500 patients will be prospectively recruited to undergo a fast breast MRI examination. The women will be recruited for the study will meet the following criteria: 1. African American 2. negative DBT examination 11 months prior to recruitment 3. Heterogeneously and Extremely breast densities 4. clinically asymptomatic- no palpable masses, focal thickening or clinically significant discharge. Investigators will identify these patients EPIC database utilizing the date of their last mammogram. Interested patients may contact our research coordinators by the phone number provided in the recruitment materials. The study recruitment information will also be shared with referring physicians. Physicians may also directly refer patients to the study.
The PROM Q study aims to compare patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients undergoing mastectomy and immediate implant based breast reconstruction (IBR). This is the commonest form of breast reconstruction and current advances in surgical technology have led to increasing number of patients having implants placed above the pectoral muscle (pre-pectoral), rather than below it (sub-pectoral). This has important benefits for patients including shorter surgery time, quicker recovery, and avoidance of animation deformity (visible muscle twitching of the reconstructed breast) as the pectoral muscle is not divided to cover the implant. However, potential disadvantages include rippling effect as the implant is covered by the skin and subcutaneous tissue only, as well as potentially higher risk of capsule (scar tissue) formation. By utilising a validated questionnaire (BREAST-Q), we will assess for any difference in PROMs between the two groups of patients. The results will provide valuable information for future patients when making an informed decision about their reconstruction options. This questionnaire study will include consecutive patients undergoing mastectomy and immediate IBR for breast cancer as well as for risk reduction at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. The study participants will undergo either pre- or sub-pectoral IBR based on their informed discussion with the clinical team. This is a non-randomised observational study.
This phase III trial compares denosumab to placebo for the prevention of breast cancer in women with a BRCA1 germline mutation. A germline mutation is an inherited gene change which, in the BRCA1 gene, is associated with an increased risk of breast and other cancers. Denosumab is a monoclonal antibody that is used to treat bone loss in order to reduce the risk of bone fractures in healthy people, and to reduce new bone growths in cancer patients whose cancer has spread to their bones. Research has shown that denosumab may also reduce the risk of developing breast cancer in women carrying a BRCA1 germline mutation.
The purpose of this study is to identify the highest tolerable dose of pyrotinib in combination with vinorelbine and to assess the safety and efficacy of the combination in Patients With HER2-Positive Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer. The study will be conducted in two parts. In the first part, testing will be done on up to 12 subjects to determine the highest tolerable dose of pyrotinib and vinorelbine in patients with advanced solid tumors. In the second part of the study, we will explore the safety and efficacy of Pyrotinib + vinorelbine in Patients With HER2-Positive Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer Who Have Received Prior Trastuzumab-Based Therapy. Participants will be treated until disease progression (PD), unmanageable toxicity, or study termination.
Robotic mastectomy and immediate reconstruction have been introduced in 2015. However, since robotic mastectomy is the latest surgical technique, there is a lack of studies prospectively comparing conventional mastectomy and immediate reconstruction with robotic mastectomy. For this reason, this study is designed to establish a single institution cohort study that prospectively collects patients undergoing mastectomy and reconstruction. This study was initially designed as a single institution study, however, currently, the study was extended to the multicenter study including 18 institutions over the country. Using the established prospective cohort data, a comparative study of robotic mastectomy with conventional mastectomy and reconstruction, and cost-effectiveness and satisfaction of robotic endoscopic surgery, and cost-effectiveness and satisfaction of reconstructive surgery are to be analyzed.
To determine the feasibility of cryotherapy for B3 fibroepithelial lesions
It is a prospective, observational cohort study of patients with dense breast tissue. The study was based on the radiomics and other clinicopathological information of patients to establish the diagnostic system for breast disease by using artificial intelligence.
Benign diseases of the breast are common clinical conditions that affect young women. Complaints related to the breast often cause significant discomfort and mental stress. The following study will try to identify the risk factors that may be associated with symptomatic benign breast diseases. Identification of such factors may help preventing and / or treating these conditions.
The investigators will evaluate the analgesic efficacy of pulsed radiofrequency on the thoracic paravertebral nerves for patients with chronic mastalgia of fibrocystic disease of the breast
