Filter by:The purpose of this study is to find out if adding vericiguat to standard treatment for cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is more effective than standard treatment alone. The addition of vericiguat to the usual treatment could help improve cardiac function, but it could also cause side effects. This study will help researchers find out whether this different treatment is better, the same as, or worse than the usual approach.
This study is a single-center,blinded, efficacious, phase III randomized clinical trial initiated by investigators. The primary objective is to investigate the use of Surface Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT) in combination with Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) technique for left breast cancer treatment, compared to traditional laser alignment with free breathing treatment. This approach offers superior positioning accuracy and improved heart protection without any increase in radiation or adverse reactions.
The combination of epirubicin-cyclophosphamide (EC) and paclitaxel (Tax) is one of the main chemotherapy treatments used in breast cancer patients. These treatments, which can be combined with anti-HER2 therapy using trastuzumab, are frequently associated with side effects including cardiac toxicity. However, this cardiac toxicity has only been demonstrated several months after treatment and using global indices such as ejection fraction. The assessment of myocardial dysfunction using regional deformations and the kinetic of this dysfunction during chemotherapy treatment has never been performed. In order to counteract these myocardial dysfunctions, it is essential to better describe the kinetic of the cardiac toxicity by initiating measurements since the beginning of the treatment, in order to be able to propose adapted countermeasures (e.g. exercise training) in parallel with the chemotherapy.
The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of BCD-178 and Perjeta as neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer. Subjects with histologically confirmed diagnosis of HER2-positive invasive breast cancer (stage II-III, tumor size > 2 cm), with no estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptors will be randomized to one of two treatment groups (BCD-178 group or Perjeta group) in a 1:1 ratio.
In this single arm, open label, phase 2 trial, operable patients with stage II-III HR+/HER2+ breast cancer will be enrolled and receive two cycles of pyrotinib combined with trastuzumab, dalpiciclib and letrozole. Imaging evaluation was performed two weeks later, and patients who achieved CR or PR were continued with the original regimen for 4 cycles. Subjects who did not achieve PR switched to regimen and received 4 cycles of pyrotinib combined with trastuzumab plus chemotherapy. This study aims to assessed the biological effects and safety of pyrotinib combined with trastuzumab, dalpiciclib and letrozole for HR+/HER2+ breast cancer in the neoadjuvant setting.
Neoadjuvant Endocrine Therapy for pre- and postmenopausal women with T4 Nany or TanyN2-3 estrogen receptor (ER) -positive, progrsteron receptor (PR) -positive and HER2 negative breast cancer. Real Clinical Practice in Russia.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare, for the second reading of screening mammograms, the standard of care with an AI assisted scenario. The main questions it aims to answer are: - will the experimental pathway be non-inferior to the standard pathway? - will the experimental pathway be economically superior to the standard pathway? Participants will receive screening mammograms, as part of the breast cancer screening program. Researchers will compare the interpretation made by the second reader in the standard pathway with the AI assisted interpretation made by a different reader in the experimental pathway.
Primary care visits are a key aspect of clinical care focused on helping patients to close care gaps related to preventive care such as vaccination, diabetes testing, statin therapy and cancer screening. However, less than 50% of care gaps are closed during these visits and new approaches are needed to prime patients for a discussion during these visits. In this study, the study team will evaluate a health system initiative that uses text messaging to patients in days preceding a primary care visit to prime patients to be amenable to ordering of vaccination, diabetes testing, cancer screening, and statin prescribing.
The management of patients diagnosed with breast cancer (BC) with axillary nodal involvement is still a controversial topic. These patients' treatment usually involves the administration of a neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in order to improve survival rates and increase local disease control. Depending on the tumor subtype, an axillary pathologic complete response (pCR) is achieved in 40-70% of initially axillary node-positive patients (cN+). Concerning patients with an axillary pCR, thus a clinically negative node status (cN0), axillary lymphadenectomy (ALND) might be replaced by less invasive surgical approaches and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is considered, in these cases, an effective alternative treatment. However, the relatively high false negative rates, reported in several validation trials, points out the complexity concerning these patients' treatment. Moreover, histological findings' predictive and prognostic value, after SLNB, of micrometastases and isolated tumor cells (ITCs) is still unclear. Currently, dual-tracer-guided lymph node biopsy and the surgical removal of ≥ 3 sentinel lymph nodes are known as effective strategies aimed to reduce the false negative rates. There are several ongoing clinical trials to understand and define the best approach for these patients. Nowadays, there's great interest in potential prognostic role of systemic inflammation's biochemical markers such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). Systemic inflammation's markers may be nodal pCR's predictors after NAC in node-positive breast cancer patients. The aim of the study is to develop and validate a pre-operative model, able to predict pCR after NAC to select the patients suitable for a surgery de-escalation strategy.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited particles, naturally released from cells and mediators of intercellular cross-talk. In breast cancer (BC), EVs seem to be involved in the tumor microenvironment's shaping, in cancer cells invasion and in the set-up of metastasis. Clinical studies have provided initial evidence that these vesicles may have a prognostic and predictive value in breast cancer. Considering their ubiquitous presence in body fluids and their minimally invasive assessment through blood sampling, EVs could have a potential as liquid biopsy-derived biomarkers. Their quantification though is a complex task requiring complicated and time-consuming pre-analytical procedures of EVs isolation. This protocol want to develop a new method for the detection of tumor-derived-EVs associated proteins, based on the use of Single Molecule Array (SiMoA), a digital ELISA technology able to detect and quantify extremely low concentrations of target proteins or particles. The aim of this study is to evaluate how this new technology can allow the quantification of EVs plasma levels in patients affected by BC, providing useful diagnostic and prognostic information.
