Filter by:Enrolled women will undergo a bilateral Contrast-Enhanced Breast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CE-BMRI) as per usual clinical practice within 30 days of breast cancer diagnosis. Up to 8 weeks after the CE-BMRI exam, subjects will undergo a Dual Energy Contrast Enhanced Digital Mammograph (DE-CEDM).
Cipatinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting both HER-1 and HER-2 receptors. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of cipatinib in patients with HER2 positive or uncertain advanced breast cancer: 1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of cipatinib, and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) 2. To determine the pharmacokinetic profile of cipatinib and its metabolites 3. To assess preliminary antitumor activity 4. To determine preliminary regimen for phase II study 5. To determine the relation of expression of HER-1 and HER-2 to the antitumor activity.
The primary objective is to evaluate the difference in cardiac strain rate evolution in elderly early BC patients treated with (neo) adjuvant anthracycline-based chemotherapy compared with a non-anthracycline regimen (Taxotere-cyclophosphamide) CT. This study also will compare the serum biomarkers profile during and after the (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, assess whether MRI allows detecting earlier than standard echocardiography the signs of cardiotoxicity, during and after adjuvant (neo) CT, assess whether brain PET-CT allows detecting regional functional impairment in patients receiving CT, evaluate cognitive function before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate distress and functional autonomy before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate psychological state and burden of primary caregivers before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate primary caregivers abilities to detect patients' distress and functional autonomy before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate the short and long-term toxicity profile of the regimens, estimate the 10-year risk of relapse and/or death using the Adjuvant!Online tool, and estimate the Framingham risk score for Hard Coronary Heart Disease (10-year risk).
This is a study to determine the prevalence and severity of alopecia (hair loss) experienced by postmenopausal breast cancer patients receiving endocrine therapy including Tamoxifen, Letrozole (Femara), Exemestane (Aromasin), or Anastrozole (Arimidex).
This single arm. open-label study will assess the efficacy and safety of Herceptin (trastuzumab) in combination with Xeloda (capecitabine) in patients with metastatic or recurrent HER2-positive breast cancer, refractory to or relapsing after chemotherapy with Herceptin and taxanes. Patients will receive Xeloda 900mg/m2 twice daily orally on days 1-14 of each 3-week cycle and Herceptin 8mg/kg intravenously (iv) on day 1 of the first cycle followed by 6mg/kg iv every 3 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of lapatinib ditosylate and Akt inhibitor MK2206 in treating women with metastatic breast cancer. Lapatinib ditosylate and Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the current patterns of care for patients with hormone-receptor-positive, advanced breast cancer who have failed one prior endocrine therapy in Brazil. To investigate patient-related, disease-related and physician-related characteristics that correlate with the use of either endocrine treatment or chemotherapy in such patients. And to evaluate patients' understanding of the treatment options and their participation in the choice.
This single arm, prospective, observational study will assess the correlation between the time from start of chemotherapy to the start of Avastin (bevacizumab) treatment with progression-free survival in patients with previously untreated metastatic breast cancer. Patients will be followed for up to 12 months after progressive disease occurs.
The investigators will study the effect of 12 months of SDG (Brevail) vs placebo on women at increased risk for development of breast cancer.
Lymph node biopsy followed by axillary reverse mapping may reduce the incidence and severity of arm lymphedema. This randomized phase II trial is studying how well sentinel and/or axillary lymph node biopsy with or without axillary reverse mapping works in reducing incidence and severity of lymphedema in patients with resectable stage 0-II breast cancer
