Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether a supervised exercise-training program, initiated prior to chemotherapy induction (pre-conditioning) and continued throughout chemotherapy treatment, can preserve short- and long-term cardiovascular performance, skeletal muscle function, cognitive ability and quality of life better than current standard or care recommendations for exercise during chemotherapy.
Adjuvant chemotherapy with the protocol 3 cure of 5-FU + Epirubicine + Cyclophosphamide (FEC100) and 3 cure of Taxotere is a standard treatment in the management of patients with breast cancer and in adjuvant situation. The efficacy of 3 FEC100 and 3 Taxotere protocol in adjuvant situation for women treated for breast cancer is associated with several invalidating side effects for the quality of life of patients. 92% of women treated will present gastrointestinal toxicities of any grade. 11% will present nausea and vomiting of grade 3-4. Current treatments to prevent these gastrointestinal toxicities include Emend from Day 1 to Day 3 in association with setrons at Day 1 and corticosteroids from Day 1 to Day 3. Despite the marked improvement in gastrointestinal toxicities with preventive treatments, 83% of patients would use alternatives medicine: homeopathy, herbal medicine, acupuncture, hypnotherapy and / or osteopathy. Osteopathy is a method of care and unconventional therapeutic approach. In France, the professional title of osteopath is recognized. It aims to prevent and treat functional disorders, especially those related to adverse effects of treatment. In oncology, this discipline may have additional support for the patient by limiting the mechanical and physical constraints of sensitive areas to the toxicity of the treatment. In the case of gastrointestinal toxicities of myofascial and musculoskeletal techniques are used in abdominal areas to relieve symptoms. The investigators hypothesis is that osteopathy could have an interest in the management of gastrointestinal toxicities related to chemotherapy in women with breast cancer and in adjuvant treatment situation.
This study aims to improve relationship, psychological, and physical adjustment among young breast cancer survivors (YBCS; diagnosed at age 45 or younger) and their committed/life partners. A mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) intervention has been designed to meet the specific needs for young breast cancer survivors and their partners. The intervention will be administered in your home by using recorded videos of a trained MBSR instructor. Before, during, and after the 8-week intervention, participants will be asked to complete surveys.
Because neoplastic disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide and breast cancer is one of the most frequent neoplasia among women, the possibility of influencing the evolution of patients starting from the moment of surgical intervention using a perianesthesic intervention is a scientific topic of high interest. The study will compare two anesthetic techniques and their efficiency in lowering the factors that can favorize the dissemination of neoplasia and their role in the prevention of postoperative pain. The serum level of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) will be determined before and after the surgical intervention after using two different types of anesthesia (inhalational and intravenous), and the immunohistochemical expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR) will be determined on the excised tissue. For the two different types of anesthesia a continuous infusion of lidocaine 1% will be associated. The study will compare the short-term and long term-outcome of the patients assigned the two different types of anesthesia and their immediate postoperative evolution .
This is a mono-center, open-label, phase 1 study evaluating the humanized anti-PD-1 antibody JS001, as a monotherapy in patients with triple negative breast cancer who have failed in routine systemic treatment. The study will be conducted in 2 parts: dose escalation and cohort expansion to investigate tolerability and efficacy.
Our study is a prospective, non-inferior, randomized phase II clinical trial, to compare the efficacy and safety profiles of DA versus DAC as adjuvant chemotherapy regimens for early-stage breast cancer patients.
Many patients receiving radiation therapy for breast cancer experience fatigue although doctors do not fully understand why. The purpose of this study is to test if patients who experience fatigue during radiation treatment for breast cancer have changes in their capability to perform exercise on a treadmill.
Compare synthetic mammography+digital breast tomosynthesis (SM+DBT) with digital mammography (DM) as a screening tool for women aged 50-69 years, invited to participate in the Norwegian Breast Cancer Screening Program at the screening unit in Bergen, Norway, with regard to early performance measures, including prognostic and predictive tumor characteristics, radiation doses and cost-effectiveness.
Assess the accuracy of the sequential measurements by 3D Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) for predicting histological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced breast cancer.
This is a Phase Ib/II study assessing the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), and efficacy of L-NMMA when combined with docetaxel in refractory locally advanced or metastatic triple negative breast cancer patients. The Phase Ib portion of the study is designed to investigate the combination at two dose levels of docetaxel (75 and 100 mg/m2) and 7 dose levels of L-NMMA (5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 17.5, and 20 mg/kg). The starting dose of L-NMMA will be 7.5 mg/kg. In the Phase II portion of the study, the starting dose will be the RP2D determined in the Phase Ib portion of the study.
