Filter by:This study will examine the safety and efficacy of pertuzumab in combination with high-dose trastuzumab in adult participants with HER2-positive MBC with CNS metastases and disease progression in the brain following radiotherapy.
Intratumoral plasmid IL-12 electroporation (IT-pIL12-EP) will be administered to approximately 10 patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) with cutaneous or subcutaneous disease. Patients will receive one complete cycle of therapy, consisting of local injection of plasmid IL-12 (pIL-12) followed immediately by electroporation (EP), into accessible tumor lesions. IT-pIL12-EP will be administered in Days 1, 5, and 8 of the single 28-day cycle.
This is a multicenter neoadjuvant trial conducted under the sponsorship and overall trial management of the Fondazione Michelangelo in Italy. Women with a diagnosis of invasive unilateral non metastatic ER-positive breast cancer expressing HER2 and suitable for neoadjuvant therapy Patients in this study will receive: Trastuzumab+Pertuzumab+Palbociclib with or without Fulvestrant (HPPF) Trastuzumab 8 mg/kg loading dose IV, then 6 mg/kg IV q.3 wks (repeat for a total of 6 administrations) Pertuzumab 840 mg loading dose IV, then 420 mg IV q. 3 wks (repeat for a total of 6 administrations) Palbociclib 125 mg po q.d. x 21 q. 4 wks (= 1 cycle; repeat for a total of 5 cycles) Fulvestrant will be given intra-muscle at the dose of 500 mg every 4 weeks (repeat for 5 times) with an additional 500 mg dose given two weeks after the initial dose (total administrations including the additional one = 6) The total duration of neoadjuvant palbociclib (5 cycles every 4 weeks) and fulvestrant (5 administrations every 4 weeks plus the additional dose given two weeks after the initial dose) was selected to match as closely as possible the total duration of the six planned 3-weekly administrations of trastuzumab and pertuzumab Definitive surgery will be performed not earlier than 14 days and not later than 28 days after the last dose of any of the drugs in the combination reported above After completion of the neoadjuvant and surgical treatment patients will receive irradiation as locally acceptable. Patients will also continue to receive systemic drug therapy including chemotherapy (plus standard anti-HER2 treatment until completion of full 1 year if HER2 3+ or neu amplified, i.e. cohorts A and B) and endocrine therapy according to local guidelines at the Investigator's discretion.
"Increasing Access of Latinas into Breast Cancer Clinical Trials" aims to develop and pilot test a multi-communications approach - using a culturally relevant computer video, a tailored booklet and a patient navigator (PN) - to empower Latinas to make informed decisions about breast cancer clinical trials (BCCTs). Latinos represent 15% of the U.S. population but only 5.6% of participants in National Cancer Institute (NCI) treatment clinical trials, resulting in disparities in cancer outcomes and jeopardizing the generalizability of trial findings. In response, this study will develop and evaluate communication and health-system-change strategies to facilitate Latinas' access to BCCTs at the Cancer Therapy and Research Center at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (CTRC-UTHSCSA). The CTRC-UTHSCSA, an NCI-designated Cancer Center located in South Texas, serves a culturally and ethnically diverse population that historically has low participation in clinical trials, especially among those with breast cancer, the No. 1 cancer killer of Latinas.
This observational, multicenter survey is designed to assess the efficacy of oral ibandronate in adults with breast cancer and metastatic bone disease. Data on the use of ibandronate in clinical practice will be collected from Hungarian patients.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of resistive exercise on forearm blood flow and tissue oxygenation among breast cancer survivors with or at risk for breast cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL).
A Phase I, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of F-627 in female breast cancer patients who received up to 4 cycles of Epirubicin and Cyclophosphamide. 18 patients (6 patients each cohort) were assigned to three escalated dose cohorts of 80, 240 and 320 µg/kg.
This is a prospective, non-interventional, single arm study, which is examining doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (AC) once every 2 weeks with lipegfilgrastim support in early breast cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy works in treating patients with breast cancer that has not spread beyond the breast or the axillary lymph nodes (early-stage) after surgery. Radiation therapy uses a type of energy to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Brachytherapy is a type of internal radiation therapy that provides radiation inside the breast to any remaining tumor cells next to the space where the tumor was removed, and is given over a shorter amount of time than standard radiation therapy. Giving accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy may reduce the overall time that radiation is delivered to the tumor cells.
Combined estrogen and progestin therapy has been shown to increase mammographic density and incidence of breast cancer in randomized trials. We propose to examine the effects of now commonly used low-dose combined hormone therapy (HT) regimens on breast density, rates of abnormal mammogram, and circulating estrogens in the ongoing, already-funded Kronos Early Estrogen Prevention Study (KEEPS). KEEPS is a randomized clinical trial with a primary goal of examining the effects of low-dose transdermal versus oral estrogen combined with cyclic micronized progesterone on progression of subclinical atherosclerosis in recently menopausal women. Prior studies of low-dose HT have been of short duration and small size. By determining the effects of low-dose hormone therapy on the breast, the proposed ancillary study will add important information about the estimated balance of risks and benefits associated with low-dose HT and will help guide future research trials.
