Filter by:A multicentre prospective comparative study, comparing the use of various markers (magnetic marker Magseed, iodine seed 125I, carbon suspension) for marking a pathological lymph node in patients with breast carcinoma prior to neoadjuvant therapy and subsequent surgical treatment consisting of targeted axillary dissection.
The study aims to test the feasibility and effects of a dietary and physical activity intervention based on evolutionary considerations in an oncological setting.
This pilot study will examine facilitators and barriers that impact staff uptake for implementation of practice change involving ipsilateral IV insertion in patients with axillary lymphadenectomy/dissection in a single radiology center.
This retrospective observational study will collect Canadian real-world data (RWD) from HER2+ metastatic breast cancer (mBC) patients to describe treatment sequences of all therapies received in the metastatic setting, to measure overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), time to next active anti-cancer therapy, and to estimate the health resources utilization (HRU) during third-line therapy.
Patients diagnosed with breast cancer who received assisted radiotherapy were recruited and the transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) was applied. The aim of of study is : 1) to study whether taVNS could improve the patient's fatigue, quality of life under radiotherapy or chemotherapy; 2) to investigate the effects of taVNS on the levels of patients' lymphocyte subsets and proinflammatory cytokines.
Aim 1: This pilot study tests the feasibility and acceptability of a mobile app-based behavioral intervention in 40 women receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer. Participants will be randomized to receive app components following a 2x2 factorial design. Feasibility will be assessed by participant recruitment yield, intervention adherence, contamination, and retention. Acceptability will be assessed by participant ratings and perceptions of intervention components as measured at post-intervention (1 month post-chemotherapy). Aim 2: Examine preliminary efficacy of the intervention components (i.e., Move, Exercise, Core) delivered alone (i.e., main effects) and in combination (i.e., interaction effects; Move+Exercise) on executive function and working memory at post-intervention. These data will inform the sample size needed for a fully-powered randomized controlled trial. Aim 2 outcomes will be measured at pre-intervention (before the first or second chemotherapy cycle) and post-intervention, and include accelerometry and neurocognitive testing. Exploratory Aim: Explore the effects of the intervention components on correlates of cancer-associated cognitive decline. Exploratory outcomes will be measured at pre- and post-intervention and include patient-reported outcomes, specifically cancer-related fatigue. Participants will also completed brief ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) their mobile phones across four 14-day measurement bursts at pre-intervention, mid-chemotherapy, and 1 month post-chemotherapy to further explore associations among behavioral patterns, cognition, and correlates.
Patients with pending breast biopsies will have the tumor site's tissue dielectric constant (TDC) measured prior to the biopsy. Similar TDC measurements will be made at a standard breast site on the biopsied breast and on mirrored sites on the non-affected breast.
The objectives of this study are to: 1) adapt a mindfulness-based therapy program designed to help women manage their sexual and body image concerns after cancer (Mindful After Cancer, MAC) to a videoconference format and 2) assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of the program among breast and gynecologic cancer survivors.
In this evaluation, 3 different versions of mailers promoting annual mammograms are being sent to women on the month of their 50th and 64th birthdays. The researchers hypothesize that the use of behavioral nudges in the mailers should lead to increased uptake in mammogram screening.
In the study, subjects will scheduled to undergo four 21-days cycles of chemotherapy treatment. Three group were treated with MW05 300 μg/kg or MW05 500 μg/kg or PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg on the 3th day of each cycle randomized 1:1:1 . The dose of the experimental drug MW05 in phase III were determined by independent data monitoring committee (IDMC) according to the efficacy and safety of phase II. Subjects were randomly divided into two groups 1:1 to received either MW05 or PEG-rhG-CSF(100 μg/kg) on the 3th day of each chemotherapy cycle.
