Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of 6 mg melatonin daily for 1 week preoperatively to 12 weeks postoperatively on depressive symptoms, anxiety, cognitive function and sleep disturbances in breast cancer patients. Furthermore the investigators will examine whether a specific clock-gene (HPER3) is correlated with an increased risk of depression, sleep disturbances or cognitive dysfunction.
Patients have been asked to participate in the CEASE study because their treating oncologist has recommended that they start an aromatase inhibitor medication. These medications are associated with joint complaints. The purpose of this study is to see whether a computer-based educational module is a feasible intervention to help address these symptoms. If the patients agree to participate, a research coordinator will test their grip strength and give them a computer log-on code. They will be shown how to log-on to complete the educational module and a few simple questionnaires. Patients have the option to do this from home if they wish. In 3 months time, the investigators will ask patients to return to the clinic and have another grip strength evaluation and complete some additional questionnaires. The computer module and the follow up visit will each take about 30 minutes of time.
This research trial studies phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase, catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA) mutation analysis in tissue samples from older patients with stage I breast cancer. Studying samples of tissue from patients with stage I breast cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and identify biomarkers related to cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum dose of CP-675,206 when given in combination with radiation. Patients will be given local radiation to one tumor site and an intravenous infusion of CP-675,206.
P276-00 is a novel, potent, small-molecule, flavone-derived Cdk 4 D1, Cdk1 B, and Cdk9 T inhibitor, with potent cytotoxic effects against chemosensitive and chemoresistant cancer cell lines.This study is planned to compare efficacy of the standard chemotherapy regimen of gemcitabine and carboplatin when administered with or without P276-00 in subjects with advanced triple negative breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of metronomic chemotherapy combined with trastuzumab as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced HER2-positive breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether weekly paclitaxel followed by weekly doxorubicin plus daily oral cyclophosphamide without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is feasible in the treatment of locally advanced HER2-negative breast cancer.
This phase II trial is studies how well Akt inhibitor MK2206 works in treating patients with stage I-III breast cancer that can be removed by surgery. Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Observational survey aiming to evaluate the tolerability of Aromasin and the ways in which it is used in clinical practice in France (as adjuvant endocrine therapy).
In first-line metastatic breast cancer, the bevacizumab-taxane to progression or toxicity, is currently the standard treatment. In patients expressing hormone receptors, it was shown that hormone therapy administered in maintenance after induction chemotherapy, could have a benefit regarding the progression-free survival. The investigators make the hypothesis that there would be interest to discontinue treatment with taxane after 4 months, and to begin hormone therapy while continuing maintenance bevacizumab. Exemestane was chosen because it has been shown potentially active in patients who progressed after letrozole, anastrozole or tamoxifen.
