Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, pre-operative Phase II study designed to estimate the efficacy of ipatasertib combined with paclitaxel chemotherapy versus placebo combined with paclitaxel chemotherapy in women with Stage Ia - IIIa triple-negative breast adenocarcinoma. The anticipated time on study treatment is 12 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and the effectiveness of a patient education program on patients' adherence to adjuvant hormone therapy (anti-estrogen or aromatase inhibitors) for breast cancer, in collaboration with teams of sociologists, patient education and medical oncologists.
This will be a multi-center, prospective, randomized, single-blinded, placebo-controlled phase II trial of trastuzumab + nelipepimut-S/GM-CSF versus trastuzumab + GM-CSF alone. Our target study population is high-risk HER2-positive breast cancer patients. High-risk HER2-positive breast cancer patients are defined as: Those with HER2-positive breast cancer, regardless of hormone receptor status, who receive neoadjuvant therapy with an approved regimen that includes trastuzumab and at least four cycles (12 weeks) of taxane-containing chemotherapy, and fail to achieve a pCR. Those with HER2-positive breast cancer, regardless of hormone receptor status, who undergo surgery as a first intervention and are found to have ≥ 4 positive lymph nodes. Those with HER2-positive, hormone receptor negative breast cancer who undergo surgery as a first intervention and are found to have 1-3 positive lymph nodes. Disease-free subjects after standard of care multi-modality therapy will be screened and HLA-typed.
This randomized pilot trial studies how well minocycline hydrochloride works in reducing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and acute pain in patients with breast cancer undergoing treatment with paclitaxel. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, may cause damage to nerves that result in aches, pains, and tingling or numbness of fingers and toes. Minocycline hydrochloride may help lessen nerve damage from paclitaxel and improve the quality of life in breast cancer patients.
This study will look at effects the combination of palbociclib and letrozole may have on estrogen receptor (ER)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer tumors which have not yet been treated. Letrozole is a type of endocrine therapy called an aromatase inhibitor (AI) and is standard treatment for post-menopausal women with ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer.
Radiation therapy may kill any tumor cells remaining after surgery. This randomized phase III trial is studying the effect of an extra dose of radiation therapy (Boost dose) after breast conserving surgery and 50 Gy adjuvant external beam radiotherapy to see how well it works compared to no further therapy in treating women with early breast cancer that has been surgically removed.
Many patients with ER-positive or PR-positive breast cancer are treated with endocrine therapy. Although most ER/PR-positive tumors initially respond to hormonal therapy, patients often experience disease progression. Everolimus, in combination with exemestane, has shown activity in endocrine-resistant disease. This study will evaluate the efficacy of Everolimus+ anti-estrogen therapy in patients with ER-positive metastatic breast cancer who have progressed after receiving anti-estrogen therapy.
To compare the kinetics and efficacy of two functionally different diagnostic agents, Lymphoseek (CD206 receptor targeted) and 99mTc-Sulfur Colloid (SC) (Sulfur Colloid non-specific mapping agent) in intraoperative lymphatic mapping (ILM) and Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB).
Some breast cancer cells make a protein called Human Epidermal Growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Patients with HER2 positive (HER2+) breast cancer receive medicine that attacks HER2, which helps these patients live longer. Some HER2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer patients also benefit from medicines that attack HER2, but we do not know why or which patients will benefit. This study uses a new imaging method, HER2-targeted PET/CT, to identify patients that may benefit from medicines that attack HER2. This is experimental.
This non-interventional prospective study will assess the safety of Herceptin SC (subcutaneous administration) as used in routine clinical practice. Patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer, naive and non-naive of HER2+ treatment who are to be treated in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting and scheduled to initiate a treatment with Herceptin SC in routine clinical practice use are eligible to participate. The total study duration is anticipated to be 38 months.
