Filter by:Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumor in women. About 69.75% of breast cancer women patients in China are over 45 years old. It is a multicenter prospective observational study. We collect the basic information, medical history, chemotherapy-related adverse reactions, and the results of blood lipid and bone density test before, during and after adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The purpose of the study is to investigate the risk factors for hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis in postmenopausal breast cancer patients before and after chemotherapy, and to assess the risk of future arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease and osteoporotic fractures. In addition, the collected information of the subjects are analyzed to provide suggestions for the relevant prevention strategy.
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumor in women. About 60% of breast cancer patients are still in premenopausal status at the time of diagnosis in China. It is a multicenter prospective observational study. We will collect basic information, medical history, chemotherapy-related adverse reactions, and the results of hormone, blood lipid, and bone density test before, during and after adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of chemotherapy on ovarian function and fertility and the protective effect of GnRHa. In addition, the collected information of the subjects are analyzed to provide suggestions for the relevant prevention strategy.
This study evaluates the efficacy of the probiotic food supplement Vivomixx in the prevention of bone loss occurring in post menopausal women with breast cancer treated with an aromatase inhibitor. Half of the participants will receive Vivomixx while the other half will receive a placebo. The primary endpoint is to assess changes of bone turnover markers during the period of 6 months.
The use of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) has facilitated implant-based breast reconstruction, both in single-stage direct-to-implant (DTI) and staged tissue expander placement. Nearly half of all breast reconstruction procedures performed within the United States have incorporated ADM. Despite such widespread acceptance among both patients and plastic surgeons, manufacturers of ADM face difficulties in obtaining approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use of their product as a medical device in breast reconstructions. ADM is defined as banked tissue and, as such, is approved for use as tissue support. Under section 510k of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, ADM must exhibit "soft tissue reinforcement of integument" to be considered a medical device, a criterion that has yet to be physiologically or clinically defined. This distinction precludes the development and manufacture of xenogeneic ADM. The aim of this research is to compare reconstruction outcomes between ADM and Vicryl, a non-ADM control that is hydrolyzed and degraded within 6-8 weeks after surgery. The investigators propose a prospective cohort study to determine whether post-operative outcomes provide clinical and anatomic evidence for soft tissue reinforcement within the ADM group.
Experimental, clinical, and epidemiological studies have all demonstrated the strong association between chronic inflammation and cancer, and many studies have correlated the prolonged presence of the inflammatory milieu with an increased risk for developing cancer.(1) Although the potential mechanism for aspirin preventing breast cancer is not known, possible pathways may involve platelets, inflammation, cyclooxygenase (COX) 2, hormones, or PI3 kinase. (2). In actual clinical practice there exist clear guidelines for the use of aspirin in colorectal cancer but no such guidelines exist for the use of aspirin in breast cancer patients. In the Unit´s proper experience, in patients under active surveillance and metastatic ones some present very good responses both in the neoadjuvant and in the metastatic setting but investigators intend to provide evidence and not just the experience. This study patients are proposed to combine their standard treatment with aspirin.
This is an open labelled study. It was designed to evaluate the safety of multiple-dosing of TK006 in patients with breast cancer-related bone metastases. This trial is the extension of a core study: Phase 1 Trial of a Fully Human Monoclonal Antibody of Receptor Activator for Nuclear Factor-κ B Ligand (RNAKL, TK006) Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics in Patients With Breast Cancer-related Bone Metastases (NCT 03239756).
Over the last two decades in the field of oncology, the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation have reached a remarkable development, improving healing rates and reducing the number of deaths from cancer. The most frequent cancer in the female population is the breast one, which consequences can become disabling. In recent years, surgeons need to find more effective and less invasive treatments. Nowadays, despite the achievements, oncological surgery can cause side effects that cannot allow the return to normal life. Some of these problems are represented by the formation of edema and seroma, which can be handled by the physiotherapist through the manual lymphatic drainage and the application of an elastic tape. The elastic tape is used a lot in clinical practice, despite it lacks supportive evidence. The primary aim of the study is to verify the effectiveness of Kinesio Tex Tape in reducing edema and seroma formation following complex reconstructive breast surgery. The secondary goals are the evaluation of the quality of the scar, of the perception of pain, of the degree of satisfaction and disability. It is a controlled, monocentric, national, comparative, randomized, single-blind study. The sample size is 60 patients who undergo complex reconstructive breast surgery. Patients are divided into two groups: the experimental one (receiving standard treatment and Kinesio Tex Tape application) and a group of control (just receiving standard treatment). To evaluate edema and seroma, ultrasound is used; ultrasounds will be on the 1st, 15th and 30th postoperative days (T0, T1 and T2); Vancouver Scar Scale is used to define the quality of the scar (T0 and T2); to measure the subjective perception of pain and to evaluate the degree of patient satisfaction, two VAS scales are administered (the VAS scale for pain is administered at T0, T1 and T2, while the VAS scale for satisfaction is given at T1 and T2); Finally, to assess the degree of disability, the DASH Questionnaire is used (T0, T1 and T2).
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women worldwide, and is the leading cause of death from cancer among women globally. Mammography is the standard method for early detection of BC in many countries, with over 1.3 million annually new diagnosed cases.In Egypt, breast cancer is the most common cancer in females accounting for 38.8% of all female cancers.
This is a multi-centre prospective non-interventional study designed to evaluate the effects of patient age on the pharmacokinetics of capecitabine and its metabolites 5'DFCR, 5'DFUR, and 5-FU. In addition, the study will assess the correlation between the pharmacokinetic parameters calculated and cytidine deaminase, biomarkers of aging, clinical frailty, treatment outcome, and toxicity. To be enrolled, patients must have breast or colorectal cancer and be eligible to receive capecitabine monotherapy in accordance with its approved clinical usage in the UK. Treatment will be administered according to NICE guidelines as well as the clinical judgement of the prescribing physician. One hundred patients (50 breast cancer patients, 50 colorectal cancer patients) who are about to start treatment with capecitabine monotherapy will be recruited to the study and undergo study procedures within the first week of treatment.
The treatment of the patients with metastatic breast cancer remains a major problem. However, there is an intermediate state between the primary tumor and distant metastases called oligometastasis. Current research indicates that good local control of oligometastasis can be obtained with Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) Can not prolong the long-term survival of patients. Researchers believe that after SBRT treatment of patients with oligometacosis in breast cancer, it is necessary to explore whether the anti-angiogenic therapy targeted drug apatinib can reduce the occurrence of new lesions and prolong the survival of patients.
