Filter by:Trastuzumab is an important treatment for HER 2 positive breast cancer. But trastuzumab can cause injury to the heart, and this is one of the main reasons it cannot be administered as planned. Heart injury can often be successfully treated using cardiac medications. The aim of SCHOLAR is to evaluate whether it is safe to continue trastuzumab in individuals with mild or moderate cardiac injury, while treating them with appropriate cardiac medications. In this way the investigators hope to be able to optimise the delivery of a treatment to patients with breast cancer that has proven survival benefits, especially when administered for a full 12-month course.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether one dose of denosumab can lead to changes in the tumor, which may decrease the ability of tumor to spread.
Integrative approaches to promote wellness and reduce the distress associated with cancer are considered as essential components of cancer care. In case, exercise training has been shown to produce many positive physiological and psychological benefits. Mindfulness-based stress reduction program shows similar beneficial effects, and especially in emotional distress management. The aim of the study is to examine the cumulative effect of an 8 week-exercise-training program combined with an MBSR program on cardio-respiratory fitness and quality of life in women with breast cancer. These effects are thought to be mediated in part through changes in underlying brain processes, that investigators will be put in light. Through telomerase activity, oxidative stress, mitochondrial respiration and blood cytokine level measurements, investigators could expect to better understand the effect of these combined training in breast cancer.
Breast cancers are among the cancers that metastasize the most to the skeleton. The appearance of bone metastasis, whether they are initials or during a relapse, is a turning point of the disease, due to the additional morbidity they imply (pain, pathologic fractures, hypercalcaemia, neurological compression, etc.). A specific treatment of these metastasis is often undertaken, usually a chemotherapy or hormone therapy. It is important to evaluate the efficacy of this treatment in order to know whether to continue or change it depending on the response observed. But there is no consensus at this time on paraclinical examinations enabling this monitoring. Also, if some criteria for assessing bone metastasis in imaging and nuclear medicine (MDA, PERCIST, EORTC) have been published in the literature, none is formally validated and evaluation in routine practice remains subjective. The main objective of our study is to determine if the PET-CT and the whole-body MRI are in agreement on the status of bone metastasis (stability, progression, partial response, complete response).
The objectives of this work are threefold: 1. To evaluate the analgesic efficacy of CWI in women discharged within 23 hours of major breast cancer surgery 2. To evaluate objective indices of patient recovery following anaesthesia and surgery in a 23 hour model of care 3. To evaluate patient satisfaction with their care pathway
The purpose of this study is to develop and test a 12-month Integrative Medicine intervention based on Ayurvedic medicine in recent breast cancer survivors.
The purpose of this study is to develop and test a 6 month manualized Health Education intervention in recent breast cancer survivors.
This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial in China will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pertuzumab + trastuzumab + docetaxel compared with placebo + trastuzumab + docetaxel in participants with previously untreated HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and quality of life in women with advanced breast cancer (locally advance inoperable or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the breast), HR+ / HER2-, who are treated with an aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant as baseline therapy in combination with palbociclib (Ibrance)
Generally, French studies concerned with the quality of life of cancer patients focus on the period of treatment (up to 2 years post diagnosis). However, studies about quality of life "after" cancer are relatively rare (= long-term quality of life, or from 5 years post diagnosis). These studies mainly concern the most common cancers (breast and prostate). Or changes in quality of life after treatment could be different depending on the type of cancer. In addition, there is a significant influence of sociodemographic variables on the quality of life in remission. Similarly using remote diagnostics, quality of life questionnaires related to health, must be reassessed because too often developed for situations in process. Based on these findings, "ELCCA II" study proposes to study for five years, the evolution of the impacts of two types of cancer (breast and melanoma) on quality of life (overall and related to the subjective health), socioeconomic status, and behavioral and emotional dimensions (post-traumatic development, coping, anxiety-depression) of those treated.
