Filter by:The "Hyperbaric OxygeN therapy on brEast cancer patients with late radiation toxicity" (HONEY) trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of HBOT on late radiation toxicity in breast cancer patients using the trial within cohorts (TwiCs) design.
This is a Phase 1 open-label, multicenter study to evaluate biomarkers for ZN-c5 in subjects with breast cancer
A Phase III, Multi-Center, Randomized, Open-Label, Active-Controlled Trial to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Recombinant Human Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor-Fc Fusion Protein (F-627) and Recombinant Human Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (GRAN®) in the Prophylactic Treatment for Chemotherapy-Induced Neutropenia
The aim of this study was to investigate the quality of life (QoL) for women with breast cancer in Taiwan after using the BCSMS App.
The Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) is a frequently used biomarker of the systemic inflammatory response and is considered one of the most sensitive markers of inflammation. Many studies have documented the association between the use of opioid drugs in the acute phase -as it can be considered the use during general anesthesia- and the increase of the NLR value. Such increase could determine a temporary phase of immunodepression in the immediate post operative period with consequent increase of the inflammatory state. This study intends to assess whether different anesthetic techniques can be associated with different variations of the intra-patient NLR value between pre- and post-surgery. Patient will be randomized to receive either local regional anesthesia protocols with thoracic wall blocks (PEC I and serratus plane block) associated with opioid-free general anesthesia (PECS + Opioid-free GA) or general anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of an mobile-health strategy to improve patient-reported symptoms, promote life-saving medication adherence, and encourage healthy lifestyle behaviors in early stage breast cancer survivors receiving adjuvant Aromatase inhibitors, while beginning to predict psycho-social and demographic characteristics of those who benefit most from this approach. This will provide preliminary experience and evidence for larger, randomized clinical trials evaluating this methodology, which will have immediate and scalable influence on cancer survivor ship.
Metformin, the widely prescribed oral hypoglycemic drug, is well known for its established efficacy, favorable safety profile, and low cost. Metformin has recently received increasing attention because of its potential antitumorigenic effects that are thought to be independent of its hypoglycemic effects. It has been extensively studied in preclinical models, which have implicated several molecular pathways in its antitumor activity. Metformin was proved to have anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects on tumor cells.Moreover, metformin enhances the T-cell mediated immune response to tumor tissue and fights metastases. Also, epidemiological studies have shown that metformin, but not other antidiabetic drugs, reduces cancer incidence and improves survivability in diabetic cancer patients. The proposed research in this application will investigate two prime questions with regards to the combined use of metformin together with traditional neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. First, the hypothesis that the simultaneous use of metformin along with doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide/paclitaxel neoadjuvant protocol produces better antitumor outcomes will be tested. Second, the study will examine if the improved apoptotic effect of such regimen is paralleled by exaggerated stimulatory influences on apoptosis biomarkers.
This study emphasizes the importance of rehabilitation in breast cancer survivors after mastectomy, even during the course of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, both for good efficacy in reducing pain and for functional recovery of the upper limb. Authors designed a randomized-controlled trial to compare two different rehabilitation protocols: the single rehabilitative treatment (ST) and the group treatment (GT). The study is the first attempt to measure the reaching movement after BC surgery with an optoelectronic evaluation system previously standardized in the neurological field during rehabilitation treatment.
The study is aimed at Evaluation of the potential protective effect of Vitamin D in doxorubucin- induced toxicity in breast cancer patients. Proposal Steps: 1. 100 Patients recruited from Alexandria Main University Hospital (AMUH), Oncology Unit are randomly assigned in to two groups: - Control group (n=50) the patient will receive AC regimen (Doxorubucin & cyclophosphamide) for 4 cycles every 21 day (i.e. 3 months.) - Vitamin D group (n=50) who will receive 4 Cycles AC regimen in addition to vitamin D (Bon One 0.5 microgram®) once daily. 2. Echocardiography (Echo) will be done at base line and at the end of the treatment. 3. Vitamin D, LDH, Troponin-t as well as IL-6 will be assessed at baseline and at the end of the study.
The investigators propose to pilot a program that will evaluate the feasibility of an inpatient screening mammography for non-adherent and high risk hospitalized women age 52-74 admitted to the medicine services at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center and Howard County General Hospital. The two key activities include: inpatient breast care education with educational handouts and offering inpatient screening mammography. Inpatient screening mammography will be offered to non-adherent (last screening mammogram more than 24 months ago) and high risk (Gail 5-year risk of breast cancer 1.6 or greater) women. This pilot program will thus evaluate the feasibility of an inpatient screening mammography as an innovative approach to increase breast cancer screening among non-adherent and high risk women.
