumps large concentrations of calcium into milk. In neoplastic lesions, calcium is exported by PMCA2 as a cell survival mechanism, since cells under metabolic stress accumulate calcium to a toxic level. Calcium export in DCIS may also contribute to intraductal calcifications, a hallmark of high grade DCIS and the most common marker of DCIS on mammography (7). Sentara cares for hundreds of patients per year who are diagnosed with breast pre-invasive lesions, including atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), and lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS). Sentara treats 25% of the women with breast cancer in Virginia. Coupled with information from the Sentara Cancer Registry, Dr. Hoefer or a research team member will identify eligible patients with ADH, DCIS, and/or LCIS at the time of the core biopsy diagnosis, surgical therapy, and/or upon lesion recurrence. After receiving written informed consent from the eligible patients, Sentara Pathology will retrieve the corresponding tissue blocks. The recut tissue sections will be processed at George Mason University, Center for Applied Proteomics and Molecular Medicine for markers relevant to calcium signaling, Vitamin D response, proliferation, autophagy and inflammation. Combined with the translational research expertise/technology in the Center for Applied Proteomics and Molecular Medicine at George Mason University, Sentara's diverse patient cohort provides an opportunity to address the most fundamental unanswered questions surrounding the etiology, progression, and therapy of pre-invasive breast lesions.
This is an observational trial designed to assess prospectively the adherence rate to AIs among women with invasive breast cancer (stages I-III) currently receiving AI adjuvant therapy after standard local and systemic therapy. We will study adherence by administrating the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS - 8).
