Filter by:Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy is the gold standard method to stage axilla in breast cancer. The aim of the study is to compare the efficiency of various methods to identify SLN is breast cancer patients.
Endocrine therapy is the initial treatment for most hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancers. This study will evaluate the use of venetoclax in combination with capecitabine in adult participants with HR+, HER2-, metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who had disease progression following treatment that included a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor. Venetoclax is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of breast cancer. This study is open-label meaning both the participants and study doctors will know what treatment is being given. The study includes two phases: dose escalation and dose expansion. In dose escalation, participants will receive various doses of venetoclax in combination with capecitabine. In dose expansion, participants will receive the recommended dose of venetoclax determined during dose escalation in combination with capecitabine. Adult participants with locally advanced or MBC that is not amenable to curative therapy will be enrolled. Around 42 participants will be enrolled at approximately 20 sites worldwide. Venetoclax and capecitabine will be administered on a 21-day cycle. During dose escalation, participants will take various doses of venetoclax as a tablet by mouth once a day and capecitabine as a tablet by mouth twice per day on days 1 - 14 of each cycle for approximately 30 weeks. During dose expansion, participants will take venetoclax at the dose identified during dose escalation as a tablet by mouth once a day and capecitabine as a tablet by mouth twice per day on days 1 - 14 of each cycle for approximately 30 weeks. There may be a higher burden for participants in this trial compared to standard of care. Participants will attend weekly visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, and evaluating for side effects.
The purpose of the study is to see if a new group of imaging tests can help identify response to stage IV HER2+ breast cancer before treatment.
The purpose of this study is to validate the interest of broadband spectroscopy analysis (femto/attosecond by infrared laser) on liquid biopsies in breast cancer screening.
This is a prospective multisite exploratory study for women ≥ 65 years of age with early stage estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. These individuals will be treated with 3 months of pre-operative endocrine therapy (pre-ET) with assessment of tolerance to the endocrine therapy by patient reported outcome (PRO) measures (patient surveys).
This is a phase I study looking at the safety of cancer peptides combined with adjuvant and GM-CSF in subjects with estrogen receptor (ESR) positive breast cancer. The primary objective of the study is to determine the safety of of the peptide vaccine. The secondary objective is to evaluate the immune response to the vaccine. The peptides used in this vaccine are derived from the estrogen receptor and are combined with the adjuvant Montanide ISA and GM-CSF to enhance their immune response. A peptide vaccine of these peptides may improve outcomes of patients with endocrine resistant breast cancer.
Breast cancer is the first female cancer in France. Total mastectomy occurred in 30% of breast cancer patient population. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of outpatient surgery for the total mastectomy. In France, Ambulatory care is developed as part of the new national health plan. Breast conserving surgery for tumorectomy or partial mastectomy is already done in outpatient vacation. Total mastectomy is an extension of this surgery, and, as such, underpins the investigator's hypothesis that total mastectomy is feasible in outpatient care .
Female breast cancer is still the most frequent type of cancer in Europe with 21 per 100,000 women .The EORTC QLQ-BR23 was one of the first modules developed to be used in conjunction with the core questionnaire EORTC QLQ-C30 and was published in 1996. Since the beginning of the work on the EORTC QLQ-BR23 some 20 years ago, much knowledge has been gathered about the epidemiology of breast cancer, and major advances have been made with regard to diagnostic and therapeutic options. Therefore, the EORTC Quality of life group decided to update the BC23. A phase 1 to 3 module development project has been completed. This resulted in a 45 item module, retaining 23 of the original items and adding 22 new items, particularly tapping into the side effects of new systemic and local therapies. The aim of the Phase 4 study is to test the scale structure, reliability, responsiveness to change, and validity of the EORTC QLQ-BC45 in conjunction with the EORTC QLQ-C30 in patients diagnosed with breast cancer. Participants will be enrolled in four groups according to their disease stage (1. local/locally advanced disease, 2. metastatic disease, 3. follow up. Various combinations of therapies are permissible. According to sample size calculations, we will include a total of N =490 patients from 12 countries. Participants will be invited to complete the QLQ-C30 and the QLQ-BC45, followed by the Debriefing Questionnaire. Data of all patients will be used to evaluate the scale structure, internal consistency, convergent and discriminant validity. A subgroup of follow up patients with no evidence of disease (no change in health status) will be invited to complete the QLQ-C30 and the QLQ-BC45 for a second time one to two weeks later for the test-retest analysis. A subgroup of patients from the local/ locally advanced breast cancer group (who have had change in disease or treatment status after the first assessment) will be invited to complete a second set of questionnaires for the response to change analysis. Sociodemographic and clinical data will be recorded using standardized case report forms (CRF).
The purpose of this study is using a deep learning method to analyze the automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) and hand-held ultrasound(HHUS) images, establish and evaluate a diagnosis, therapy assessment and prognosis prediction model of breast cancer. The model would provide important references for further early prevention, early diagnosis and personalized treatment.
Breast cancer is the leading cancer affecting women in Singapore. Breast cancer survivors commonly experience declined physical function and quality of life, due to their upper limb morbidity and wound issues post-surgery. Rehabilitation therapy can address the aforementioned issues that the survivors may experience during their recovery. No therapy however, can be effective if patients do not utilize them. Home-based telehealth (e.g., tele-rehabilitation) self-managed by patients and guided by healthcare professionals can potentially improve the service use and recovery. This study aims to understand the lived experience of post-mastectomy tele-rehabilitation and recovery process among female patients who undergo a unilateral mastectomy for breast cancer.
