Filter by:The goal of this study is to evaluate the relative benefits of an intervention to promote breast cancer screening among women in the White Mountain Apache (WMA) community. Women will be randomized to receive CARE, a culturally tailored mammography education module, or CARE+COACH, which is the CARE education module plus access to an Apache paraprofessional women's health coach (i.e., patient navigator). The CARE intervention was developed through a community-based participatory research process. The primary outcome is mammography uptake within 2 months of a referral.
Women aged 70 years or older, newly diagnosed for locally advanced unilateral breast cancer, with a histological diagnosis of invasive mammary carcinoma, positive hormone receptors, HER2 status Negative, not immediately operable (stage of disease, comorbidities or refusal of surgery) with tumor in place, with indication of treatment with hormone therapy and hypofractionated radiotherapy, not eligible for neoadjuvant chemotherapy and without major comorbidity contraindicating the proposed treatment regimen.
Double-blind Superiority Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial. Objective of the study: To evaluate the effectiveness of photobiomodulation using the LED board in the prevention of peripheral neuropathy in the lower limbs in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy at the Cancer Hospital III of the National Cancer Institute (HCIII/INCA).
Sentinel lymph node biopsy is important for staging in patients with breast cancer and changes the way of surgery. One of the most commonly used methods to find the sentinel lymph node during surgery is to apply blue dye around the areola and then search for the sentinel lymph node. Breast massage is recommended following administration of the blue dye. However, the necessity of this massage is controversial. In this study, investigators will try to find out whether massage of the breast after blue dye injection has any positive effect on finding the sentinel lymph node.
Preoperative identification of patients with pathologic complete response or residual disease in axilla can aid in tailoring subsequent axillary surgery including omission of axillary surgery based on tumor biology and response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
ACT-MBC prospectively assesses the impact of CTCs on treatment decisions, response assessment and prognosis in MBC patients.
In the present prospective study, we will analyze the outcome of image-guided delivery of intra-arterially infused chemotherapeutic drugs for patients with breast cancer in III, IV stages.
The goal of this randomised comparison study is to compare different bandage interface pressures in individuals with breast cancer related lymphedema The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is high or low bandage pressure effective in reducing edema and soft tissue thickness? - do bandages applied with high or low bandage pressure comprimise sleep, comfort or subjective benefit from treatment? Participants will recieve complex decongestive physiotherapy. Bandage will apply high or low pressure. Effects of high and low bandage interface pressures will compare
This is a research study to test the safety and effectiveness of using the drug alpelisib together with chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel) and a drug called L-NMMA in patients with HER2 negative metastatic or locally advanced metaplastic breast cancer, who have not responded to previous treatments. Participants in this study in addition to the standard care chemotherapy will also receive the drug alpelisib and L-NMMA. The therapies will be administered every 3 weeks (1 cycle) until disease progression, toxicity or until the participant withdraws from the study. The nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of the 3 week cycles. Participants will take the drug alpelisib by mouth once daily at a dose determined by a safety study and the drug L-NMMA will be given intravenously on days 1 to 5 of the 3 week cycles.
Patients with newly diagnosed primary estrogen-receptor (ER) positive breast cancer, with at least one breast lesion that is 1.0 cm in diameter or greater, may be eligible for this study. Patients may participate in this study if they are at least 18 years of age. Up to 20 evaluable subjects will participate in a single imaging cohort. Study subjects will undergo imaging of the breast with a novel device combining dedicated Breast Positron Emission Tomography (BPET) and Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) following intravenous injection of [18F]-Fluoroestradiol (FES). This is an observational study; FES-BPET/DBT will not be used to direct treatment decisions. While patients and referring physicians will not be blinded to the FES-BPET/DBT results, treatment decisions are made by the treating physicians based upon standard clinical imaging.
