Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of pentoxifylline 400 mg twice daily administration on the prevention of paclitaxel-Induced peripheral neuropathy in breast cancer patients.
The present study compares the Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block, Pectoral (PECS II) block, and Serratus-Intercostal Fascial Plane (SIFP) block. This is the first article to compare these three locoregional nerve block techniques in acute and chronic postoperative pain in breast tumour surgery. From June 1, 2018, to June 30, 2019, 103 patients undergoing breast cancer surgery were randomised to undergo one of three locoregional techniques (35 for ESP block, 34 for PECS II block, 34 for SIFP block). Locoregional techniques were performed under light sedation and then, general anaesthesia was used for the breast cancer surgery. Outcomes measured included pain (visual analog scale [VAS] in immediate postoperatory and at 24 hours. It also was collected opioid use at 24 hours, adverse events, and length of stay (for acute postoperatory). Moreover, at 3 months, a telephone interview was conducted with the patient and VAS was questioned. A year later, the patient was questioned again and asked for VAS, location of her pain, and pharmacological treatment. It was collected if patients were assisted or not by a Pain Unit.
This is a multi-center, retrospective-prospective, observational, active-control, non-inferiority, real world study using hospital medical record data, with objectives to evaluate E2 suppressive effect of Zoladex® 10.8 mg is non-inferior to Zoladex® 3.6 mg. Eligible breast cancer patients who received Zoladex® from January 1st, 2015 till December 31st, 2021(including December 31st, 2021) will be identified and included for retrospective data collection and analyses in this study. And prospective data will be monthly collected of eligible patients receiving Zoladex® after January 1st, 2022 (including January 1st, 2022) until approximately 1000 patients being included in this study for analysis. (If site has specific identification of retrospective data and prospective data, it will be subject to the requirement of site). The first date of the presence of Zoladex® treatment or prescription record for breast cancer during the study period will be considered the index date for patients. According to the Zoladex® treatment at the index date, patients will be categorized into two cohorts: Zoladex® 10.8 mg or Zoladex® 3.6 mg. About 10-15 hospitals will be included in this study. To be considered, the hospitals need to have relatively large number of eligible patients, geographic representativeness and willingness to participate in this study. Approximately 1000 eligible patients from selected hospitals during the study period will be included and matched with propensity scores. It is expected that at least 150 matched patients in each of the two cohorts will eventually be included in the primary endpoint analysis. The final subject number will be based on the actual situation of the study.
The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a remotely-delivered yoga intervention for breast cancer survivors.
It was aimed to determine the effect of virtual reality glasses application on anxiety and fatigue in women with breast cancer receiving adjuvant chemotherapy.
This is a monocentric, prospective and interventional study aimed to investigating the physiological responses of eccentric compared to concentric cycling realized 1) at the same metabolic demand and 2) at the same mechanical power output. In order to compare the physiological responses between these two cycling modalities, 3 cycling sessions should be performed for each patient where concentric one will serve as reference / comparison to the eccentric one: - Session (a): eccentric cycling - Session (b): high intensity concentric cycling realized at the same mechanical power output than eccentric cycling - Session (c): low intensity concentric cycling realized at the same metabolic demand than eccentric cycling The 3 sessions will be performed for each patient and order will be randomized.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of the Sentimag localization system and its tracer Magtrace, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, as a tracer in sentinel node biopsy in breast cancer with Tc99 in a single-center prospective study. The other part of the study will be the implantation of the smallest non-radioactive seed, Magseed, in the non-palpable breast cancer lesions. Another part of the study will be the implantation of Magseed in the positive axillary lymph nodes in patients diagnosed with clinically positive lymph nodes that will receive neoadjuvant systemic therapy.
Background: Online interventions can be a fast, cost-efficient, and convenient medium for providing breast cancer patients (BCP) with access to evidence-based interventions that address their emotional needs. As true as that may be, online interventions are still a novel research area that struggles in implementation. Objectives: This study aims to determine the acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy of Oncovox, an iACT-BC, a guided internet delivered ACT intervention designed to improve psychosocial outcomes in BCP diagnosed within the last two years when compared to treatment as usual. The primary outcomes in this study are health related quality of life, behavioural activation, symptom interference and reward observation. The secondary outcomes are psychosocial distress, anxiety and depression and psychological flexibility. Methods: A two-arm, parallel, open label, waiting list randomised controlled trial will investigate the effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of Oncovox. Expected results: It is anticipated that Oncovox will show to be effective, feasible and acceptable programme in improving health related quality of life, behavioural activation, symptom interference, reward observation, psychological distress, anxiety, depression, and psychological flexibility in BCP diagnosed in the last two years, as opposing to a waiting list control under treatment as usual. An exploratory moderator analysis will be employed to the assess the significance of Time x Group as well as Time x Group x Surgery type interactions for all outcome and process variables. A mediation analysis to assess the effect of psychological flexibility on the outcomes will also be applied. The results of this research will be published in accordance with CONSORT 2010 and CONSORT-EHEALTH guidelines and should be available for publication in September 2022.
Cancer survivorship is associated with many long-term chronic health issues that arise as a result of cancer treatment protocols. Non-pharmacological lifestyle and mind-body interventions have been shown to be effective and critical components of a total-health strategy for cancer survivors. PranaScience Institute seeks to develop and test a novel group video app for home-based delivery of a Yogic Breathing intervention that reduces symptoms of cancer treatment survival and supports total-health.
The primary objective of this Phase 2 Simon 2-Stage study is to determinate the Overall Response Rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 following treatment with Imprime PGG + pembrolizumab in patients with ER/PR+/ HER2(-) metastatic breast cancer who have progressed through prior hormone therapy with at least one CDK4/6 inhibitor, and a maximum of 2 subsequent chemotherapy treatment. Patients will be screened for baseline anti-β glucan antibody level (ABA; measured in peripheral blood). Those patients with an ABA greater than or equal to 20 mcg/ml and meeting all other I/E criteria, will be enrolled. The study will enroll 47 patients with 23 patients enrolled into Stage 1. If 4 or more patients in Stage 1 have an objective response after 12 weeks of treatment, the study will proceed into Stage 2. A total of 24 patients will be enrolled in Stage 2 for a total combined population of 47. Overall, objective responses must be observed in 10 patients for the study to be declared a success.
