Filter by:This randomized trial is comparing a standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy with a genomic driven chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer.
The purpose of this study among breast cancer survivors is three-fold: (i) to evaluate the efficacy of the MBSR(BC) program in improving psychological and physical symptoms, quality of life and measures of immune function and a stress hormone (cortisol); (ii) to test whether positive effects achieved from the MBSR(BC) program are mediated through changes in mindfulness and fear of recurrence of breast cancer; and (iii) to evaluate whether positive effects achieved from the MBSR(BC) program are modified by specific patient characteristics measured at baseline.
Aromasin® (Exemestane) was approved in China for adjuvant treatment of postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER) positive early invasive breast cancer who have received 2-3 years of tamoxifen & are switched to Aromasin® for completion of a total of 5 consecutive years of adjuvant hormonal therapy by State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) with clinical trial waive. While Aromasin® has been used in China for adjuvant therapy of breast cancer since then, there is currently lack of systematic collection and analysis for the efficacy and safety data of Aromasin® adjuvant setting in Chinese population. The Aromasin® Interventional Study is being proposed to collect data systematically and to assess the efficacy and safety of Aromasin® adjuvant setting in Chinese population.
The hypothesis of this clinical research study is to discover if the study drug apatinib can shrink or slow the growth of pretreated metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the response rate for triple negative breast cancer patients with brain metastasis when INIPARIB is used in combination with irinotecan. Based on data generated by BiPar/Sanofi, it is concluded that iniparib does not possess characteristics typical of the PARP inhibitor class. The exact mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated, however based on experiments on tumor cells performed in the laboratory, iniparib is a novel investigational anti-cancer agent that induces gamma-H2AX (a marker of DNA damage) in tumor cell lines, induces cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase in tumor cell lines, and potentiates the cell cycle effects of DNA damaging modalities in tumor cell lines. Investigations into potential targets of iniparib and its metabolites are ongoing.
Open-label, multicenter phase I/II trial. Patients with HER2-positive (overexpressing or amplified), invasive breast cancer with T1c N1-2 or T2 N0-2 disease will be treated with - Non-pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (NPLD; Myocet, 60 mg/m^2 i.v. day 1 q3 weeks), - Paclitaxel (175 mg/m^2 i.v. day 1 q3 weeks), and - Lapatinib (GW572016, Tykerb, 750-1500 mg/d orally daily until the day of the definitive surgery) Treatment is planned for 6 cycles unless there is evidence of unacceptable toxicity, disease progression or inadequate efficacy (defined as a decrease in tumor size <25% after 4 courses measured by ultrasound or MR-mammography), or if the patient requested to be released.
The purpose of this study is to investigate circadian disturbances after breast cancer surgery by means of monitoring sleep and heart-rate variability, by measuring a metabolite of melatonin in urine and by questionnaires and a sleep-diary.
For patients receiving Faslodex 500 mg, to compare the effectiveness in terms of Time to Progression (TTP) as a function of the line of treatment (i.e. 1st vs. 2nd vs. 3rd line). For all patients, to collect and explore real-life data on the epidemiology and management of Pseudomyxoma Peritonea (PMP) patients with HR+ advanced breast cancer (ABC) treated with Faslodex 500 mg or exemestane.
The genetic polymorphisms of the cytochrome P450 may influence on the metabolism of tamoxifen. The investigators want to - evaluate the frequency or incidence of the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 subfamilies(CYP2D6, CYP3A4/5 and CYP2C19) in breast cancer patients, and - analyze the association between the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 subfamilies and clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients treated by adjuvant tamoxifen therapy.
The overall goal of this project is to determine if high dose vitamin D3 given to premenopausal women at high risk for development of breast cancer, who initially have insufficient levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (<30 ng/ml), will raise 25(OH)D levels above 50 ng/ml. If so, will certain risk biomarkers for development of breast cancer be reliably and favorably modulated?
