Filter by:Decision-making for treatment of metastatic breast cancer after the second line of chemotherapy was limited by the lack of established predictive factors of benefit for further chemotherapy regimens. Eribulin has emerged as the only single agent demonstrating an overall survival improvement in the third-line setting or beyond. The purpose of this study was to define the clinical profile of metastatic breast cancer participants achieving long-term benefit from chemotherapy with eribulin in the third-line setting or beyond.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pembrolizumab therapy in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have received at least one prior line of therapy.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether a physical activity (exercise) program in the community will improve the functional and overall health status of older women with a history of breast cancer. The physical activity or exercise program is designed for all older breast cancer survivors, and in particular for African-Americans and women of lower socio-economic status, who are the least likely to engage in physical activity.
This is a retrospective, and observational cohort study to determine the proportion of breast cancer first relapses, that are biopsied. The duration of the study will be approximately 24 months.
This is a monocentric, non-inferiority, randomized cohort study with an open 1:1 ratio comparing the impact of iodine seed tumor localization (arm B) vs. standard localization using a metal guide (arm A) on the quality of the surgical resection margins in parallel groups with an interim analysis in patients with breast cancer. Randomization will be performed using histologic status stratification: in situ ductal /invasive lobular +/- an in situ component / invasive ductal +/- an in situ component.
This is a study aimed at testing a commonly available and inexpensive chemical (hydrogen peroxide) for safety and activity in sensitising large cancerous lumps in the breast to a standard course of radiotherapy in women with poorly controlled symptoms. Laboratory research and initial clinical trials in Japan suggest that 4 to 6 injections of a radiation sensitiser ('KORTUC') based on very dilute (0.5%) hydrogen peroxide injected into cancers under local anaesthetic twice a week during radiotherapy greatly increases the effectiveness of standard doses of radiotherapy alone. The side effects are limited to mild/moderate discomfort at the injection site for up to 24 hours reported by Japanese breast cancer patients in whom this treatment has been tested. Complete tumour shrinkage in 70/71 (98%) primary breast cancers up to 5 cm diameter have been reported by Japanese collaborators.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the progression free survival (PFS) of participants treated with the combination of fulvestrant plus daily sapanisertib and fulvestrant plus weekly sapanisertib versus participants treated with single-agent fulvestrant.
Breast cancer treatment often results in long-term arm morbidity. A prospective surveillance model with arm assessment pre-surgery followed by ongoing surveillance and targeted physiotherapy treatment after breast cancer surgery may improve early detection and management of arm morbidity. This study aims to determine the effect of prospective surveillance to target physiotherapy on the prevalence of arm morbidity in the surveillance group compared to control group at 12-months after breast cancer surgery.
The proposed study is a multicenter, open-label phase I trial, conducted in locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer HER2 negative patients and divided into 2 parts: - STEP 1: a dose escalation part (n= up to 30) to evaluate the safety profile and pharmacokinetics and to define the MTD and RP2D to recommend in a phase II. - STEP 2: an expansion cohort part to confirm the safety and tolerability of ribociclib and capecitabine association on a longer follow-up, and to obtain preliminary evidence of anti-tumor activity on two expanded cohorts of HR positive and HR negative patients. Up to 14 patients in each cohort, taking into account patients already included in step one at this DL, may be enrolled, for a total of 28 at the RP2D.
Although randomized controlled trials (RCTs) provide evidence of efficacy, generalization of these results to patients in the real-world setting is challenging, given RCTs are conducted in highly selected patient populations. An understanding of the effectiveness of approved cancer therapies in routine clinical practice is essential in order to optimize the management of these patients and to identify treatment and monitoring gaps. This is the first Canadian study to describe real-world treatment patterns/sequencing, effectiveness and monitoring for men and pre/postmenopausal HR+ HER2- advanced breast cancer patients. This registry incorporates an observational prospective cohort design and will enroll 500 men and pre/postmenopausal HR+ HER2- advanced breast cancer women that have been exposed to endocrine therapy (ET) or ET in combination with targeted therapy (TT) including patients receiving CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy combinations..
