Filter by:The purpose of this study is to confirm the efficacy of intravaginal prasterone (DHEA) on moderate to severe (MS) and most bothersome symptoms (MBS) of vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA) due to natural, surgical or treatment-induced menopause, in women with breast cancer who are under treatment with an aromatase inhibitor.
PHOENIX is a window of opportunity (WOP), open-label, multi-centre, phase IIa trial comprising multiple non-comparative treatment cohorts with patient allocation via randomisation. The trial consists of two parts: a post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy, preoperative WOP component (PART 1); and a post-operative component (PART 2). PHOENX aims to assess whether short exposure to a DNA damage response (DDR) inhibitor and/or anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy in a preoperative WOP in patients with post-NACT high residual disease, generates a signal of anti-tumour biological activity within residual disease tissue.
This study evaluates the efficacy of vaginal CO2 laser therapy in breast cancer survivors with symptoms of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause. Half of participants will receive active laser therapy, while the other half placebo therapy.
This is a single institution, observational research study in which patients are observed using DWI/DCE MRI imaging before and after receiving neoadjuvant anti-HER2 therapy.
This trial collects clinical information and tissue and blood samples from patients with breast cancer that has come back or is stage IV. Collecting clinical information and biospecimen samples to create a registry may help doctors better understand the mechanism of tumor spread and determine why people respond differently to specific cancer treatments.
Reconstructive surgery with breast implants after total mastectomy for breast cancer is invariably related to several possible complications, such as atrophy of surrounding tissues, skin thinning, capsular contracture, wound dehiscence and inframammary fold break. Such complications are promoted by elastic properties of tissues and their response to gravity forces exerted on breast implant weight, leading to microischaemic events. A poor cosmetic outcome may result up to breast implant exposure, and its removal may become necessary, thus compromising the quality of breast reconstruction. These complications are further favoured by post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT), since irradiation could enhance microischaemia of peri-prosthetic soft tissues and muscle, with subsequent inadequate healing, fibrosis and thinning. Since PMRT has been associated to improved loco-regional control in node-positive breast cancer patients, its use has increased in recent years. On one hand, PMRT has improved loco-regional control but, on the other hand, it has increased the failure rate of breast reconstruction after total mastectomy. Change of timing in breast reconstruction (immediate vs. two-staged by use of tissue expander) has not decreased the complications rate after PMRT. Currently the failure rate of breast reconstruction after total mastectomy and PMRT ranges from 0% to 40%. The present study will recruit 80 participants affected by breast cancer candidated to total mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction and subsequent PMRT or total mastectomy with reconstruction by tissue expander, subsequent PMRT and then definitive reconstruction with breast implant. Participants will be randomized in two experimental arms: 40 patients will receive final reconstruction by the use of standard silicone-based breast implant and the other 40 patients will receive B-Lite® light weight breast implant. Participants will be followed up at 1, 6, 12 and 24 months, and all patients will undergo breast MRI at 6 months. The primary goal of the present study is to evaluate the failure rate of breast reconstruction (i.e. the need of re-intervention for breast implant removal). Secondary end-points include the overall complications rate, MRI evaluation of breast implant and surrounding tissues, cosmetic outcomes and quality of life including participants' satisfaction with breast reconstruction.
Aim of the study is to investigate whether intra-surgical visualisation of malignoma reduces the resection rate in the case of R1 resection compared to the procedure without sonographic visualisation
Pyrotinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting both HER-1 and HER-2 receptors.This study is a single-arm, prospective, open label clinical study for evaluating the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant pyrotinib and trastuzumab plus docetaxel given as neoadjuvant treatment in HER2 positive early stage or locally advanced breast cancer.
The study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of liquid crystal contact thermography in detecting pathological changes in female breasts compared to standard diagnostic methods.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Apatinib Combined With Paclitaxel and Carbopatin Intensive Regimen in Neoadjuvant Therapy for Locally Advanced Triple-negative Breast patients
