Filter by:The overall objective of the proposed research is to pilot test the feasibility and acceptability of a set of more scalable technology-supported physical activity promotion intervention strategies in breast cancer survivors using tMultiphase Optimization Strategy Trial (MOST) methodology. MOST involves highly efficient randomized experimentation to assess the effects of individual intervention strategies, and thereby identify which strategies and what strategy levels make the important contributions to the overall program's effect on physical activity. This information then guides assembly of an optimized physical activity program, that achieves target outcomes with least resource consumption and participant burden. The resulting intervention will have great potential for scalability because it uses technology (smartphones) participants already own and requires no on-site visits.
This study is prospective cohort study to investigate and identify comprehensively the clinicopathological features and long-term outcome of young breast cancer (YBC). We have enrolled Breast cancer patients under 40 year-old and collected their baseline characteristics including tumor character, familiar history and other background information. Moreover, we have collected breast cancer tissue/blood sample for analyzing genetic characteristics, if patient agree to genetic analysis.
A phase II prospective, randomized control trial assessing the impact of "invisible ink" ultra-violet (UV) tattoo ink versus conventional black tattoo ink for radiotherapy treatment localization on the quality of life of breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant radiotherapy. The effect of tattoo type on quality of life will be measured objectively using the externally validated body-image satisfaction (BIS) scale as the primary outcome of interest, with secondary endpoints including: accuracy/reproducibility of radiotherapy setup using the invisible ink tattoos, resource impact requirements, and clinical feasibility. A sample size of 60 patients is planned (30 per study arm) with an anticipated accrual period of 18 months.
Axillary lymph node status is a vital prognostic factor in breast cancer patients and provides crucial information for making treatment decisions. Ultrasound test with subsequent fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy in nodes with suspicious features remains the standard of axillary lymph node workup. Insufficient sampling and limited diagnostic accuracy of cytological test compromise the outcome the preoperative lymph node staging strategy especially in patients with intermediate suspicious nodes. This prospective study is to compare the performance of a crpo-assisted core biopsy with FNA.
This research study is studying a drug called Abemaciclib as a possible treatment for have metastatic triple-negative type of breast cancer.
This phase I/II trial studies side effects and best dose of copanlisib when given together with letrozole and palbociclib and to see how well they work in treating hormone receptor positive HER2 negative stage I-IV breast cancer. Copanlisib and palbociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs, such as letrozole, may lessen the amount of estrogen made by the body. Giving copanlisib, letrozole, and palbociclib may work better in treating patients with breast cancer.
The standard treatment of localized breast cancers consists of surgical removal of the tumor at the breast or removal of the entire breast and lymph nodes (sentinel lymph node and / or axillary dissection) with or without chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy on the breast or thoracic wall and the lymph node areas from 5 to 6.5 weeks. Shorter radiotherapy treatments over 3 weeks for breast cancer without lymph node involvement have been equally effective and have no more side effects in several clinical trials involving several thousand patients. This called hypofractionated radiotherapy has become a standard for breast cancers in the absence of lymph node involvement in postmenopausal women. The objective of the HypoG01 trial is to evaluate hypofractionated radiotherapy in women who require radiotherapy in the breast or chest wall and lymph node areas by comparing standard over 5 to 6.5 weeks and hypofractionated irradiation over 3 weeks analyzing the possible side effects and in particular the risk of lymphedema (swelling of the arm on the side treated) and the effectiveness of these treatments
The overarching objective of this study is to close clinical knowledge and performance gaps by providing oncology clinicians with the latest advances and emerging research in the evidence-based and personalized treatment of metastatic breast cancer patients. In addition, the research team seeks to meet quality measures relevant to value-based care delivery through IT infrastructure and clinical workflow processes. The research team also hopes to gain insights into clinician practice patterns related to metastatic breast cancer, and the correlation between the reported goals of care for patients with metastatic breast cancer, and the patients' fit/frailty status and treatment decisions.
This is a non-randomized, prospective phase II trial evaluating an innovative treatment, focused MRI-guided ultrasound, as thermic destruction in primitive small size breast cancer.
This is a single arm, Phase IIA clinical trial assessing the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with paclitaxel, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab in 50 patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic HER2-overexpressing breast cancer. Due to concerns that corticosteroids may have a negative effect on tumor immunity expected with addition of atezolizumab to the standard of care regimen, patients will receive premedication with dexamethasone only for weeks 1 and 2 of the weekly paclitaxel, and then corticosteroid premedication will be discontinued subsequently. Patients must have pathologically confirmed HER2-overexpressing breast cancer that is locally recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic, with measurable disease as defined by RECIST v1.1. Tumor measurements and bone scans will be performed every 9 weeks while patients are on study.
