Filter by:With an increase in breast cancer survivors (BCS) in Singapore, the current oncologist-centric survivorship model will not be sustainable to respond to the rising demand of survivorship care services. To meet the long-term healthcare needs of Singaporeans in a sustainable manner, the investigators propose to pilot a breast cancer survivorship inter-professional community (BASIC) care model for cancer survivorship. This pilot study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of this care model for implementation among BCS and healthcare providers. The investigators hypothesize that the BASIC model is feasible and acceptable to be evaluated on a larger scale. This new follow-up model can potentially reduce waiting times in tertiary centers without compromising quality of care, directly benefiting participants through more efficient follow-up sessions.
The prevention of taxane-related toxicities at the extremities is highly important for patients' treatment and quality-of-life. Unlike standard cryotherapy with frozen gloves, hilotherapy produces cooling at a constant temperature. Comparative data with frozen gloves are unavailable. This prospective self-controlled study explores the efficacy of hilotherapy at the right hand and foot compared to frozen gloves at the left in patients with early breast cancer treated with weekly paclitaxel 80 mg/m² or three-weekly docetaxel 75 mg/m².
Multicentric, phase II neoadjuvant trial in hormone-positive, HER-negative, luminal B, premenopausal breast cancer patients stage II-IIIA. Patients receive as neoadjuvant treatment before surgery: three courses of anthracycline-based chemotherapy followed by exemestane p.o. daily plus nivolumab i.v. 2-weekly for 8 courses. GnRH analogues are started concomitantly with chemotherapy and maintained until the completion of neoadjuvant treatment.
This is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, prospective, phase II study. conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of nab-paclitaxel plus pyrotinib in patients with lymph node-negative and tumor size ≤3 cm, HER2 positive breast cancer.
The aim is to determine the pharmacological and biochemical association between ribociclib exposure and CYP3A variants in African American/Blacks and Non-Hispanic White patients. The investigators hypothesize that patients treated with ribociclib who are CYP3A5 poor metabolizers may be exposed to higher levels of ribociclib than CYP3A5 intermediate or normal metabolizers. The findings could allow clinicians to tailor treatments to maintain therapeutic doses while limiting toxicities.
Sonazoid as a new generation of ultrasound contrast agent.This study based on the features of Sonazoid specific angiography and high mechanical index,the role of Sonazoid in the differential diagnosis of breast benign and malignant tumors was explored.
Detection of multifocal, multicentric breast cancer in patients with breast cancer affects surgical decision. Histology-proven additional cancer foci have been reported to be detected in 21.0% to 63.0% of affected breasts in women thought to have localized cancer based on clinical assessment and mammography. Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI is often applied in the preoperative local staging of breast cancer due to its high sensitivity and identifies additional foci that would have otherwise remained undetected on clinical assessment and conventional imaging (mammography and ultrasonography). However, DCE MRI is limited in use due to its low specificity with high false positive rate, causing unnecessary and incorrect conversion to more extensive surgery. Diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) is a fast, functional MRI technique that measures the movement of water molecules to create tissue contrast without the need for contrast injection. Breast malignancies exhibit hindered diffusion and appear hyperintense on DWI with low apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values compared to normal surrounding tissue or benign tumors. Multiple studies including one prospective multi-center trial showed that DWI can reduce unnecessary benign biopsies of suspicious mammographic or DCE MRI-detected lesions and DWI is now considered as an important part of multi-parametric breast MRI protocols. However, little is known about the role of DWI as an adjunct to DCE MRI in the local staging of women with breast cancer. The purpose of our study is to determine whether DWI improves the performance of preoperative DCE MRI in the evaluation of additional lesions in breast cancer patients.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate which is more effective resistance or aerobic exercises on cancer related fatigue and immunity in breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an online psychosocial self-help program for Chinese immigrant women with breast cancer, by comparing Chinese immigrant women who receive the online psychosocial program and those who do not receive the program. The investigators want to understand if this online psychosocial program is effective in helping Chinese immigrant women to feel more supported, understand that the distress is normal, engage in self-care activities, become aware of the community resources, feel more confident about returning to a normal life, and feel less distress overall as they return to life after treatment. This information will help us to better understand these Chinese immigrant women's needs and concerns and plan future growth of the program to meet their personal, cultural, and language needs.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of generating patient derived micro-organospheres (PDMO) from patients with advanced breast cancer to determine sensitivity to the most common forms of chemotherapy used in advanced breast cancer care.
