Filter by:The project is a double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase II chemoprevention trial. Study participants will be randomly assigned to receive either tamoxifen or placebo for one year. Participants will subsequently be followed for one year off of medication. The primary objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of tamoxifen in reducing breast density by mammogram.
The purpose of this study is to compare the Time To Disease Progression (TTDP) between those patients with unresectable, locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer who are treated with concomitant Docetaxel plus Gemcitabine to those patients treated with sequential therapy of Docetaxel followed by Gemcitabine.
The purpose of this study is to assess the detection rate and false negative rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy following previous surgical biopsy for early breast cancer diagnosis.
This study will determine if hormone receptor positive premenopausal metastatic breast cancer patients who undergo removal of the ovaries in mid-luteal versus mid-follicular phase have a longer survival.
RATIONALE: Antiemetic drugs, such as aprepitant, granisetron, and dexamethasone, may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients treated with chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well giving aprepitant together with granisetron and dexamethasone works in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients receiving cyclophosphamide before undergoing an autologous stem cell transplant.
The objective of the present clinical investigation is to determine whether hormonal therapy given preoperatively is able to reduce tumor size to an extent that facilitates breast-conserving procedures.
The purpose of this study is to assess the difference in event-free survival between postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer who switched from tamoxifen to anastrozole and those who continued to receive tamoxifen.
To assess the effects of twelve months of celecoxib administration by evaluating breast tissue needle aspirations, to determine if cell growth can be slowed.
Mixed cancer vaccines, CHP-HER2 protein and CHP-NY-ESO-1 protein, are to be studied to evaluate the safety and immune responses in patients who are positive either or both antigens. Nine patients will be enrolled, who are refractory to standard therapies for cancer or at high risk to relapse. CHP-HER2 and CHP-NY-ESO-1 are subcutaneously given on bimonthly basis, together with OK-432(Picibanil) as an immunoadjuvant. Six doses will be given. Toxicity profiles will be monitored, and antigen specific humoral anad T cell responses will be described.
A pilot study to assess the effects of six months of letrozole on breast tissue risk markers in postmenopausal women on hormone replacement therapy at high risk of developing breast cancer.
