Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of Akt inhibitor MK2206 (MK2206) when given together with paclitaxel and to see how well they work in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment or breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving Akt inhibitor MK2206 and paclitaxel may be a better treatment for solid tumors or breast cancer.
This study will assess safety and ergonomics/engineering design of a novel cancer treatment, Continuous Low Irradiance Photodynamic therapy (CLIPT). We will assess the effects on primary and metastatic tumors involving the skin, in particular to improve the functionality, efficiency and wearability of the light delivery device (LDD) as well as the overall treatment in subjects with chest wall recurrences of breast cancer. An ongoing study (IRB# 8227), sponsored by a Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation grant, using a 1st generation LDD device has evaluated and determined a dose-limiting toxicity of CLIPT for subjects with chest wall recurrences of breast cancer. A Diomed laser will be the device used in this study. The Diomed laser will deliver 630 nm (red spectrum) light through a Fiber Optic Patch. The Fiber Optic patch will be compatible with the laser, delivering light to a designated region on the patient's skin.
GERICO 09/0907 is a Phase II multicentric trial evaluating the toxicity and activity of the combination of lapatinib and capecitabine in locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer over expressing HER2 for patients aged ≥ 70 who have failed after one line of chemotherapy in combination with trastuzumab. Due to the minimal participation of older people in clinical trials, there is a lack of data to make evidence-based decisions regarding chemotherapy in this indication. The study is designed to investigate whether elderly patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer over-expressing HER2 could take advantage of the combination lapatinib and capecitabine in term of clinical benefit, and with no adverse effects and no detrimental impact on functional status (part of geriatric assessment). The main objective is to assess clinical benefit (defined at 4 months as complete response, partial response or stable disease), safety and preserved geriatric independence (main objective is a "bi-criteria" or composite criteria).
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if dovitinib can help to control inflammatory breast cancer. The safety of this drug will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of HLA-A*2402 restricted epitope peptides CDCA1，URLC10，KIF20A，DEPDC1 and MPHOSPH1 emulsified with Montanide ISA 51.
A prospective, multicenter study: - Primary objective: to assess the diagnostic yield of screening MRI compared to physical examination, mammography or ultrasonography in the detection of recurrence in patients treated with breast conserving therapy - Secondary objective: to describe the size, type, grade, and nodal status of cancers seen only on MRI and to estimate the rate of benign biopsies and short interval follow-up induced only by MRI in this population.
The investigators want to develop a gene expression profile for the prediction of immunotherapy response of patients with metastatic breast cancer presenting malignant pleural effusion.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with imetelstat + paclitaxel (with or without bevacizumab) versus paclitaxel (with or without bevacizumab) alone for patients with locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer who have not received chemotherapy or have received one non-taxane based chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of the anti-VEGFR-2 monoclonal antibody ramucirumab drug product in combination with docetaxel in Japanese participants with metastatic, or locally advanced breast cancer, with the aim of confirming the recommended dose of ramucirumab drug product (DP) in combination with docetaxel.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if delayed-delayed breast reconstruction in women who require post-mastectomy radiation therapy will improve cosmetic outcomes and result in fewer complications compared to the standard approach (reconstruction that is not started until radiation treatment is completed).
