Filter by:The purpose of the trial is to investigate the efficacy of metronomic treatment with daily oral vinorelbine in terms of clinical benefit rate based on local radiological assessment in patients with advanced/metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer resistant to endocrine therapy.
The investigators propose to conduct a study to test an alternative dosing schedule of palbociclib. With the current three-week on and one week off schedule, a significant number of patients develop grade 3 or higher degree of neutropenia and require dose reduction and sometimes discontinuation. This potentially compromises the efficacy of the drug. In addition, as the half-life of palbociclib is 27 hours, 1 week break with the standard 3 weeks on and 1 week off dosing schedule could potentially lead to recovery of Rb phosphorylation during the off week. Hence, the investigators propose a 5 days on and 2 days off schedule each week without any weeks off drug. Although the cumulative doses each 28-day cycle is roughly the same with this schedule compared to conventional dosing, the bone marrow is not exposed to the drug continuously for 21 days and rather gets frequent breaks from therapy. The investigators hypothesize that the 5 days on and 2 days off schedule is more tolerable with less frequent high grade neutropenia and dose interruption/reduction. In addition, this schedule also provides for a more continuous drug delivery to the patient since there is not a week's break in therapy, which could ultimately prove to be more efficacious.
The purpose of this study is to enhance the care of older metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients by increasing awareness among oncology providers as to the unique aspects of care required for older patients. The goal of the study is to educate providers on the utility of geriatric assessment in guiding therapy of older metastatic breast cancer patients. The investigators will also assess the feasibility and benefit of incorporating geriatric self-assessments into clinical practice. The study will include three phases.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of short-term treatment with darolutamide on breast cancer cells (i.e., how the treatment may change the genes or proteins in breast cancer cells) and to evaluate its safety and the way it is tolerated by subjects. The intent is to study these changes in order to have a better understanding of the potential use of darolutamide for women with EBC, know which patients are likely or unlikely to respond to this treatment, and determine how darolutamide may be combined with other anti-cancer drugs.
This is a Phase II trial to determine the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and in situ oncolytic virus therapy used as a window of opportunity treatment before pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In situ oncolytic virus therapy will consist of adenovirus-mediated expression of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (ADV/HSV-tk) plus valacyclovir therapy.
The investigators will compare the operated patients for a beginning breast cancer in the Hypnose arm and the patient in the classical general anesthesia arm. It is a Observational study as we cannot randomized patient, (they need to be compliant with Hypnose). Patient will be informed that some parameters, about his recovery, will be collected from their medical file. They will not have another particular treatment because they are in the study. It is just a prospective data collection. The patient will be compared on several items after the surgery ( as pain and pain killer intake, the heal process of the scar, etc...) Also the investigators will compare the impact of hypnose on the other treatments the patient received. The investigators need approximately 150 patients (Half in each arm).
By this non-randomized prospective study, it's evaluated the outcome of patients underwent BCS for DCIS at whom an established score system to address adjuvant therapies have been prospectively applied, according to the wideness of free margins. Between March 2000 and April 2006, 224 patients were enrolled and followed within the study.
Each year in France, breast cancer affects about 48,000 women and is the first cause of cancer death in women with 11,900 deaths estimated. Since 2004, there is a national organized breast cancer screening (OBCS) programme for asymptomatic women aged 50-74 and with a medium-risk. Every two years, the local cancer screening department sends a personalized invitation mail to eligible women to perform a mammogram and a breast clinical examination. One to two reminder mails are sent to women who have not done the screening after an initial invitation. Despite this programme, almost 47% of women in France do not participate to organized breast cancer screening. The Short Message Service (SMS) is an innovative communication tool in the field of health, immediate, reliable delivery, low cost and ecological. The use of SMS could be an innovative, low-cost, personalized and ecological way to support the OBCS invitation strategy. The overall objective of this study is to preserve or even better increase participation in organized breast cancer screening while decreasing the associated costs by including SMS in our screening invitation procedure. Two SMS interventions will be tested which will correspond to different phases of the OBCS invitation procedure. This sequence of interventions leads us to perform three interlinked trials: a trial of superiority for the first phase (intervention 1: sending an SMS a few days before the initial mail invitation), then two non-inferiority trials for the second phase ( two trials=one for each context of phase 1 _ intervention 2: sending an SMS in place of the first postal reminder).
The purpose of this study is to seeking a molecular signature of pathological radiation induced fibrosis based on the response of skin fibroblasts after irradiation, comparing two groups of patients distinguished by their individual radiosensitivity. The signature will integrate recent insights in terms of alternative splicing of mRNAs and level of expression of non-coding RNAs, particularly long non-coding RNAs, snRNAs, snoRNAs and microRNAs. In each group each expression patterns of candidate HSP proteins potentially predictive of pathological radiation induced fibrosis (HSP27, HSP70, αβ crystalline) in the serum and on cell culture will be characterized.
Twenty-seven breast cancer women without heart failure, underwent CMR imaging (3T-Achieva, Philips) before and 3 times serially after 4-cycles of adjuvant DOX (60mg/m2). CMR assessed left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF), T1 mapping pre and post gadolinium and late gadolinium enhancement imaging. Biomarkers were obtained before and 72 hours after each DOX-cycle.
