Filter by:This is an open-label Phase I study of single-agent trastuzumab emtansine administered by intravenous (IV) infusion. The study will characterize the pharmacokinetics of trastuzumab emtansine and its relevant analytes and the safety of trastuzumab emtansine in Chinese participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive locally advanced/metastatic breast cancer (LA/MBC).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral administration of Boswellia causes biological changes in primary tumors of breast cancer patients.
About 5% of breast cancers are metastatic at diagnosis and 20-30% of localized breast cancer become secondarily metastatic.Thanks to recent therapeutic advances, the median survival ranges between 12 months in 1970 and 18 to 24 months in 2000. However, patients suffer from many detrimental symptoms such as fatigue, pain related to treatment and metastasis. The physical, biological, psychological and clinical benefits of physical activity (PA) during treatment in patients with localized breast cancer have been widely demonstrated. Numerous studies investigated the effect of PA in non-metastatic breast cancer, but to our knowledge, only four interventional studies worldwide focused on the implementation of PA in patients with metastatic breast cancer.It seems appropriate to investigate the feasibility of PA intervention with patients with metastatic breast cancer to see if the observed effects in localized breast cancer are confirmed in metastatic breast cancer population. The ABLE study is an interventional cohort designed to assess the feasibility of a 6-month adapted physical activity intervention, performed under real life conditions in patients with metastatic breast cancer.
This is an observational trial designed to assess prospectively the adherence rate to AIs among women with invasive breast cancer (stages I-III) currently receiving AI adjuvant therapy after standard local and systemic therapy. We will study adherence by administrating the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS - 8).
Both TCH (docetaxel/carboplatin/trastuzumab) and EC followed by TH(epirubicin/cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxe plus trastuzumab) regimens as Neoadjuvant Treatment for HER2-Positive Breast Cancer have been recommended by NCCN guideline. It is unknown which regimen is better. This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TCH (docetaxel/carboplatin/trastuzumab) and EC followed by TH(epirubicin/cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxe plus trastuzumab) regimens as Neoadjuvant Treatment in HER2-Positive breast cancer. The endpoint of pathologic complete response is used as a surrogate marker for survival. Safety and tolerability assessed by number of grade 4 toxicities and hospitalizations.
The investigators hypothesize that the administration of pembrolizumab combined to metronomic cyclophosphamide may be an interesting therapeutic option for female patients breast cancer with lymphopenia. Include only patients with breast cancer with lymphopenia is based on the particularly poor prognosis of these patients. The approach suggested here is to deplete and active the immune response of these immunosuppressed patients. The combination of pembrolizumab and cyclophosphamide would provide a higher gain in anti-tumor response in these patients than in those without lymphopenia and in chemotherapy alone. The investigators proposal is to conduct a multicentric, non-comparative, single arm, two-stage, Phase II trial in lymphopenic patients with metastatic breast cancer. The study is divided in 2 parts: - a safety run-in Phase aiming to evaluate the safety of the combination therapy pembrolizumab + metronomic cyclophosphamide based on the occurrence of severe toxicities. - a two-stage Phase II aiming to evaluate the clinical activity of the combination therapy pembrolizumab + metronomic cyclophosphamide. In both parts of the study, patients will receive cyclophosphamide (50 mg/day, daily, per os) and pembrolizumab (200 mg every 3 weeks, intravenously [IV]). The adverse events of the two drugs are well known.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well ultrasound works in detecting taxane-induced neuropathy in patients with breast cancer. Ultrasound may work better in diagnosing and detecting neuropathy in breast cancer patients treated with the chemotherapy drug called a taxane.
What Matters Most is a study that aims to determine how best to help women of lower socioeconomic status make high-quality decisions about early stage breast cancer treatments. What Matters Most will be comparing two decision aids used in the clinic visit to usual care (what normally happens in the clinic). The first decision aid (Option Grid) presents evidence-based information about lumpectomy and mastectomy in a tabular format using text only. The second decision aid (Picture Option Grid) presents evidence-based information about lumpectomy and mastectomy using pictures, pictographs and simplified text. What Matters Most aims to show that the interventions can reduce disparities in decision-making and treatment choice between women of high and low SES.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of a fixed dose of SPI-2012 in patients with early-stage breast cancer receiving docetaxel and cyclophosphamide (TC) chemotherapy, as measured by the serum concentration of SPI-2012 on specific days following drug administration.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well provider training works in increasing patient tobacco cessation counseling and referrals for patients with cancer undergoing radiation therapy. Health care provider training in motivational interviewing techniques and utilizing tobacco cessation resources may help doctors understand how health care providers can effectively increase their confidence in talking to patients about tobacco cessation counseling.
