Filter by:Primary purpose : To develop a method to automatically extract and structure the information included in numerous medical records from breast cancer patients. Secondary purpose : With this procedure we can analyze the content of ten thousand anonymized textual medical records. This information should enable us to explore many subjects, such as: - The impact of certain therapeutic procedures - The characteristics of sub-groups of patients - Pregnancy associated breast cancers - Risk factors
Breast cancer is the most frequent malignancy in the female population Brazilian, except non-melanoma skin tumors. Surgery plays an important role in regional spot disease control and the definition of parameters for the adjuvant treatment indication. Surgical site infections (SSI) are defined as wound infections occur following invasive procedures, corresponding to 14-16% of all infections nosocomial in hospitalized patients, the most common among patients surgical. SSIs should be examined as potential wound contamination surgical, understood as the number of micro-organisms in the body and / or tissue being operated. Considering this aspect, the cancer surgery breast are classified by their potential for contamination by clean. The use of antibiotics to prevent the SSI in mastectomies is not standardized in Handbook of National Health Surveillance Agency due to the effectiveness of undocumented prophylaxis Thus the use of antibiotics may vary among services. So this randomized clinical trial to evaluate the influence of the use of Prophylactic antibiotics in SSI rates in oncological breast surgery.
The purpose of this study is to test a program designed to increase African American and Hispanic American women's scientific literacy, knowledge of clinical trials, and to facilitate breast cancer clinical trial participation.
The investigators' preclinical data have demonstrated the feasibility of fluorescence-guided tumor resection by Cancer Vision Goggles (CVG) with LS301 in animal models. In this study, the investigators will conduct intraoperative imaging procedures that have minimal interference with ongoing surgery. The underlying hypothesis is that the accurate detection of all cancer cells highlighted by LS301 during surgery will reduce the number of breast cancer patients with margin positivity to less than 5%, compared to the current surgical paradigm of greater than 20%. The pilot study will obtain critical data required to address the larger question of surgical margin assessment in a full Phase I clinical trial. Phase 1: to determine the safety and optimal imaging dose of LS301 injected in breast cancer patients. Phase 2: to determine the ability of this novel fluorescence imaging agent to predict the presence of positive margins around partial mastectomy specimens and positive SLNs during surgical therapy for breast cancer.
Prospective, randomized, open label, two arms,, phase 0 clinical trial. HER2-negative breast cancer patients recently diagnosed will be screened for trial participation. A biopsy will be scheduled the week prior to or the same day as the FDG PET. Paraffin-embedded tumor samples will be used to evaluate the stainings of Ki67, cleaved caspase-3 and microvessels, and frozen tumor samples will be used to evaluate SDH staining. The FDG-PET will be followed by the bevacizumab dose (15 mg/kg IV, single dose). After one week, the PET will be repeated in order to detect the patients that have experienced FDG uptake decay. Right after, treatment with ME-344 (arm 1) or no treatment (arm 2) will start. ME-344 will be administered at 10 mg/kg on day 8, 15 and 22. Surgery will be performed on day 28 (thus, 4 weeks after the bevacizumab dose, which is considered a safe window for antiangiogenics). Fragments of the surgical specimen will be collected. Paraffin-embedded tumor sample will be used to repeat (and compare) the stainings of Ki67, cleaved caspase-3 and microvessels, and frozen tumor sample will be used to repeat (and compare) SDH staining. Patients will come off trial in case of consent withdrawal, unequivocal disease progression is observed, unacceptable toxicity occurs, or in case of intercurrent disease or any other condition deemed incompatible with continuation in the clinical trial by the investigator.
This study evaluates the feasibility and efficacy of neoadjuvant tamoxifen for patients with locally advanced hormone receptor positive breast cancer in a low/middle income country.
In the NeoAPBI 01 trial, the objective is to demonstrate the efficacy of combined APBI and CT administered sequentially in patients with intermediate ad high risk BC. The hypothesis is that combined PST-sequential APBI may increase the rate of pCR, breast conservation and survival without additional toxicity, as seen with WBI
The purpose of this study is to estimate the efficacy and safety of PEG-rhG-CSF in patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PEG-rhG-CSF in patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy
Breast cancer is a multifactorial disease affecting women, and one of the treatments for its healing and survival is hormone therapy. Aromatase inhibitors are third-generation drugs that promote lower chance of metastasis, but their side effects include the loss of bone mineral density and increased fat percentage. In this way, the Combined Training (combined resistance and endurance training) may be an interesting strategy to minimize the side effects of aromatase inhibitors, providing better quality of life, survival and changes in body composition.
