Filter by:The purpose of this study is to describe the demographic and clinical profiles of patients with early-stage HER2+ breast cancer treated with neratinib as an extended adjuvant therapy as part of the Early Access Program (EAP) in Europe.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of elacestrant over the course of 6 months in patients with ER+/HER2- advanced/metastatic breast cancer who received no prior CDK4/6i in the metastatic setting.
The purpose of this research is to test whether participating in either a physical activity intervention or a series of educational classes will help to preserve exercise capability, heart function, brain-based activities (like memory), and quality of life. Participants will be randomized to 1 of 2 pathways: - First pathway consists of organized health workshops. These workshops are intended to provide information on topics such as proper nutrition, management of stress, sleep practices, and emphasis on a healthy lifestyle that may help the participants through cancer treatment. This pathway will also test whether stretching may help participants through cancer treatment. - Second pathway participants will take part in some unsupervised and some potentially supervised moderate activity sessions each week throughout participants' cancer treatment to take place either remotely or in person, depending on availability of facilities at the time visits are scheduled.
This phase II trial tests whether fisetin works to improve physical function in women who have received chemotherapy for stage I-III breast cancer treatment. Fisetin is a naturally occurring substance that is found in strawberries and other foods. Fisetin eliminates cells that have undergone a process called senescence. Senescence is when a cell ages and permanently stops dividing but does not die. Over time, large numbers of these cells build up in tissues throughout the body and can release harmful substances that causes inflammation and damages nearby healthy cells. Studies have shown that chemotherapy causes a build-up of these senescent cells. Giving fisetin may eliminate senescent cells and improve physical function in postmenopausal women who have received chemotherapy for breast cancer.
According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 108 patients were enrolled and randomly divided into control group (n = 56) and intervention group (n = 52). The control group received routine nursing, while the intervention group received upper limb lymphedema prevention program for breast cancer patients after surgery. Before surgery, at the third chemotherapy (about 2.1 months after surgery) and the sixth chemotherapy (about 4.2 months after surgery), the self-designed general information questionnaire was used to investigate the patient's basic situation, and the corresponding tools were used to measure the volume of the patient's upper arm, the grip strength of the affected arm, and the range of motion of the affected shoulder joint.
Aim of the work This study aims to evaluate the possible beneficial role of silymarin in attenuating both doxorubicin related cardiac and hepatic toxicities and paclitaxel associated peripheral neuropathy and improving cognitive impairment in patients with breast cancer. This study will be a randomized placebo controlled parallel study. The study will be performed in accordance with the ethical standards of Helsinki declaration in 1964 and its later amendments. Group one: (Placebo group; n=28) which will receive four cycles of AC regimen (doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide; each cycle was given every 21 day) followed by 12 cycles of paclitaxel (each cycle was given in a weekly basis) plus placebo tablets once daily. Group two: (Silymarin group; n=28) which will receive the same regimen plus silymarin 140mg once daily
For breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant radiotherapy, radiation dermatitis (RD) is a common occurrence that can negatively impact patients' quality of life (QOL). RD often presents as erythema, pruritus, and/or edema and in more severe cases, skin breakage can occur, resulting in moist desquamation. StrataXRT is a silicone-based film-forming topical gel. Recent studies have shown the benefits of StrataXRT, but with mixed results. A recent randomized controlled trial published in 2022 found that in breast cancer patients (n=100), the use of StrataXRT significantly reduced the mean size of the radiation-induced dermatitis area (p=0.002) when compared to the control group. Additionally, another study (n=49) demonstrated significant differences in the Erythema Index (EI) (p=0.001) and Melanin Index (MI) (p=0.005) between StrataXRT compared to the use of Xderm, a moisturizer cream. To validate the finding of the previous studies a pilot study testing the efficacy of StrataXRT has been proposed. In this study, 50 patients will use Strata XRT on their breast/chest wall during radiation treatment. Their skin will be assessed throughout and post-treatment. Investigators hypothesize the severity of skin reactions will be less for patients using Strata XRT when compared to historical data from our centre.
The purpose of this study is to establish a prospective, single-center platform research based on clinical subtypes to explore precision therapy in patients hormone-receptor-positive HER2-negative advanced breast cancer who had previously used CDK4/6 inhibitors.
The aim of this trial is to explore the real-world effectiveness and poteintial predictors in Chinese metastatic breast cancer patients.
Breast-conserving surgery followed by re-irradiation with partial breast irradiation (rPBI) has recently been found to be a safe alternative to mastectomy for women who have undergone prior whole breast radiation. By reducing the volume of tissue receiving radiation, rPBI has been associated with less toxicity and improved cosmetic outcomes. For many women with early stage breast cancer, shorter 1-week (5-fraction) courses of breast radiation (ultra-fractionation) have been found to be equivalent to longer fractionation schedules in the upfront treatment setting. These 1-week schedules are more convenient for patients, with fewer treatments and shorter overall treatment time. The investigators hypothesize that they can accrue sufficient patient with rPBI who will be treated using 26 Gray(Gy) in 5 daily fractions over 1-week. Planned interim analysis after the 15 recruited patients for early toxicity evaluation with stopping rule for unacceptable toxicity.
