Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well giving pazopanib hydrochloride and anastrozole before surgery works in treating patients with stage II-III estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. Pazopanib hydrochloride and anastrozole may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving pazopanib hydrochloride and anastrozole together before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal cells that have to be removed
SUBMIT is a clinical trial that intends to answer the question whether up front breast surgery in patients with primary distant metastatic breast cancer will result in an improvement of the 2-year survival compared to the survival achieved with systemic therapy and delayed local treatment or systemic therapy alone. Randomization will take place immediately after the diagnosis of primary distant metastatic breast cancer. Patients either randomize for up front surgery of the breast tumor (UFS) followed by systemic therapy or for systemic therapy (ST) potentially followed by delayed local treatment of the breast tumor. The primary endpoint of this trial is the 2-years survival. Quality of life is one of the most important secondary endpoints.
1. Rationale The inter-individual pain experience immediately after surgery is considerable. In addition, a number of patients develop chronic post surgery pain (CPSP). Patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer are at risk of developing both acute post surgical pain as well as CPSP. Recently, in a group of patients with chronic back pain, it was demonstrated how subjectively reported pain is associated with specific electroencephalography (EEG) parameters, namely the N2 and P3 components of the pain event-related potential (ERP). It was concluded that ERP was associated with self-reported pain in daily life up to two weeks after the measurement. This resulted in the current hypothesis that EEG may be a predictor for postoperative pain. 2. Study design Prospective cohort study. Within 2 weeks before surgery, 150 patients will undergo an EEG measurement with five 'vulnerability' tasks. The experiment will be repeated 6 months postoperatively. Study population: Female patients with breast cancer who will undergo breast surgery, between the ages of 18 to 65 years. 3. Main study parameters/endpoints Primary outcome is postoperative pain, measured in a pain diary 4 days postoperatively. Secondary outcomes are development of chronic post surgery pain and quality of life. The main goal is to develop a comprehensive prediction model for acute and chronic postoperative pain after breast cancer surgery, based on the EEG results of the five vulnerability experiments.
Cryoablation is a procedure that uses a hollow, thin tube called a cryoprobe to freeze and destroy cancer tissue. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the level of effectiveness of using ultrasound-guided cryoablation in patients with invasive breast cancer. The safety of this procedure will also be studied.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of eribulin in combination with carboplatin and trastuzumab in the neoadjuvant setting in subjects who are human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)2 positive and are clinically stage IIA to IIIB. The study regimen will be administered every 3 weeks for a total of 6 cycles followed by definitive surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the engraftment, toxicity and anti-tumour activity of allogeneic peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplantation using TLI/ATG conditioning regimen in patients with refractory "Triple Negative" breast cancer.
The humanized monoclonal antibody against Lewis Y antigen (Hu3S193) has been demonstrated to be safe in previous studies and has also been indicated as potential intervention in breast cancer. The study of this new agent in advanced breast cancer may contribute to the development of new strategies for patients that progressed after hormonal treatment.
This phase II trial studies the impact of a presurgical endocrine therapy, consisting of goserelin with letrozole or anastrozole on the treatment of premenopausal patients with stage II-III estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer. Endocrine therapy reduces the amount of estrogen in the body. E+ breast cancer require estrogen, so lower levels of estrogen may slow or stop cell growth. Giving goserelin together with letrozole or anastrozole before surgery may enhance the effectiveness of, or eliminate the need for, chemotherapy
This single-arm, multicenter, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Herceptin (trastuzumab) in combination with whole brain radiotherapy on brain metastases in patients with HER-2 positive breast cancer. The patients will receive Herceptin 4 mg/kg (loading dose) followed by 2 mg/kg for a maximum of 18 weekly cycles. The anticipated time on study treatment is 18 weeks.
This trial will be the first trial for the IP, [F-18]CP-18, and will be conducted as an exploratory Phase I trial designed to collect information as this IP is administered and evaluated for the first time in humans. The trial will evaluate safety, biodistribution and dosimetry data in normal subjects and the trial will evaluate safety, biodistribution and tumor to background imaging data, and correlate image data with caspase 3 activity level on a surgical specimen analyzed by immunohistochemistry in the cancer subjects. All study results will be evaluated and analyzed in order to consider the design for future clinical trials. The information collected under this exploratory, Phase I study will not be used for diagnostic purposes, to assess the subject's response to therapy, or for clinical management of the subject.
