Filter by:Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumor in women. About 60% of breast cancer patients are still in premenopausal status at the time of diagnosis in China. It is a multicenter prospective observational study. We will collect basic information, medical history, chemotherapy-related adverse reactions, and the results of hormone, blood lipid, and bone density test before, during and after adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of chemotherapy on ovarian function and fertility and the protective effect of GnRHa. In addition, the collected information of the subjects are analyzed to provide suggestions for the relevant prevention strategy.
This early phase I pilot trial studies how well 64Cu-DOTA-alendronate positron emission tomography (PET) imaging work in localizing and characterizing breast calcifications (small calcium deposits) in participants before undergoing mastectomy. Diagnostic procedures, such 64Cu-DOTA-alendronate PET, may detect calcification and help doctors predict cancer associated calcification within breast tissue.
This is a randomized pilot study to better understand the relationships among insomnia, weight loss, and breast cancer. This study will assess the effectiveness of a sleep intervention prior to a web- and phone-based weight loss program.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of a study drug called Rucaparib, administered in combination with the type of radiation therapy that is usually given to women with your form of breast cancer.
What Comes After Fulvestrant? A Real World Multicenter Retrospective Study-Treatment After Progression of Fulvestrant Among Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients in China.
Internal Mammary Lymph Node (IMLN) and Axillary Lymph Node (ALN) are regarded as "the first station" of lymphatic drainage in breast cancer, serving as an important reference for lymph staging and decision-making. Although the concept of Internal Mammary Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (IM-SLNB) has been included in the AJCC guidelines since the 6th edition, technical bottlenecks and clinical benefits still remained to be the main reasons limiting its clinical application: Technical bottlenecks: In previous clinical practice, the internal mammary visualization rate was very low (13% on average, 0% -37%) under the guidance of the traditional radionuclide injection technique, which became a technology bottleneck restricting the widespread of IM-SLNB. After continuous exploration, our center invented the "modified injection technique" of injecting the nuclide tracer into the mammary gland layer at 6 and 12 o'clock around the areolar under the guidance of ultrasound, as well as increasing the injection volume to increase the local tension. A high internal mammary imaging rate of 71% was obtained, which laid a foundation for the further study and clinical application of IM-SLNB. Clinical benefits: The IM-SLNB is a method to assess IMLN metastatic status in a minimally invasive way, which may improve the system of regional staging and guide precise IMLN treatment. However, based on the current IM-SLNB indication, the internal mammary metastasis rate was only 8%-15%, and it only had little influence on treatment strategy, which led to the controversy of its clinical application. Previous studies of extended radical mastectomy showed that in ALN positive patients the IMLN metastasis rate was 28-52%, while in ALN negative patients the metastasis rate was only 5-17%. Therefore, the continuation of the previous A-SLNB indication (clinical ALN negative) to IM-SLNB is apparently not in line with the current clinical practice, but further evaluation of internal mammary metastasis status in clinical ALN positive patients may receive greater benefit. This prospective multicenter study attempted to perform IM-SLNB with our modified injection technique both in clinical ALN negative and positive patients for the first time. Through analyzing metastasis rate of IMLN as well as the influences it had on decision making, we hoped to develop more accurate indication for IM-SLNB and guide the individualized precise treatment of IMLN.
The purpose of the study is to find best post-operative rehabilitation protocol after total mastectomy and immediate reconstruction with tissue expander insertion. This study compared outcomes of two post-operative rehabilitation protocols ; "conventional protocol", which immobilized shoulder and upper arm motion for a month and "early rehabilitation protocol" with short-term immobilization period and early mobilization.
Object:The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of sticking and massaging auricular points for the management of hot flashes in postoperative breast cancer patients.
A single-institutional cohort to determine the prevalence of new immunohistochemical panel in advanced triple-negative submitted to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and its association with response and survival.
Music and music therapy are now widely used as non-pharmacological intervention techniques in different clinical and therapeutic settings. The present study includes the use of musical listening related to the concept of "Music Medicine", a possibility of modifying the psycho-physiological state of the patient through the targeted use of musical pieces respondent to specific parameters and musical structures able to interact in particular conditions with the psycho-somatic imbalances to which the person is subjected. In particular, in this study, in addition to proposing a traditional listening method, the music used in one of the research arms will be composed of an artificial intelligence called "Melomics-Health". The objective of the study is to verify whether the perception of anxiety and stress in cancer patients undergoing Radiotherapy is influenced by music listening ("Melomics-Health" music vs listening to favorite music). Sixty breast cancer surgical patients, candidates for post-operative radiotherapy with a healing purpose. Patients who will undergo Radiation therapy for the first time in their lives will be included. Patients will be recruited in this randomized controlled study with a sequential enrollment and, in the case of inclusion, will be assigned to one of the following 3 groups: a) "Melomics-Health" music listening group (n = 20); b) favorite music listening group (n = 20); c) no-music control group (n = 20). Music groups will undergo 15 minutes music listening immediately before the simulation and the first 5 sessions of radiotherapy. Patients will be subjected to a psychological assessment focused on anxiety (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory) and distress (Psychological Distress Inventory) dimensions at the baseline (T0), at the end of the treatments (T1) and at the Follow-up (T2, 2 weeks after the fifth session of Radiotherapy). A specific questionnaire will also be submitted to the patients included in music groups. This questionnaire will allow the music therapist to acquire specific qualitative information regarding the different types of music listening and the responses of the subjects to them. Descriptive statistics will be produced for all the variables detected.The effectiveness of musical listening in relation to the psychological aspects considered will be evaluated by applying analysis of variance models.
