Filter by:HS-10352 is a highly potent and selective small molecule inhibitor of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (p110α). In preclinical studies, it demonstrated strong activity against PI3K p110α in vitro and in vivo, and inhibited tumor cell growth. The first-in-human trial is conducted to assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicity (DLT), to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and preliminary anti-tumor activity of HS-10352 at single dose and multiple doses.
This study investigates the ability of heat shock protein HSP70 to isolate and quantify circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with advanced or metastatic tumors. CTCs will be isolated from peripheral blood before antineoplastic treatment and again after three months. Isolation using HSP70 will be compared with standard CTC isolation by EpCAM. Additionally, imaging parameters of the primary tumor (if available) and metastases will be analysed and correlations between molecular alterations and imaging parameters will be assesed.
The objectives of this study are: 1. To determine the difference in genetic profiling of subjects with breast cancer recurrence 2. To determine the comprehensive genetic profiling of subjects with late stage breast cancer 3. To determine the potential biomarkers for early detection and prognosis for breast cancer 4. To determine the genetic profiling of immune system in different subtypes of breast cancer By integrating and analyzing the data generated using the methods of NGS, these information can be used for: 1. Understanding the genetic profiling of different subtypes of breast cancer in Taiwan 2. Assessing the efficacy of different treatments in breast cancer subjects 3. Defining the molecular risk factors and predicting the potential risk of breast cancer recurrence 4. Assessing the immune repertoire and the potential effects of immunotherapy in breast cancer subjects 5. Developing new strategies in treating patients with triple negative or late stage of breast cancer
METAMECH is a master observational protocol designed to empower a bi-directional collaboration between basic and clinical research, an essential prerequisite to feed and implement precision oncology. METAMECH will follow a stage-mixed cohort of at least 500 patients through their course of treatments, until death or a minimum of 5 years. Patients will be longitudinally sampled and matched clinical data (including imaging) will be collected. Via a multi-tiered informed consensus process, METAMECH will also allow to develop companion diagnostics for molecular enrichment strategies in AIRC-driven proof-of-concept trials.
This two-group, randomized control trial (RCT) will test the effects of a home-based, 16 week gait/balance training plus resistance (exercise bands) exercise program as compared to an educational cancer survivorship attention control condition to address persistent taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy in 312 patients treated for invasive breast cancer with taxanes at 1 year or more after completion of therapy. Assessments of lower extremity muscle strength, gait/balance, nerve conduction, neuropathy symptoms, and quality of life (QOL) will be performed. The proposed exercise intervention addresses gait/balance impairments and motor (resistance) components of taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy. The mechanism by which the intervention achieves the proposed outcomes is though 1) increasing endoneurial blood flow to peripheral nerves and mitochondria resulting in reduction in neuropathic symptoms (including pain) and clinical manifestations of peripheral neuropathy, while improving gait/balance in those with persistent neuropathy; 2) The subsequent increase in nutrient supply allows the mitochondria to function more efficiently, and may alleviate the neuropathic manifestations of taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy. 15 This is the first study proposing to test the home-delivery of an exercise intervention specifically aimed at persistent (long-term) taxane-induced neuropathy. If successful, this study will provide the only evidence-based intervention for patients suffering from persistent neuropathy from neurotoxic chemotherapy. Additionally, the home-delivery format makes this intervention easily translated into clinical practice. Specific Aims: In a sample of patients who completed a taxane-containing chemotherapy regimen (> 1 year) for breast cancer and who have a persistent neuropathy (VAS score of > 3) the specific aims of this RCT are: 1. To test the efficacy of a 16-week -delivered program of gait/balance training plus resistance exercise, compared to an educational attention control condition in increasing muscle strength, improving gait/balance and nerve conduction parameters, decreasing the severity of taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy symptoms, and increasing quality of life. 2. To evaluate for differences in muscle strength, gait/balance, sensory (sural) and motor (peroneal) nerve conduction, peripheral neuropathy symptoms, and quality of life (QOL) between patients who receive the exercise program, compared to those in an educational attention control condition controlling for age, BMI, taxane cycles and intervals, neuropathic pain, neuropathy/pain medications, current resistance exercise participation and falls/near falls experienced.
This project aims to assess a new type of Augmented Reality Patient Information leaflet, in order to demonstrate that it is a beneficial information resource to patients when facing the diagnosis of sarcoma, breast cancer or to explain difficult concepts such as cleft lip repair. There are no published studies on the use of AR in patient leaflets.
For breast cancer patients who are candidates to receive chemotherapy, concurrent use of temporary ovarian suppression with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) can be offered as ovarian protection. Because ovarian stimulation for oocyte cryopreservation is usually performed using a GnRH antagonist protocol and typically involves final oocyte maturation triggering with a GnRH agonist, the investigators designed this study to explore the feasibility of combining the final oocyte maturation trigger and the start of ovarian suppression. Short-term cotreatment with GnRH antagonists is needed to induce rapid luteolysis (in view of prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation). To demonstrate the safety of GnRH agonist depot triggering followed by daily GnRH antagonist luteolysis, this pilot study is set out to analyse the endocrine profile and ovarian morphology of this novel protocol.
This study will primarily identify longitudinal associations between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and cognitive function pre- (baseline) to post-chemotherapy (~3 months). This will be a prospective study of 50 BCS. We hypothesize that breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy who have higher levels of CRF at baseline will have significantly improved measures of attention, executive function, and memory post-chemotherapy. In addition, the exploratory aims will examine the longitudinal associations between physical activity (PA) and cognitive function from pre- to post-chemotherapy and explore the associations between inflammatory and non-inflammatory biomarkers and CRF with cognitive function.
The purpose of this study is to better understand how the immune system plays a role in fighting breast cancer and specifically research if the immune system response against breast cancer can be improved with endocrine therapy and cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor therapy in patients with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. This will be studied by collecting tumor tissue and blood samples before and after 2 weeks of study treatment with commonly used endocrine therapy and cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor therapy.
A phase Ib study to investigate the safety, tolerability and trends of efficacy of ALECSAT treatment as an add-on therapy to carboplatin and gemcitabine in patients with locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.
