Filter by:This phase II trial tests how well an exercise intervention, Exercising Together, works in preventing declines in physical and mental health in couples during radiation treatment for cancer. Treatments for cancer can cause side effects such as fatigue as well as strain on relationships. Exercising Together is a partnered exercise program that adds communication, collaboration and support between partners during exercise to fortify the relationship and amplify the benefits of physical training. Exercising Together program may be effective on the mental and physical health of couples during radiation treatment for cancer.
In the current scenario, a reliable liquid biopsy method for predicting outcomes in solid tumors, especially among breast cancer patients, is lacking. Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) serve as crucial indicators of metastasis, and their early detection could significantly enhance patient stratification and facilitate the customization of personalized treatments. However, detecting CTCs in breast cancer patients presents complexities due to their substantial phenotypic heterogeneity and typically low concentration. Numerous approaches have been developed for CTC detection. Nonetheless, the currently available technologies remain intricate, time-consuming, and costly. The BioCellPhe Project is dedicated to the development of a novel device capable of isolating and characterizing individual CTCs. This innovative device relies on the identification of specific cell membrane proteins with remarkable precision, achieved through the application of novel orthogonal techniques. On one hand, engineered bacteria are utilized to precisely bind to membrane proteins of interest on CTCs. On the other hand, Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) is employed for the detection of individual molecules. Specifically, the BioCellPhe Project focuses on comprehensively studying CTCs in breast cancer patients, encompassing both metastatic and non-metastatic cases.
TUXEDO-4 is an international, multicentric, single arm, phase II study aiming to gather additional solid evidence of Trastuzumab-Deruxtecan (T-DXd) activity in patients with Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-low breast cancer with active brain metastases. This study will analyze the efficacy of T-DXd as determined by overall response rate (ORR) at any timepoint as judged by best CNS response according to RANO-BM criteria.
This Phase I clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) profile and preliminary efficacy of intratumoral injection of Carbon Nanoparticle-Loaded Iron [CNSI-Fe(II)] in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study also aims to observe dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) of CNSI-Fe(II) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the highest injectable dose in humans, providing dosing guidelines for future clinical studies. CNSI-Fe(II) shows promise as an innovative tumor therapeutic agent due to its unique properties of ferroptosis. The study primarily focuses on assessing the potential efficacy of CNSI-Fe(II) in patients with advanced solid tumors, particularly in patients with Kras mutation, e.g., pancreatic cancer patients.
Obesity could become the first evitable cause of breast cancer in the near future. Due to the relatively slow rate of development in this field, greater efforts must be applied in this area. The HYPOTHESIS of this work is that "a therapy to lose weight in breast cancer women with obesity during the oncological treatment could contribute to slowing carcinogenesis, and to improve the response to the chemotherapy, survival and prevent future recurrences by erasing deleterious epigenetic marks". A group of breast cancer women with obesity (n=90) will be treated to lose weight during the oncologic treatment with a low calorie-ketogenic diet or a group educational intervention program of healthy lifestyle. The reversibility of the obesity-related breast cancer epigenetic signatures (EPIC array and pyrosequencing) and other molecular features (QRTPCR, ELISA assays) in blood leukocytes and plasma and the progression of disease will be compared with an obesity (n=30) and normalweight (n=30) group under conventional anticancer therapy. A matched-group of tumor-free women (n=60) with obesity will be also treated to lose weight with the same nutritional interventions and compared with tumor-free women with normal weight (n=30) in order to evaluate the potential preventive function of weight loss therapies on cancer-related odds. The outcomes of this project will directly benefit overweight and obese patients from healthcare systems, and also to have an economic value supporting pharmaceutical and food industry companies in the design of innovative treatments, useful biomarkers and preventive tools.
Prospective single centre study of patients with DCIS that have undergone breast conservation surgery.
When we talk about early identification, we are talking about an ALREADY EXISTING INJURY, triggering a change in the patient's quality of life and a projection of future costs for the health system. INNOVATIVE ASPECT: While screening mammography identifies an existing lesion, VTM could: Make an early diagnosis before the formation of a visible or palpable tumor mass; Check the metabolic activity in suspicious lesions identified by other diagnostic methods; Demarcate tumor range and tumor similarity from a distance in breast cancer. Regarding the Risk x Benefit:There are no medications incorporated, associated or administered by the equipment; There is no ionizing radiation incorporated or delivered by the equipment; There are no contraindications for the use of the equipment by the patient (Non-ionizing infrared radiation, without contrast or contact); Audience destined to operate the equipment: Physician / Radiologist with training Therefore, the research in question is of great relevance for such a debilitating health problem for the patient and for the health system.
This study aims to establish a holistic framework for continuous cancer survival surveillance in Russian regions with high-quality population-based cancer registry data. The data from the population-based cancer registries of the Northwestern regions of Russia will be used to assess net and cause-specific survival trends.
This is a single-arm, open, dose-increasing phase I clinical study to explore the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the drug C-13-60 cells, and preliminarily observe the efficacy of the drug in CEA positive late malignant solid tumors, and explore the applicable dose regimen for phase II clinical trials.
This phase II study is a clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of SI-B003 monotherapy and BL-B01D1+SI-B003 combination therapy in patients with unresectable locally advanced or recurrent metastatic HER-2 negative breast cancer.
