Filter by:INTRODUCTION: Breast cancer is one of the pathologies affecting women worldwide, with a high mortality rate of 14,206 per 100,000 women per year. However, Pilates was used as a therapeutic treatment for women who underwent a modified radical mastectomy, being associated with the alterations when in the postoperative sequels. OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the Pilates Method in the functionality of women submitted to modified radical mastectomy. METHOD: This is a quantitative clinical trial, in the form of women included in the project, to undergo a physical therapy rehabilitation program through the Pilates Method for 2 months, where they were evaluated before and after the procedure for measurement and comparison obtained. CONCLUSION: In this way, the pilates method is presented as an instrument used for the rehabilitation of mastectomized women.
Breast cancer, the first female cancer, affects one in eight women in her lifetime. The increase and unequal distribution of its prevalence throughout the world, regardless of age and genetic factors (< 10% of cases), observations in migrant women and the increased risk in women who have been exposed in utero to diethylstilbestrol, suggest the involvement of environmental factors that can act very early in development, such as persistent chemical pollutants (POPs) that are endocrine disrupting (EP) acting via nuclear receptors. But the demonstration of the deleterious role of such exposure to chemical pollutants is confronted epidemiologically with methodological difficulties: the correlation is most often sought at the time of cancer discovery when the critical windows of exposure are for the breast, fetus, perinatal, peri-advertising or pregnant and a single pollutant is usually measured, whereas they can be potentiated ("cocktail effect"). The objective of this project is therefore to assess the risk related to pre- and per-gravidic exposure to a range of POPs families (dioxins, dioxin-like, PolyChlorinated Bysphenyls PCBs, flame-retardant polybrominated compounds, waterproofing perfluorinated compounds and several organochlorine pesticides), to develop breast cancer within 15 years of delivery, taking into account the conventional risk factors for breast cancer. This project benefits from a historical bio-bank of 6242 cord blood, an indirect reflection of the pre and per-gravidic maternal exposure, a bank set up between 2002 and 2005, during a PHRC at the Nice University Hospital, frozen and stored under strict and regulatory conditions, declared to the CNIL, and the Cancer Observatory / CRISAP of the PACA-Corsica region, with an exhaustive register of over 92% since 2005, and containing the main characteristics of cancer. The cross-referencing of these two registers (biobanks and CRISAP), supported by the preliminary feasibility study (155 cases of cancer expected, 35% of controls lost to follow-up or opposed to participation), makes it possible to consider a prospective case-control study nested in the cohort of mothers included in the bio-bank. It will therefore be investigated whether women parturient women of this period who had the highest levels of POPs cord blood between 2002 and 2005 had a higher risk of developing breast cancer than those who had the lowest levels, taking into account other known risk factors. The assays will be carried out by LABERCA in Nantes, the national reference laboratory, using gas chromatography/high-resolution mass spectrometry coupling. Blood lipid concentrations will be described in quartile and analyzed in continuous values, alone or in combination with a cumulative score, in N=140 cases and 2N=280 controls, matched for age and parity at birth by random drawing, sample required for 80% power, risk 5% OR at 2, frequency of exposure>70%. The investigators propose to develop a predictive model of breast cancer occurrence based on exposure to endocrine disrupters measured during pregnancy by adjusting for known breast cancer risk factors. These conditions should provide information on the possible association of exposure to POPs present in the domestic environment during critical pre- and per-gravidic periods and the risk of breast cancer and reinforce the relevance of preventive measures recently recommended during pre-conceptional and/or pre-natal consultations.
This study will test the use of a web-enabled app that is integrated directly with patients' electronic health records, with and without tailored feedback. The app-based intervention is designed to improve patient-provider communication outside of clinic visits, resulting in improved symptom management and adjuvant endocrine therapy adherence among diverse patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. The researchers will evaluate the impact of the intervention on a comprehensive set of outcomes, including rigorous measures of long-term adherence, quality of life, and costs.
The purpose of this study was to determine if occupational therapy informed yoga could decrease barriers to occupational engagement in African American breast cancer survivors.
This is a multicenter, international, double-blind randomized Phase III study to evaluate the pathological complete response (pCR) according to Chevalier classification between Fulvestrant® and the combination of Fulvestrant® plus Palbociclib as neoadjuvant therapy of hormone-sensitive patients with operable luminal breast cancer. Eligible patients will be assessed upfront using the OncotypeDX® molecular test (Recurrence Score <31).
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate real-world safety and efficacy of pegfilgrastim (Neulasta) administered as secondary prophylaxis in Korean female patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy regimens recently covered under national health insurance. This is a prospective, observational, open-label trial with a target enrollment of 1400 subjects. Primary endpoint The primary aim of this study is to determine the incidence of febrile neutropenia. Secondary endpoint Major secondary endpoint include a) Incidence of bone pain, b) All adverse events, c) Percentage of patients with RDI (relative dose intensity) ≥ 85%
Late effects of breast cancer treatment are widely reported including deteriorating fitness, fatigue, loss of muscle and bone mass, and increased body fat percentage. Exercise interventions may ameliorate a number of these effects including fatigue, fitness and improve quality of life. However only limited knowledge exists on the potential of novel interventions and settings, such as sports outside the hospital setting, to improve late effects of breast cancer treatment. The 'Football Fitness After Breast Cancer' (FF ABC) study is a randomized trial comparing the effects of a football training intervention with standard treatment approaches on fitness, bone mineralization, body composition, muscle strength, blood pressure, and patient-reported outcomes in women treated for breast cancer.
Population-based randomized controlled trial carried out in two Swedish counties, Dalarna and Ostergotland to find out the impact of early detection on mortality from breast cancer.
Breast PET may be able to help in the diagnostic pathway in patients to determine which ones need to go on to have a second look ultrasound +/- biopsy and those who need to be sent for MRI guided biopsy. This may reduce the need to create more anxiety and uncertainty in this group of patients, already extremely stressed by the recent diagnosis of breast cancer.This study involves a single trial visit the Royal Free Hospital for imaging. Participants will need to lie flat for up to 30 minutes on the PET-CT camera and up to 30 minutes on the MAMMI. They will be advised not to take part in this study if they are unable to lie flat on their back and their front for this length of time or if they are claustrophobic. They will be offered the opportunity to see the PET-CT scanner and the MAMMI before deciding to consent to the trial.
There is no consensus regarding which alternative is the best anesthesia for breast surgery, general anesthesia and morphine for postoperative analgesia or a combination of regional anesthesia and general anesthesia that possibly attenuates or abolishes the need for morphine. The current study aims to determine which of the two strategies that is best in relation to postoperative pain, nausea and risk of recurrence of the disease.
