Filter by:Numerous studies have shown the impact of anti-cancer treatments on cognition and more particularly that of chemotherapy. Elderly patients also seem to be at higher risk of developing cognitive impairment. These disorders can have a particularly negative impact in this population, in particular by having repercussions on the observance of oral treatments or even on autonomy. However, investigators still have little data concerning the management of cognitive disorders induced by oncology treatments, particularly in the elderly patient. It is therefore necessary to offer care adapted to this population which will allow the reduction of the sequelae induced by cancer treatments and the improvement of the quality of life of elderly patients.Although there are no preventive measures yet, recent studies of young women being treated for breast cancer with a cognitive complaint have shown a beneficial effect of cognitive stimulation on these cognitive disorders. Stimulation programs of this type have been developed in electronic format. However, to date, they have not been the subject of specific studies with elderly patients in whom the use of computer interface can be an obstacle.Sponsor propose to set up a study aimed at evaluating the feasibility of using cognitive stimulation software on tablets with elderly patients.The HAPPYNeuron® software, developed by a French team of neurologists, speech-language pathologists and psychiatrists, offers exercises to be performed online to stimulate the cognitive functions most impaired by oncological treatments (memory, attention, executive functions and speed of treatment).For this feasibility study, the sponsor plan to include 50 patients aged 70 and over to have them test the acceptance of cognitive stimulation by this software with a tablet interface.
This trial collects information about factors that affect communication of genetic test results, decision-making, and access to genetic testing in women with hereditary gynecological cancers. Studying individuals who are positive for a genetic mutation and immediate biological family members (including a parent, full-sibling, or child) may help identify cancer genes and other persons at risk.
This study is designed to determine the impact of a novel genetic counseling method on surgical decisions in individuals with newly diagnosed breast cancer This research study involves an expedited and surgery-specific form of genetic counseling. The names of the study methods involved in this trial are/is: - Quantitative genetic counseling (discussion is guided by tables and graphs) - Standard genetic counseling
The researchers are doing this study to see if having immediate lymphatic reconstruction after axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) can decrease the development of lymphedema, a side effect of ALND. Other purposes of the study include: Comparing the approach of immediate lymphatic reconstruction after ALND with the approach of ALND alone Looking at whether having immediate lymphatic reconstruction after ALND improves a person's quality of life Seeing if adding standard of care radiation therapy to either study approach (immediate lymphatic reconstruction after ALND or ALND alone) has an effect on development of lymphedema
This is a phase III randomized study comparing regional nodal irradiation vs. no irradiation for breast cancer patients presenting with node positive disease who turns into node negative after preoperative chemotherapy
A centralized unit for integrated management of care pathway in Oncology has been created. This unit settles the patients' appointments (biopsy, intravenous device, chemotherapy, imaging, oncologist...). The aim of this study is to assess the delay between the first appointment with the oncologist and the beginning of the antitumoral treatment, and therefore evaluate the efficacy of the care pathway unit. The second aim is to assess the satisfaction of patients and health care teams.
"Triple Negative" breast cancers are a heterogeneous group characterized by the absence of hormone receptors to estrogen, progesterone and the absence of expression or amplification of the HER-2 gene. This type of cancer is associated with an adverse clinical profile with a high risk of early metastatic relapse. Accurate identification of prognostic factors, as well as predictors of therapeutic response, and the contribution of targeted therapies are avenues for improving the management and survival of patients with these cancers. Such an approach requires optimal biological characterization, allowing us to understand the complexity of this group of tumors, and requires multidisciplinary collaboration in clinical trials involving anatomopathology, oncology and morpho-functional imaging. The investigator's goal is to characterize by innovative methods (anatomo-pathological in particular Of Immunohistochemistry, and morpho-functional imaging (TEP-TDM FDG) semi-quantitative and texture) in a population of Triple Negative Breast Cancer scans better knowledge of this entity that can lead to the development of relevant therapeutic strategies and especially more adapted in the context of precision and personalized medicine.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether it is feasible (acceptable to participants) to use a smartphone app to send text message reminders to take palbociclib, and whether these reminders are effective at helping people remember to take palbociclib according to the treatment schedule.
The purpose of this study is to find out the possible anti-cancer effect of pelareorep in combination with chemotherapy [paclitaxel] and avelumab in treating a type of breast cancer called Hormone Receptor positive (HR+)/Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 negative(HER2-) breast cancer, which is either locally advanced or has metastasized (cancer that has spread in your body). The study will investigate if pelareorep in combination with paclitaxel and avelumab is more effective than paclitaxel alone, or pelareorep and paclitaxel. The safety of the combination treatments will also be evaluated.
This study evaluates the link between muscle health and immune health in breast cancer survivors. Regular exercise is known to improve overall survival in cancer patients but the mechanism is not known. In this study the investigators will evaluate if improving muscle mass and strength via exercise improves the immune system's ability to fight cancer. This is a one armed study where in 30 breast cancer survivors will be recruited to a 4 month exercise intervention. Increase in muscle mass and strength will be correlated with immune cell frequency and function.
