Filter by:The goal of this interventional study is to optimize the protocol of FES PET/CT in Estrogen Receptor positive Breast cancer patients with Brain metastases. Patients will undergo MRI of the brain and FDG PET/CT brain as part of standard of care for radiation treatment planning. An additional 18F-FES PET/CT brain scan will be completed before this standard of care radiation treatment. Patients will be followed prospectively with clinical and MRI assessments per standard-of-care for a total of 12 months. Study Population: Patients with ER-positive breast cancer with biopsy proven or suspected new or recurrent brain metastases (based on standard of care MRI) planned for radiation treatment of brain lesions.
This is a multicenter randomized, open label study to evaluate overall survival with the Bria-IMT regimen in combination with Checkpoint Inhibitor [Retifanlimab], versus Treatment of Patients'/Physicians' Choice (TPC) in advanced metastatic or locally recurrent breast cancer (aMBC) patients with no approved alternative therapies available.
The goal of this clinical study is to explore whether preoperative application of 3D printing technology to evaluate breast blood supply can improve the occurrence of ischemic complications in the flap and nipple areola complex after surgery.
This will be a single-blinded study where participants are blinded to the suture type but the surgeon will draw a random, unmarked envelope containing the designated suture type at the start of the surgery. The patient population will be all patients undergoing breast surgery at the London Health Sciences Center (LHSC) - ie. University Hospital, Victoria Hospital and the Nazem Kadri Surgical Center, and St. Joseph's Hospital. Three (3) main procedure groups will be transgender gender-affirming top surgery, cisgender female breast reduction or augmentation (including healthy and cancer patients; subgroup analysis will be performed), and cisgender male gynecomastia surgery. The goal is n=180 patients, n=60 per type of suture with n=20 per type of procedure (totaling n=60 per type of procedure). NAC width for each breast will be measured intraoperatively, at 2 weeks postop, 6 weeks postop, 3 months postop, and 6 months postop. These measurements will be deidentified and logged into a secure data entry form. Information on whether a secondary outcome occurred (ie. infection, dehiscence, revision and nipple necrosis) will be logged in this form as well. Because the sutures will be kept non-visible under dressings until the clinical followup appointment 2 weeks postop, the patient will remain blinded as to the type of suture used on their NAC(s). At this point, absorbable sutures will have been largely dissolved and non-absorbable sutures will be removed.
This study aims to identify HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer patients who could benefit from neoadjuvant treatment using PHESGO™ (pertuzumab and trastuzumab) without chemotherapy. The approach involves utilizing specific biomarkers (HR and HER2 IHC status) to select participants whose tumors strongly rely on the HER2 pathway, potentially benefiting from a HER2-targeted approach without chemotherapy concurrently.
Identify and test thresholds, specificity and sensitivity for a potential cancer associated biomarker protein, FGF19, (and associated markers) for detection in human blood in the blood of breast and colorectal in cancer patients, and see if occurs at higher rates than healthy controls
This pilot observational study is being done to identify possible biomarkers of response to endocrine therapy in patients with ER/PR+ metastatic lobular breast cancer (LBC) starting new endocrine therapy. 18F-fluorofuranylnorprogesterone Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (FFNP-PET/CT) and liquid biopsies will be performed at baseline and after 4 weeks of treatment. Baseline levels and dynamic on-treatment changes in estrogen signaling as measured by FFNP-PET/CT and circulating tumor cell (CTC) liquid biopsy will be correlated with clinical response to endocrine therapy and progression-free survival in the above cohort of patients.
This study aims to assess biomarkers and their related polymorphisms in the context of cancer-associated thromboembolism, with a particular focus on their interaction with the immune system. The roles of immune checkpoints, inflammatory and angiogenesis factors, as well as circulating immune cells will be elucidated. Additionally, our investigation extends to the exploration of long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) and genes associated with the coagulation vascular system. Initially, these aspects will be evaluated in the context of colorectal cancer, with the intention to expand our research to other solid tumors. The identification of these biomarkers and genetic factors holds the potential to revolutionize therapeutic approaches for patients with cancer-associated thromboembolism, shedding light on their chemotherapy resistance. The effectiveness of combining immunotherapy with targeted inhibitors like Palbociclib and anticoagulants such as Rivaroxaban, among other potential interventions, will be assessed. This study aims to make significant contributions to the understanding of these critical aspects, ultimately leading to the development of more effective treatment strategies for cancer patients.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, rehabilitation services for all patients were affected, and a term that was previously in use but gained popularity during the pandemic entered our vocabulary: 'Telerehabilitation'. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the treatment process and adherence of patients undergoing telerehabilitation.
The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to learn about TNG348, a ubiquitin specific peptidase 1 (USP1) inhibitor, alone and in combination with olaparib in patients with BRCA 1/2 mutant or HRD+ solid tumors. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the recommended dose for Phase 2 of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the pharmacokinetics of TNG348 as a single agent and in combination therapy - to evaluate the initial antineoplastic activity as a single agent and in combination therapy Participants will receive study treatment until they experience an undesirable side effect, their disease progresses or until they withdraw consent.
