Filter by:This purpose of this study is to examine skin reactions (called radiation dermatitis) that occur during pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy. The researchers will test a unique technique called "Spot Delete" to see if it can reduce skin reactions for breast patients treated with PBS. They will also use a special computer model to study how the energy of the proton beam (linear energy transfer) is related to these skin reactions. The study involves creating a treatment plan based on a CT scan, which helps guide the proton beam in the body. The clinical team uses this CT scan to find the best placement for the protons. The "Spot Delete" method prevents protons from stopping in the skin, which is thought to cause skin redness.
In the present study, the investigators aim to investigate feasibility of utilizing noninvasive neuromodulation, specifically taVNS, as a nonpharmacologic approach to address insomnia in patients with stage I-IV breast cancer.
The aim of the study was to examine the effect of counselling and follow-up after education on the risks and prevention methods of breast cancer on early diagnosis behaviours and healthy lifestyle behaviours. The population of the study will consist of female administrative staff working at Mersin University. The sample of the study will consist of 160 people. A total of 160 personnel determined by randomisation will be divided into group A (study) and group B (control) formed by the independent researcher in the computer environment. All participants will be given a one-hour training on breast cancer and will be practised with a model as well as a presentation. Group A will be counselled for 6 months after the training and a reminder message will be sent via SMS on Monday every week as "Check your modifiable risk factors for breast cancer" and their feedback will be received. In group B, no additional application will be made except for the training. The data of the study will be collected before and 6 months after the training by using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, Breast Cancer Early Diagnosis Behaviours Form, Counselling Form and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviours Scale II. The data obtained from the study will be analysed in a computer environment. Number, percentage, mean and standard deviation will be used as descriptive statistics in the evaluation of the data.
In this research study, investigators are testing if a dose-increasing strategy for abemaciclib will have less side effects and be better tolerated than the standard dosage of abemaciclib for participants with early-stage high-risk hormone receptor positive breast cancer. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Abemaciclib (CDK4 and CDK6 inhibitor) - Tamoxifen (Selective estrogen receptor modulator) - Anastrozole/Letrozole (Non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors) - Exemestane (steroidal aromatase inhibitor) - LHRH (Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, or Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist)
Breast cancer is a malignant tumor with the highest morbidity and mortality among women worldwide. Accurate staging of axillary lymph nodes is critical for metastatic assessment and decisions regarding treatment modalities in breast cancer patient. Among patients who underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy, about 70 % of the patients had negative pathological results and in other words, these 70 % of the patients received unnecessary surgery. At present, imaging and pathological diagnosis is the main measure of lymph node metastasis in breast cancer. However, limitations remained. Artificial intelligence, including deep learning and machine learning algorithms, has emerged as a possible technique, which can make a more accuracy prediction through machine-based collection, learning and processing of previous information, especially in radiology and pathology-based diagnosis. With the intensification of the concept of precision medicine and the development of non-invasive technology, the investigators intend to use the artificial intelligence technology to develop a serum and tissue-based predictive model for sentinel lymph node metastasis diagnosis combined with imaging and pathological information, providing specific, efficient and non-invasive biological indicators for the monitoring and early intervention of lymph node metastasis in patient with breast cancer. Therefore, the investigators retrospectively include serum samples from early breast cancer patients undergoing sentinel lymph node biopsy, including a discovery cohort and a modeling cohort. Metabolites were detected and screened in the discovery cohort and then as the target metabolites for targeted detection in the modeling cohort. Combined with preoperative imaging and pathological information, a prediction model of breast cancer sentinel lymph node metastasis based on serum metabolites would be established. Subsequently, multi-center breast cancer patients will prospectively be included to verify the accuracy and stability of the model.
Evaluate the efficacy and safety of Disitamb Vedotin combined with pyrotinib in HER2 positive early breast cancer
This study is a multicenter, single-arm, prospective, open clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib in combination with trastuzumab, albumin paclitaxel, and carboplatin in neoadjuvant therapy for ER+/HER2+ early or locally advanced breast cancer.
This is an open, randomized, controlled, multicenter Phase III clinical study. Eligible subjects were randomly assigned 1:1 to albumin-paclitaxel plus carboplatin and carrilizumab with or without famitinib neoadjuvant therapy. Stratification was performed at randomization according to the following factors: clinical stage of the tumor (stage II; Stage III) and CD8 expression status (IHC ≥10%, < 10%). Subjects who have completed neoadjuvant therapy and are suitable for surgery are required to undergo surgery. Subjects in the experimental group will continue to receive carrilizumab and famitinib until one year from the start of neoadjuvant therapy, and subjects in the control group will continue to receive carrilizumab until one year from the start of neoadjuvant therapy. Subjects who completed neoadjuvant therapy were required to undergo imaging efficacy evaluation according to RECIST1.1 before surgery; subjects suitable for surgery received surgical treatment, and pathological evaluation of tumor efficacy was performed after surgery. During the study treatment, if the subjects show disease progression, toxicity intolerance, withdrawal of informed consent, or the investigator determines that medication must be terminated, the study treatment will be terminated, and follow-up will continue, including disease recurrence and metastasis and safety follow-up. Participants who complete surgical treatment will be followed for at least 2 years for event-free survival (EFS), disease-free survival (DFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DDFS), and safety assessment. Safety data should be collected from the signing of the informed consent until 28 days after the end of the study.
This research is a randomized controlled double-blind experimental study aiming to evaluate the effect of tele-nursing practices based on technological competence theory on empowerment status and symptom management self-efficacy in breast cancer patients. The research will be carried out between September 2023 and March 2024 with patients diagnosed with breast cancer, who are receiving chemotherapy on an active basis, registered in the Medical Oncology Polyclinic of Atatürk University Health Research and Application Center. The sample of the study will consist of 70 people, 35 of which are in the experimental group and 35 in the control group. Afterwards, approximately 11 weeks of tele-nursing practices, including training, counseling and tele-monitoring based on the theory of technological competence, will be given to the experimental group. While preparing the content of tele-nursing practices, national and international literature will be scanned. In line with the literature; Training, consultancy and follow-up will be provided on breast cancer, problems experienced in the treatment process of breast cancer, the most frequently experienced chemotherapy symptoms and management strategies. Before starting the training program, a training booklet will be distributed to the patients and shared as an e-booklet. Within the scope of the training program, a five-week training will be held once a week via "Google Meet". After the training program is completed, the counseling and telemonitoring process will begin. In this process, a previously prepared consultancy guide will be used. Counseling and telemonitoring will cover 2 chemotherapy cycles (approximately 6 weeks). Within the scope of the application, the entire experimental group will be individually phoned on the 7th day after receiving a chemotherapy course. Information about the individual conditions of the patients and the instant status changes regarding the symptoms will be obtained and their questions will be answered in line with the previously created counseling guide. Patients will be informed that at any time other than the specified days, the questions of the patients regarding the instantaneous situation changes will be answered. After the completion of the tele-nursing practices, post-test measurements will be made with the Cancer Empowerment Scale and the Chemotherapy Symptom Management in Breast Cancer-Self-efficacy Scale of the experimental and control groups, and the feedback of the patients in the experimental group regarding the implementation process will be received. No attempt will be made to the individuals in the control group during the research process.
