Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well hypofractionated radiation therapy works in treating participants with breast cancer before surgery. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects.
The purpose of this study is to find out how effective the combination of crizotinib and fulvestrant is in shrinking lobular breast cancer tumours. The investigators will also be assessing the side effects of the combination of crizotinib tablets and fulvestrant injections. The side effects and the doses of crizotinib and fulvestrant have already been evaluated in large clinical trials, but this is the first time these two drugs will be combined together.
This phase I trial studies how well anti-PD-L1/TGFbetaRII fusion protein M7824 (M7824) works in treating patients with stage II-III HER2 positive breast cancer. Immunotherapy with M7824 may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This study is being done to find out if a new series of evaluations called the SAE (Sensory-Attention-Executive) Battery can help researchers learn more about how cancer treatment does or does not change the way the brain processes/filters information, emotions, attention span, and behavior by comparing the results of the SAE Battery with traditional evaluations like questionnaires.
The combination of chemotherapy with PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade agents demonstrated promising results especially in the neo-adjuvant and early metastatic setting in TNBC. However, a substantial proportion of patients do not derive benefit from this approach. CD73 is an adenosine-generating enzyme overexpressed in several cancers and associated with poor prognosis and reduced anti-tumor immunity in TNBC. Monoclonal antibodies directed against CD73 could help to reprogram the tumor microenvironement by decreasing the adenosine mediated immunosuppression, particularly as a synergistic immunotherapeutic combination with immune checkpoint blockade. The SYNERGY trial investigates the role of an anti-CD73 (MEDI9447) in a randomized phase II trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the combination of chemotherapy (paclitaxel + carboplatin) with immunotherapy (durvalumab [anti-PD-L1] +/- MEDI9447 [anti-CD73]) in previously untreated locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC. A large translational research program is planned including baseline and dynamic biomarkers
This is a randomized phase III trial in women with invasive carcinoma of the breast with negative axillary nodes treated by Breast Conserving Surgery (BCS). Eligible, patients will be randomly allocated to receive radiotherapy of 3 Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy (3DCRT) Whole Breast Irradiation (WBI) 50 Gray (Gy) in 25 daily fractions over 5 weeks or Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (APBI) 38.5 Gy in 10 daily fractions of 3.85Gy over two weeks or 38.5 Gy in 10 twice daily fractions of 3.85Gy over one week. Patients will be followed at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months post randomization. Cosmetic outcome will be measured using photographs and evaluated by a panel of trained radiation oncologists. Radiation toxicity will be assessed using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE).
A Phase 1 Dose Escalation and Expansion Study of AZD9833 Alone or in Combination in Women with ER Positive, HER2 Negative Advanced Breast Cancer (SERENA-1)
The Adventist Health Study-2 is a long-term study, exploring the links between lifestyle, diet, and disease outcomes among Seventh-day Adventists. More than 96,000 church members from the U.S. and Canada are participating in the current study, AHS-2, conducted by researchers at the Loma Linda University School of Public Health.
A survey study to evaluate the financial impact of breast cancer as self-reported by breast cancer patients over a period of 1 year. The study will also look at the health insurance literacy and patient's utilization of support services.
The investigators proposed approach allows them to deliver a low total dose of radiation to patients with low-risk, early-stage breast cancer which would further minimize the impact of adjuvant therapy. This work has the potential to revolutionize partial breast irradiation by allowing it to take place at many radiation oncology centers with minimal specialized equipment beyond that commonly available. The investigators first step is this proposed single institution phase I/II study designed primarily to evaluate the tolerance of this approach which the investigators are choosing to call Three Fraction APBI (Tri-APBI).
