Filter by:The primary aim of the trial is to investigate if a simple outdoor walking intervention, which is practicable under real-life conditions, beginning at the start of adjuvant aromatase inhibitor (AI) therapy, can prevent the occurrence of muscle or joint pain/stiffness in breast cancer patients.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized active-controlled, parallel group to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of intravenous balixafortide given with eribulin versus eribulin alone in the treatment of HER2 negative, Locally Recurrent or Metastatic Breast Cancer.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate in vivo the diagnostic relevance of ultrasound-derived metrics for stiffness, elasticity, viscosity, and anisotropy. Participants: Forty women with breast lesions that have a BIRADS-4 or BIRADS-5 rating and forty women undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for malignant breast lesions will be recruited. Subjects will be recruited from the Breast Imaging Division of UNC Hospitals. Procedures (methods): In this exploratory clinical study, the investigators will attempt to demonstrate that ARFI, VisR, and DDAI ultrasound reliably detect malignant breast masses (Aim #1) and distinguish masses that respond to chemotherapy from those that do not (Aim #2). The ARFI, VisR, and DDAI imaging location will be on the surface of the breast, above the suspicious or malignant mass. This unblinded, open-label, exploratory study will be conducted in 40 women with diagnosed BIRADS-4 or -5 masses in Aim #1 and in 40 women with malignant masses undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in Aim #2.
Totally 60 subjects will be included in the study. The present study was aimed to observe and evaluate the effect of Xinmailong injection on reducing cardiovascular toxicity associated with adjuvant chemotherapy after breast cancer surgery. The primary endpoint was 6 months of cardiac safety. Secondary endpoints included 3 months of cardiac safety, adverse events (AE), severe adverse events (SAE), and DFS.
This research study is evaluating acupuncture, a medical therapy in which hair-thin, stainless steel needles are shallowly inserted into specific points to help the body's natural healing process, as a possible treatment to reduce hot flashes.
This study aims to investigate the effect of the formation of social networks using smartphones can help increase physical activity and reduce stress in survivors after breast cancer treatment surgery.
20 non-metastasized breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy will be randomized between preop or postop RT. Patients with clinically suspicious axillary lymph nodes will receive a fine needle biopsy. Patients receiving postop RT will receive neoadjuvant CT followed by surgery (21-28 days after CT) and adjuvant RT starting 28-35 days after surgery. Patients receiving preop RT will receive RT first, followed by CT (5-8 days after the end of RT) and surgery (21-28 days after CT). All patients will receive a clip to locate the tumor before the start of any treatment.
Persistent postoperative pain occurs up to 25 to 60 % after mastectomy. This occurs at a higher frequency than the rate of invasive surgery.Therefore, many ways have been tried to study risk factors. A study was conducted to predict postoperative pain for items (preoperative pain, sensitivity, pain prediction). As a result, it was reported that the scope of surgery, pre-operative pain, young age, and depression were associated with persistent pain. This study try to find out whether persistent pain after mastectomy is affected anesthetic factors appropriate anesthesia depth and opioid using standardized monitoring devices limited to similar surgical ranges.
This is an open label, randomized, multicenter study evaluating the activity of lasofoxifene relative to fulvestrant for the treatment of pre- and postmenopausal women with locally advanced or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer with an acquired ESR1 mutation and who have disease progression on an aromatase inhibitor (AI) in combination with a cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor. The primary objective is to evaluate the progression free survival (PFS) of 5 mg lasofoxifene relative to fulvestrant for the treatment of pre- and postmenopausal women with locally advanced or metastatic estrogen receptor positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer with an estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) mutation. The secondary objectives are to evaluate: 1. Clinical benefit rate (CBR) and Objective Response Rate (ORR) 2. Duration of response 3. Time to response 4. Overall Survival (OS) 5. Pharmacokinetics of lasofoxifene 6. Quality of life (QoL): Quality of Life (QoL): vaginal assessment scale (VAS) and vulvar assessment scale (VuAS) questionnaires 7. Safety of lasofoxifene 8. Response to various ESR1 mutation (Y537S, Y537C, D538G, E380Q, S463P, V534E, P535H, L536H, L536P, L536R, L536Q, or Y537N).
The investigators hypothesize that many cancer patients desire discussions of cost as part of their care, but that preferences for having cost discussions with their physicians vary. Further, the investigators hypothesize that providers can introduce the topic of cost into clinical conversations in a balanced way and that this will improve shared decision making and patient uptake of offers of financial counseling which will lead to improved financial well-being, patient satisfaction with providers, and satisfaction with treatment decisions. Aim 1: Further understand patient preferences and attendant associations for cost discussions through a patient survey of newly diagnosed breast cancer patients. Aim 2: Study the influence of provider communication about cost on shared decision making, uptake of financial counseling, financial well-being and satisfaction through an intervention to encourage discussion of cost by breast cancer surgeons with subsequent referral to financial counseling.
