This non-randomized, multicenter, open-label study will assess the safety and efficacy of subcutaneously administered trastuzumab in participants with early and locally advanced HER2-positive breast cancer in two sequential cohorts. First 120 participants will be treated with subcutaneous (SC) trastuzumab 600 milligrams (mg) vial (Cohort A) and the subsequent 120 participants will be treated with SC trastuzumab prefilled single use injection device (SID) (Cohort B). Participants from each cohort will receive neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy consisting of doxorubicin every 3 weeks (q3w) (1 cycle) for 4 cycles followed by paclitaxel weekly or docetaxel every 3 weeks (q3w) in combination with SC trastuzumab (600 mg) q3w for 4 cycles and a further 14 cycles of SC trastuzumab (600 mg) q3w alone. All participants will be followed up for 24 months after the last participant has received the last dose of study treatment, or earlier in case of withdrawal from the study, loss to follow-up or death.
Purpose: The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate whether MRI of the breasts with diffusion-weighted MR imaging can identify features more specific for breast cancer in women at high-risk of developing breast cancer. Participants: One hundred asymptomatic women at high-risk for breast cancer recommended for a clinical breast MRI identified through the UNC Breast Clinic will be consecutively recruited for this study. Procedures (methods): Each patient will undergo a clinical breast MRI and the addition of a single 90 second diffusion weighted sequence. A reader study will be conducted at UNC after the completion of patient accrual. The images will be analysed for lesions, enhancement patterns, diffusion weighted imaging data and correlated with any pathology or 1 year follow-up MRI exam. The study information will be entered into a secure database and analyzed.
Pyrotinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting both HER-1 and HER-2 receptors. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Pyrotinib in patients with HER2 positive advanced breast cancer: - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of pyrotinib, and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) - To determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) - To determine the pharmacokinetic profile of Pyrotinib and its metabolites - To assess preliminary antitumor activity - To determine preliminary regimen dose for phase II study - To explore the relationship between biomarkers and the toxicity/efficacy of Pyrotinib.
We are the missing link in clinical trials, connecting patients and researchers seamlessly and conveniently using a mobile health platform to advance medical research. We make it easy for patients to contribute to research for medical conditions that matter most to them, regardless of their location or ability to travel.
RATIONALE: Everolimus plus Cisplatin may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to test how effective combining Cisplatin chemotherapy with Everolimus is in treating subjects with triple negative breast cancer who have residual disease after chemotherapy.
This is a 2 Phase study. In the first phase of the study, patients with palpable invasive breast cancer underwent pre-operative supine MRI and optical scanning in the surgical position. In the second phase of the study, patients with non-palpable invasive breast cancer or DCIS who desire breast conservation will be randomized to either a usual care group, or a group receiving a supine MRI in addition to conventional imaging (mammogram and prone MRI) and undergoing breast cancer resection without the wire localization technique.
The purpose of this pilot study is to provide credible performance estimate information in order to properly plan, design, and power a larger clinical study.
Oncotype DX® is likely to become more widely used in Europe as well as in Switzerland. The test is currently not reimbursed by the Swiss health insurances. The proposed study will investigate to what extent adjuvant treatment recommendations in breast cancer patients with an ER-positive tumor, made by Swiss tumor boards, are based on conventional factors, and whether the recommendations would change, when RS results from the Oncotype DX® test were available. In addition this study approaches the dilemma of adding adjuvant CT to adjuvant endocrine therapy in a systematic fashion. In this study, the St. Gallen consensus 2009 (with a minor update from the 2011 consensus, is used to predefine the patients suitable for endocrine therapy or chemo-endocrine therapy. Once results of this study are available they may help to better integrate Oncotype DX® with other factors. Currently, it is unclear how the different factors should be integrated into one recommendation. This study will provide data on the usefulness of this test for the two patient groups which are suitable for hormone therapy only and for those who are considered for hormone plus chemotherapy.
This single arm, multicenter study will evaluate the safety of assisted subcutaneous administration of trastuzumab in participants with HER2+ eBC. Participants who have completed the first 6 cycles of intravenous (IV) trastuzumab as part of the (neo)adjuvant treatment will be eligible to receive a further 12 cycles of trastuzumab in this study. Participants will receive IV trastuzumab at initial loading dose of 8 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) body weight (BW) for three-weekly (q3w) regimen and then recommended maintenance dose of 6 mg/kg BW q3w for the first 3 cycles (cycles 7-9) in hospital followed by subcutaneous (SC) administration of trastuzumab at a fixed dose of 600 mg q3w for next 3 cycles (Cycles 10-12) at hospital and SC administration of trastuzumab at a fixed dose of 600 mg q3w at home for the next 6 cycles (Cycles 13-18).
