Filter by:The purpose of this study is to explore risk factors for grade 4 neutropenia in users of the study medicine Palbociclib for the potential treatment of Palbociclib. This study is seeking participants: - treated with the study medicine Palbociclib - having any breast cancer records in same month as the initiation date - having prescription records of palbociclib from 15 December 2017 to 29 February 2024 The study design is a nested case control study. This study design uses de-identified patient data from a hospital based electronic medical record and claim database in Japan. This design was selected since the primary objective is to explore risk factors of Grade 4 neutropenia in users of the study medicine Palbociclib. One of the important side effects of taking Palbociclib is neutropenia (decreased count of neutrophils - a type of white blood cell). In this study the effect of Palbociclib in decreasing the neutrophil count was studied after it was released to the market. To do that, the study gathered details of breast cancer patients newly treated with Palbociclib from 23 hospitals and 10 medical institutes across Japan. The below patient details were collected: - dose of Palbociclib - other medicines prescribed for cancer - age - gender - past information on cancer treatments - laboratory findings at baseline The result was based on the neutrophil count collected from the laboratory data. Around 1300 patients newly treated with Palbociclib for breast cancer was calculated by the medical information database network (MID-NET) in 6 years from 15 December 2017. Patients who develop grade 4 neutropenia after palbociclib initiation will be matched to controls who do not develop grade 4 neutropenia. A statistical model will be used to explore risk factors of grade 4 neutropenia adjusted for important potential confounding factors.
Impact of pectoral nerve block on postoperative pain and quality of recovery in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery: A prospective study
breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women and first cause of cancer death among them. in Egypt it constitutes 33% of female cancer cases and more than22000 new cases diagnosed each year. there are many prognostic factors for breast cancer as Tumer size, axillary lymph node status, hormonal receptor status, and tumer markers as Ca15-3 and interferon gamma.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Reiki on symptom control and quality of life in breast cancer patients.
breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. With more than 1 in 10 new cancer diagnoses each year, It is the second most frequent cancer-related death among women worldwide. Breast cancer develops slowly, and the majority of cases are found through routine screening. breast cancer-causing deaths among women all over the world and increased in the last few years even though the treatment is advanced like immunotherapy chemotherapy by yet no treatment for triple-negative breast cancer zinc and competition between znt1 and zip6,10 at breast cancer cells. Is zinc ionophore like quercetin and EGCG has a role, In a novel experimental study zinc is a trace metal that has many roles in cells, enzymatic activity, and gene regulations, and also for the integrity of DNA. Zinc transporters (zinc related -proteins such as ZIPs, and ZnTs are affected by triggers factors like cytokines and growth factors. There are two large families of zinc transporters like ZIPs ( 14 members) and ZnTs family (10 members), ZIPS family cause an influx of zinc from the extracellular to the cytoplasm and also from intracellular organelles like endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi or mitochondria in contrast to ZnTs which cause an influx of zinc from the cytoplasm to intracellular organelles. ( lower cytoplasmic zinc) (1) Breast cancer deaths occurred from metastasis; Catalytic enzymes called proteases like cathepsin L are frequently overexpressed in aggressive cancers. Breast tumor metastatic potential is correlated with macrophage presence. These macrophages associated with tumors frequently adopt an M2-like pro-tumorigenic phenotype, which results in the production of growth hormones and proteases, notably the lysosomal protease cathepsin L. Because cathepsin L is commonly released by breast cancer cells and aids in tumor invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. It is expected that cathepsin L secretion by both tumor-associated macrophages and neoplastic cells would promote the metastatic phenotype because cathepsin L is widely produced by breast cancer cells and helps with tumor invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. (2) this study target new mechanisms and achieves the best management as some types of cancer breast like triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) no definite treatment so we target the following pathways and epigenetic processes by these adjuvant compounds which have a promising role in the immunity like EGCG, Quercetin, Zinc, Metformin so our team will discuss novel methods to achieve the best efficacy from chemotherapy
This clinical trial will enroll subjects with HER2+ solid tumors and is conducted in two phases. The primary objective of Phase 1 is to determine the safety and tolerability of AB-201 in subjects with advanced HER2+ solid tumors. The primary objective of Phase 2 is to evaluate the efficacy of AB-201. Subjects will receive up to 3 doses of AB-201, followed by scheduled assessments of overall health and tumor response.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the acceptability by patients treated for breast cancer of an adapted motor activity program over a period of 15 months controlled by a postural and functional analysis.. Participant population/health conditions: patients with newly operated breast cancer who are candidates for an adapted physical activity program
This clinical trial tests how well phytocannabinoids (cannabidiol [CBD] and tetrahydrocannbinol [THC]) work in reducing chronic chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in breast and colon cancer survivors. Neuropathy is the most common neurological symptom reported by cancer patients due to treatment. A variety of pharmacologic treatments have been evaluated to alleviate CIPN symptoms; however, no definitive treatment has been found to successfully treat all the symptoms of CIPN. Therefore, investigators continue to seek other possible treatment options including cannabis. Phytocannabinoids may be a particularly useful intervention for cancer patients given the limited effective treatments for CIPN. In addition, cannabis-based medicines have become tremendously popular as both cancer patients and clinicians are seeking therapies with fewer potential risks of dependency and other side effects. This trial is being done to provide cancer patients and clinicians with reliable information to help guide their use of phytocannabinoids to manage the tremendous distress and pain experienced by many cancer patients, which impacts their long-term quality of life.
In the present prospective study, we will analyze the outcome of image-guided delivery of intra-arterially infused chemotherapeutic drugs for patients with breast cancer in III, IV stages.
Obesity is an important risk factor for postmenopausal breast cancer. A large meta-analysis concluded that obesity is associated with a 20% to 40% increased risk for receptor-positive postmenopausal breast cancer. The International Agency for Research on Cancer working group on obesity and cancer risk drew similar conclusions. Obesity seems to have the opposite effect among premenopausal women, with most studies suggesting that higher BMI is associated with a reduced risk of premenopausal breast cancer. Determining whether deliberate weight loss is associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer is difficult in part because sustained weight loss is difficult to achieve and few studies have sufficient statistical power to address this question. Bariatric surgery is one of the few weight loss interventions in which significant weight loss is maintained. A limited number of previous studies have suggested a reduced risk of cancer following bariatric surgery. Recently, it showed that bariatric surgery is associated with a lower risk of several types of cancer, including an approximately 40 % reduction in the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer. However, whether bariatric surgery affects breast cancer risk in premenopausal women and whether this association is altered by estrogen receptor (ER) status has not been addressed. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between weight loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and breast cancer.
