To examine whether the occurrence of oral mucositis can be reduced by dental oral management in patients by comparing the use of dental oral management through instruction by dental and oral surgeons (dental oral management group) and an observation group (brushing instruction only group) in a randomized, controlled study in females that are using everolimus for estrogen receptor-positive, hormone therapy-resistant refractory breast cancer.
The primary objective of the study is to clarify factors affecting the incidence of peripheral neuropathy in patients treated with HALAVEN. A total of 590 patients will be enrolled in this study with 295 patients in the treatment group of primary or secondary chemotherapy and 295 patients in the treatment group of tertiary or later chemotherapy.
Our goal is to evaluate, in France, the effectiveness (in terms of participation) of the general practitioner involvement (signature) and a more personalized communication in invitation letters to organized screening of breast, colorectal and cervical cancers. The hypothesis on which this project is based is that communication is probably more effective if the "receiver" feels personally targeted by invitation letters (Dear Martin, I am writing ...) and if he knows "the issuer "(his general practitioner rather an unknown person).
This study is being conducted to investigate the effect of a more in-depth education plan for patients with breast cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive either the standard education plan during their breast cancer treatment or they will receive in-depth education about their breast cancer treatment. In order to see what kind of effect the different education plans have, patients will fill out three identical questionnaires during the course of treatment.
The potential consequences after breast cancer surgery are joint pain and sensitive disorders, the main sign of which is alterations in shoulder mobility. Global kinesitherapy has been shown to be effective at increasing shoulder range of motion restriction. However, literature does not consider specific manual therapy techniques, which means peripheral nerves and articular capsule have not been taken into account. These two tissues are potentially damaged structures during surgery and they are main responsible for shoulder range of motion restriction The main objective of this study is to pilot the effectiveness of accessory joint and nerve mobilization techniques in order to get an overview of the articular capsule and nerve dysfunctions involvement in shoulder motion restriction.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if Xofigo® (also called Ra-223 dichloride) combined with hormone therapy and denosumab can help to control breast cancer that has spread to the bones and/or bone marrow. The safety of this study drug combination will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Denosumab and the hormone therapies used in this study are FDA-approved and commercially available for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Ra-223 dichloride is FDA-approved and commercially available for the treatment of bone metastases. It is considered investigational to use the combination of Ra-223 dichloride, hormone therapy and denosumab to treat patients with bone cancer that has spread to the bones. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 36 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is increasingly used for early-stage operable breast cancer. Response of breast cancer to NAC is correlated with survival: patients who obtain greatest survival advantage are those who attain complete response of their primary tumor. BReast Cancer 1 (BRCA1) plays a crucial role in DNA repair and associations between BRCA1 mRNA expression and sensitivity to platinum and/or resistance to taxanes has been previously documented. We propose a two-arm, randomized, multi-centre, open-label phase II study to compare the efficacy and tolerability of NAC customized by BRCA 1 levels versus standard FEC chemotherapy, being pathological complete response the primary endpoint.
The purpose of this study is to find out the effects of acupuncture on reducing nerve damage. Acupuncture is a medical technique of inserting very thin needles into the "energy points" on the body with the aim to restore health and well-being. It has been used widely to treat pain, such as lower back pain and joint pain. In this study the investigators will assess if acupuncture can be used to ease the pain, tingling and numbness that may be caused by chemotherapy and improve quality of life during chemotherapy.
Imagio breast imaging system, is an opto-acoustic (OA) imaging system designed to concurrently collect images in conjunction with diagnostic ultrasound ( co-registered OA and B-mode imaging). This medical device has CE-marking and is approved for use in Europe and other nations. This is a post-market, non-randomized multi-center surveillance study.
