Filter by:The purpose of this study is to obtain sufficient specimens and correlating clinical data from a well-controlled prospective clinical trial collecting longitudinal specimens from subjects diagnosed with any stage of breast cancer.
A randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 2 patient navigator conditions: PN+ and usual PN in which (condition 1) we will evaluate the efficacy of a culturally tailored PN program ("PN+") on improving quality of life (QoL), screening practices and treatment follow-up compliance among breast HL survivors. In usual PN, participants will receive information brochures on breast cancer survivorship and have a minimum of 1 contact with the patient navigator.
PRIMe is a prospective, case-only trial designed to measure the impact of MammaPrint on physician chemotherapy intention in the two discordant groups (ET/POOR, CT/GOOD) in stage 1 and 2 HR-positive HER2-negative breast cancer patients. The design also provides for assessment of several important secondary indicators. Eligible patients will have their tumor sample analyzed for MammaPrint, BluePrint and TargetPrint. Patients cannot start treatment before the MammaPrint result is received and taken into consideration for the adjuvant treatment plan.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of a "patient navigator" program that uses a trained community lay health worker to assist Hispanic patients in utilizing cancer care services. This study is a two part study. The first part of the study consists of a retrospective data collection procedure called "baseline clinical chart audit" of 50 Hispanic women over 18 years of age who have had a mammography abnormality classified as BI-RADS 3, 4 or 5. These data will be drawn from the study clinic's existing records and will serve as baseline data for subjects recruited during the course of the study. The second part of the study, the intervention group, involves the recruitment of 50 low-income, Hispanic women who receive abnormal breast cancer screening results (also classified as BI-RADS 3, 4 or 5) from screening services at local community health clinics. Participants will have significantly higher compliance rates and significantly shorter time lags and between an abnormal screening result, and confirmatory screening tests and commencement of treatment, compared to our baseline. The investigators expect at least a 12% increase in after-screening compliance rate and a 25% reduction in time lags in the treatment group, in relation to the pre-intervention baseline assessment.
Single arm study to assess the effectiveness of single dose intraoperative radiation therapy in patient with in situ and early stage breast cancer.
This Phase IV, prospective, multicenter, non-interventional study (regulatory post-marketing surveillance) will evaluate the safety of pertuzumab in approximately 1000 participants with metastatic or locally unresectable recurrent breast cancer who have never received chemotherapy or anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) therapy for their metastatic disease with HER2 positivity in Korea. Participants who are administered with pertuzumab according to medical opinions of the doctor in charge of surveillance will be registered for this study and treated with pertuzumab under the approval conditions of the product in Korea.
Women with early-stage breast cancer (BrCA) are surviving longer, but many experience symptoms after curative treatments. Approximately 50% of BrCA survivors experience persistent pain post-surgery. Identifying individuals at high risk for long-term symptoms is important for restoring function and enhancing quality of life. This pilot study will investigate psychological (depression, anxiety, catastrophizing) and biological (inflammatory markers, gut microbiome, pain sensitivity) correlates of persistent post-surgical pain in women participants with early-stage BrCA. The investigators will also investigate the type of surgery that participants had and whether it is related to persistent pain. The investigators plan explore these factors over time.
This study is to investigate sex hormones levels of Chinese patients with invasive breast cancer.The aim is to analyze biochemical monitoring results of premenopausal and postmenopausal patients to facilitate determination of menopausal status and propose clinical application.
The objective of this study is to compare quilting suture of the "dead space" without drainage of the pectoral area to conventional closure with drainage to prevent post-operative seroma requiring intervention (aspiration or surgical intervention) within 21 days after mastectomy for breast cancer.
The goal of this research study is to learn more about how different treatment decisions may influence the quality of life in women with breast cancer. Researchers want to use what is learned from this study to help future patients with breast cancer to be more informed when making treatment decisions.
