Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to obtain de-identified, clinically characterized, whole blood specimens to evaluate biomarkers associated with cancer for diagnostic assay development.
In patients with cancer induced bone pain, addition of Syndros will improve pain relief and decrease opioid requirement.
Patients who underwent modified radical mastectomy were enrolled in the study. 200 subjects were randomly divided into 4 groups: 7 days postoperative shoulder isotonic training + 4 weeks postoperative progressive resistance training group, postoperative 7 Isometric training for the shoulder joint + progressive resistance training for 3 weeks after surgery group, 3 days postoperative isotope training + 4 weeks postoperative progressive resistance training group, 3 days postoperative shoulder isotonic training + postoperative 3 Weekly progressive resistance training group. The effects of interventional rehabilitation at different time points on the recovery of shoulder function after breast cancer operation were observed. The results of the study will provide evidence-based evidence for the time point of intervention in early functional exercise after modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer.
This phase 1 trial studies how well Blossom Smart Expander Technology works in breast reconstruction in participants with breast cancer undergoing mastectomy. Blossom Smart Expander Technology allows for slow and continuous injection of small amounts of saline, from an external pouch and based on precise pressure and volume measurements, into breast expander implants. It may help in achieving the same reconstructive goals as conventional tissue expansion in a shorter period of time and while avoiding frequent injections through the skin, which cause patient discomfort and require many clinic visits.
The investigators will compare whether patients will have better pain control if they were to receive (PEC I/II block) before surgery or after mastectomy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefits of a Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program for psycho-immune dysregulation in women newly diagnosed with breast cancer compared to women with breast cancer completing an attention control condition (health education classes). Women will be randomized to either the MBSR or health education classes. They will complete psychometric instruments evaluating psychological outcomes and will provide blood samples for immune outcomes. They will also provide saliva samples for cortisol diurnal rhythm determination. Measures will be done longitudinally pre and post MBSR or health education program. It is hypothesized that MBSR participants will exhibit improved psychological and immunological outcomes over time, as compared to women randomized to the health education classes.
Cancer treatment-induced bone loss and the subsequent risk of fractures in both men and women impacts not just survivors' quality of life, but is also a significant burden on national health care. Clinical studies have reported that moderate-intensity resistance exercises prevent a decline in bone health in female cancer survivors, and that strength training may reduce complications associated with cancer such as fatigue, muscle wasting, and bone loss. Unfortunately, only a small percentage of women who have had cancer, engage in and adhere to a strength training exercise routine. The investigators have developed an internet-based application, Thrivors, that guides cancer survivors through exercise routines with light-to-moderate strength training in the home setting, and connects them to survivorship resources. In this Phase I proposal, the investigators will develop and deploy an enhanced version, Thrivors+BH, that disseminates resistance training exercises specifically impacting bone health (BH), integrated with video-based interactive feedback and tracking of adherence to exercise routines. The goal is to validate Thrivors+BH as a novel tool to bridge the gaps between cancer survivorship, physical activity, value-based care and health care organizations (providers and payers), to positively impact bone health in breast cancer survivors.
Thoracal paravertebral block (TPVB) is a commonly prefferred regional anesthesia technique to provide postoperative analgesia. In addition, the successful use of TPVB is reported for some seroma related pain cases. Postoperative analgesia in breast surgery is a difficult and overworked issue due to etensive surgery and complex innervation of the breast and in addition to this complex mechanisms, seroma accumulation has a negative effect for patients postoperatively. With this study, the investigators aimed to study the effect of TPVB on seroma reduction for breast cancer surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine if new methods of MRI imaging can better measure participants' response to chemotherapy treatment.
This is a phase II open-label, multicentre, randomized trial. The study assesses the treatment of postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor positive/HER2 positive early breast cancer with neoadjuvant palbociclib in combination with hormonal therapy and HER2 blockade, versus the treatment with paclitaxel in combination with HER2 blockade.
