Filter by:The study is being conducted to evaluate the tolerability, safety and efficacy of SHR-1210 in combination with Apatinib and Fluzoparib in subjects with recurrent and metastatic triple negative breast cancer
The study comprises two phases: Phase 1a and Phase 1b. The purpose of the study is to observe the safety， tolerability and efficacy of FS-1502.
Phase II, multicenter, single arm trial to assess the feasibility of first line ribociclib in combination with a non steroidal aromatase inhibitor in women or men aged 70 years-old or older, with hormone receptor positive/HER2 negative advanced breast cancer
Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer affecting women, with 1 in 8 women in the UK developing breast cancer in their life time. Chemotherapy drugs, currently used for locally advanced breast cancers, are associated with side effects while dietary supplements have complex effects with a relatively small effect size. Breast tumours have different metabolism compared to healthy tissue, including elevated lactate production by aerobic glycolysis (AG), an underpinning feature of metabolism in breast cancer cells. Dietary nitrate, contained in leafy green vegetables and beetroot, has been shown to improve energy efficiency in exercising skeletal muscle, positioning itself as a disruptor of AG. The purpose of this study is to examine if dietary nitrate can disrupt AG and as a result to halt or even reverse tumour progression and survival. This study will look at scans of breast tumours using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Changes to tumour related biochemical substances will be measured by advanced magnetic resonance spectroscopy and changes to tissue structure will be measured by advanced diffusion MRI techniques. In this study, 16 patients undergoing surgery will be recruited for two MRI scans following a 5 day intervention programme.
This pilot trial studies whether a procedure called lymphovenous bypass would prevent lymphedema (arm swelling) in patients with inflammatory breast cancer or non-inflammatory breast cancer that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes or melanoma. The lymphovenous bypass procedure creates a path for lymphatic fluid to flow away from the arms. It is usually done after a diagnosis of lymphedema. In this study, giving lymphovenous bypass before underarm lymph node surgery may help prevent lymphedema from forming.
This trial phase I studies how well fingolimod works in preventing chemotherapy-induced nerve pain (neuropathy) in patients with breast cancer who are taking paclitaxel. Fingolimod acts by suppressing immune reactions in the brain. This study is being done to see if fingolimod can reduce neuropathy caused by paclitaxel.
This phase II trial studies how well estradiol works in treating patients with estrogen receptor beta (ER beta) positive, triple negative breast cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Hormone receptors like ER beta allow the body to respond appropriately to hormones. Triple negative means that the breast cancer does not express other hormone receptors called ER alpha, progesterone, and HER2. In some people with triple negative breast cancer, ER beta is overexpressed. Tumor cells that overexpress ER beta grow slower in the laboratory and this growth is slowed in the presence of estrogen. Estradiol is a form of estrogen. This study may help doctors determine whether tumor cells that overexpress ER beta shrink in the presence of estradiol.
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death for women around the world. Notably, most breast cancer patients die from tumor metastases in the liver, lungs, bones, or brain, not the primary tumor itself. Currently, clinicians are generally successful in treating primary tumors using standard protocols that are based on tumor sub-type and staging, as well as by the presence or absence of prognostic biomarkers. However, it remains difficult to assess in advance the likelihood of metastasis or relapse in any given patient.Physicians can only rely on regular post-treatment screening to monitor any secondary onset. By the time metastasis is detected, the golden window for treatment adjustment has often already passed. This project proposes to develop an analytical tool for predicting the likelihood of metastasis in breast cancer patients post-treatment using imaging and genomic data. We will evaluate our prediction model using prospectively-collected patient data. This new prognostic tool will enable physicians to adjust and tailor therapeutic strategies to each patient in a timely manner. Overall, the tool will personalize patient care, and improve their survival chances and quality of life.
This prospective, non-randomized phase II study will evaluate the cosmetic outcome of using pencil beam scanning proton therapy for partial breast irradiation in patients diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. In addition the study will evaluate the acute and late toxicities, and the rates of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence, both in situ and invasive disease. To qualify for the trial, patients must be 50 years or older and have stage 0 (carcinoma in situ) or stage IA or IIA invasive carcinoma of the breast with no evidence of metastatic disease. The tumor size must be 3cm or less. Women must have undergone a partial mastectomy with margins free of invasive cancer and at least a 2mm margin for in situ disease. Patients must have clinically node negative disease. Patients with invasive disease must also have nodal assessment performed with either sentinel lymph node biopsy or axillary lymph node dissection and patients must have pathologically node negative disease. Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) will utilize pencil beam scanning proton therapy. Partial breast irradiation will be delivered twice a day, at least 6 hours apart, over 5 treatment days. This trial is designed to accrue 21 patients over a period of three years.
The scope of this study is the methodological development and optimisation of sodium MRI (23Na-MRI) protocols for breast cancer imaging. The study further proposes to utilise biomarkers obtained from 23Na-imaging (cell integrity), FDG-PET (metabolism), multi-parametric MRI (perfusion, vascularity, cellularity, morphology) to generate parameter maps specific for physiological processes in breast cancer.
