The trialed investigational medical imaging device is a low-power microwave breast imaging system for cancer screening purposes. It is an active device which uses non-ionizing radiation. Microwave imaging is an emerging imaging modality for the early detection of the breast cancer. The physical basis of microwave imaging is the dielectric contrast between healthy and cancerous breast tissues at microwave frequencies. Microwave imaging can potentially be used for monitoring neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment, breast health monitoring, and for routine screening and diagnosis of the breast cancer at the early-stage. The non-invasive and the non-ionizing characteristics of microwaves should allow for frequent scans of the breast using microwave imaging, unlike X-ray mammography. In addition to safety, microwave imaging does not require uncomfortable breast compression and it is potentially a lower-cost modality. This is a first-in-human clinical test of the investigational device, which has been so far tested only with experimental phantoms modelling the human female breast. The clinical data that will be collected in the context of this study is intended to provide early safety information for the investigational medical imaging device. In addition, this exploratory data will guide the refinement of the device hardware and the imaging algorithm design, before decision to proceed (or not) with further clinical tests. Furthermore, this study will be used to guide sample size calculation for a subsequent study designed to evaluate efficacy should that appear warranted once this study is completed.
Study Purpose: A multicenter prospective study to evaluate the outcome of second breast cancer surveillance with abbreviated breast MR (AB-MR) or ultrasound (US) in addition to annual mammography in women with BRCA1/2 mutation testing Study Scheme: - AB-MR, US, and digital mammography will be performed on the same day and interpreted independently at baseline and then after 1 year. - After completion of study, patients are followed-up for at least 1 year.
This study focuses on whether or not physical activity and sleep quality correlate with the health of prostate and breast cancer patients. The activity data will be acquired using wearable actigraphy devices, which the subjects will wear for the duration of seven days. The sleep quality will be measured using a combination of actigraphy and the mandarin version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ). By using this combination, the investigators will not only measure the objective physical activity while the patient is asleep, but also the subjective sleep quality. The questionnaire will also function as control data for the accuracy of the actigraphy device. This study will recruit approximately 30 breast or prostate cancer patients. The participants will wear a wearable actigraphy device for 7 consecutive days, which will provide accurate and objective movement and sleep data. This data is linked to a unique Identification number (ID), which will be noted in the participant's case report. This case report also contains the participant's information and answers to the questionnaires.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminarily evaluate the effectiveness of Plasmodium immunotherapy for advanced breast cancers and advanced liver cancers.The treatment will last 4-6 weeks from the day of successful infection and will be terminated by antimalarial drugs.
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women worldwide, and is the leading cause of death from cancer among women globally. Mammography is the standard method for early detection of BC in many countries, with over 1.3 million annually new diagnosed cases.In Egypt, breast cancer is the most common cancer in females accounting for 38.8% of all female cancers.
This is a single arm, pilot study assessing safety/feasibility and efficacy of neo-adjuvant glembatumumab vedotin (GV) in patients with high risk triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) with glycoprotein-NMB (gpNMB) expression ≥ 25%. Primary endpoints will be safety/feasibility, and secondary endpoints will be rates of pathologic complete response (pCR), and measurements of growth differentiation factor-11 (GDF11) and glycoprotein NMB (gpNMB) expression.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and side effects of combining entinostat, an investigational drug, with capecitabine, a drug commonly used in breast cancer (BC), in both participants with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and then participants with high-risk breast cancer after neo-adjuvant therapy.
The project is imbued with the whole problematic of patient follow-up and patient support, taking into account the experiences and needs of breast cancer patients. It concerns the dissemination of knowledge through the implementation of a specific clinical innovation designed to optimizing breast cancer patient pathway. The " Patients en réseau " association offers us to participate at the web platform evolution Mon Réseau Cancer du Sein in adapting it. The feasibility study focuses on (1) the platform utilization and (2) sources and obstacles to its utilization in the French context
To assess feasibility of postoperative IMRT with concomitant boost in moderate-high risk breast cancer in terms of late toxicity and local control
