Filter by:This is a prospective, open-lable phase II clinical trial evaluating the effectiveness and safety of gemcitabine plus cisplatin as adjuvant treatment for non-pCR TNBC patients after standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
This phase I trial studies the biological effects of DS-8201a on patients with HER2 positive cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). DS-8201a works by binding to a protein called HER2 that is present on the surface of tumor cells. This allows DS-8201a to kill the tumor cells by damaging their deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), resulting in tumor cell death. This study looks at how DS-8201a may affect the levels of certain proteins and immune cells in tumors and how well the drug works against tumor cells by examining cells from a small piece tumor taken before and after DS-8201a is given.
Inflammation has been consistently associated with psychoneurological symptoms (PNS) among breast cancer survivors (BCS). Evidence supporting interventional strategies promoting symptom-self management in reducing inflammation-induced PNS in BCS is limited. Current guidelines for BCS encourage the consumption of foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids. The omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), abundantly available in fish, has a role in inflammatory downregulation. Low dietary DHA has been associated with inflammation and fatigue in BCS. Dietary planning targeting increased fish consumption thereby reducing red and processed meats are components of the major nutritional recommendations for BCS. A critical gap exists in knowledge regarding interventions promoting adherence to dietary guidelines in BCS supporting PNS self-management. This investigation uses personalized meal planning among BCSs (n=150) who are 1-2 years post-treatment for early-stage breast cancer and experiencing PNS (pain, fatigue, depression, sleep disturbance, stress) to evaluate the feasibility of a personalized meal planning approach in supporting adherence to current dietary guidelines for BCS. As a first step in this program of research, we will evaluate the feasibility of an personalized meal planning approach in promoting adherence to dietary guidelines for BCS through evaluating the feasibility of a personalized meal planning approach in a cohort of BCSs with respect to recruitment, group allocation, salivary inflammatory quantification and receptivity to and adherence with dietary interventions. This investigation will also contribute to a preliminarily evaluation of the efficacy of high or low fish diet in reducing inflammation (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-a) and PNS symptoms. Nationally, there is a priority for the development of personalized health strategies supporting self-management of adverse symptoms. This investigation focused on PNS in BCS is an initial step in generating new knowledge in efficacious approaches toward guiding decisions on dietary behavior change strategies that are personalized, cost-effective, and sustainable.
Phase II, randomized, open-label, international, multicenter study to compare efficacy of standard chemotherapy vs. letrozole plus abemaciclib as neoadjuvant therapy in HR-positive/HER2-negative high/intermediate risk breast cancer patients
The main purpose of this study was to observe the efficacy and safety of treatment with pyrotinib and CDK4/6 inhibitor SHR6390 for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of H3B-6545 and palbociclib when administered in combination in order to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of this combination in women with advanced or metastatic estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) HER2- breast cancer.
Every year nearly 62,000 people are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK. One in eight women in the UK will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. The investigators are developing an inexpensive test to accurately predict how breast cancer patients will respond to the standard chemotherapy Anthracycline (AC). Only 15-20% of patients have no tumour remaining following AC, so a method of treatment selection is urgently needed. Breast cancers are currently treated with a combination of chemotherapy, targeted therapy and surgery. However, breast cancers are not identical; each tumour's individual characteristics affect how they respond to treatment. Recently the investigators discovered a new tumour characteristic, a protein which is unusually active in approximately 20% of breast cancers. It was found that a patient whose tumour showed high activity often respond well to AC, and vice versa. AC is an aggressive treatment which can potentially cause severe side effects, including a risk of permanent heart damage. It is important, therefore, to spare those patients who will not benefit from AC the physical and emotional side-effects of this drug. Currently, there is no predictive test for selecting which patients will benefit from AC and which will not. The investigators have shown that an accurate prediction can be made by testing the activity of a protein called 'SPerm associated AntiGen 5' (SPAG5) in tumour tissue. The aim is to develop a clinical SPAG5 testing kit that can be used by hospital laboratories to determine the activity of SPAG5 in the tumour. This information will help guide the choice of treatment and achieve better patient outcomes. In June 2018 the investigators started a three year National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) funded project to develop a lab test that could form the basis of a SPAG5 testing kit.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability and preliminary antitumor activity of ZW25 in combination with docetaxel in participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer, and ZW25 in combination with tislelizumab and chemotherapy in participants with HER2-positive gastric/gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma
Locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) is defined as breast cancer (BC) larger than 5 centimeters or with lymph node metastasis. Usually, LABC is treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by curative surgery to reduce tumor size and eliminate micrometastasis. Response to NAC helps predict BC prognosis. Pathologic complete response (pCR), defined as no residual tumor cells after NAC, represents prolonged survival without BC recurrence and residual cancer burden score, based on residual tumor volume, and can more accurately predict BC outcomes. Especially, Human epidermal growth factor receptoor type 2(HER2)-positive breast cancer, having aggressive biologic characteristics, was mostly treated by NAC because of recent advance of highly effective targeted agents (pertuzumab and trastuzumab). However, still 30-40% of HER2-positive breast cancer did not response to NAC and underwent disease recurrence. Recently, genetic studies to find biomarker of BC prognosis have been widely performed. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), which is circulating free DNA in the blood that originates from cancers, can be detected by recently-developed technologies. CtDNA could facilitate early disease detection, diagnosis and detection of disease recurrence. CtDNA also provides a genomic profile of BC and predicts drug response. In BC, ctDNA correlates with tumor burden and provides early detection of treatment response and tumor genetic alterations. In this study, the investigator aimed to identify the correlations in genomic profile between tumors and ctDNA during NAC(docetaxel /carboplatin /trastuzumab and pertuzumab) in HER2 positive breast cancer.
