Filter by:Women with dense breasts (BIRADS 3 or 4) with a BIRADS category 1 or 2 mammogram are asked to participate in a automated volume breast ultrasound scanner. The study evaluates prospectively the changes in recall rate, positive biopsy rate, cancer detection rate when BIRADS category 3 lesions are given a 1 year follow-up recommendation.
The purpose of this study is to see if capecitabine can be taken safely with different doses of lapatinib in patients with HER-2 positive breast cancer involving brain (brain metastases) and/or in spinal fluid (leptomeningeal disease).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the "Smart Management Strategy for Health (SMASH)" program, which is designed to help cancer patients overcome their cancer crisis proactively and grow positively.
This phase Ib trial studies the best way of TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 and cyclophosphamide in treating patients with a solid tumor that has spread from the primary site (place where it started) to other places in the body (metastatic), progressed for a long time (persistent), come back (recurrent), or is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressed). TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 together with cyclophosphamide may be a better treatment for solid tumors.
This is a study of how one or more injections of HSP-130 under the skin effect the white blood cell counts and drug levels in women with breast cancer that has not spread to distant sites in the body (non-metastatic). This will be studied in women before breast surgery or while receiving chemotherapy. Safety will also be studied. Additionally, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects and safety of single and multiple doses of HSP-130 in subjects with non-metastatic breast cancer. This study will determine the dose to move forward for future clinical trials.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of durvalumab that can be tolerated without causing very severe side effects when receiving standard treatment and to see what effects the study drug has on this type of cancer. The researchers doing this study are also interested in looking for markers that will help predict which patients are most likely to be helped by durvalumab when receiving standard treatment and what effects durvalumab has on this type of cancer.
Sixty advanced breast cancer patients are planed to enrolled in this clinical trial. Forty patients are enrolled into thalidomide plus chemotherapy group. Twenty patients are enrolled into chemotherapy alone group. There is no restriction on chemotherapy regimen and lines.
This randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the impact of additional cavity shaving (CS) on pathological cavity margin (CM) status in breast cancer patients. Patients receiving standard breast-conserving surgery (BCS) will be randomized to intra-operative CM assessment versus intra-operative CS followed by CM assessment. The primary objective of this study is to assess the impact of CS on intra-operative CM status, intra-operative re-excision rate, post-operative CM status and re-excision rate, cosmetic outcomes, and on intraoperative time and medical costs.
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab and doxorubicin hydrochloride works compared to pembrolizumab with anti-estrogen therapy (anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane) in treating patients with triple-negative or hormone-receptor positive breast cancer that has spread from the primary site (place where it started) to other places in the body. Pembrolizumab is an antibody drug that blocks a molecule called programmed death (PD)-1. PD-1 is a molecule that shuts down the body's immune responses and prevents the immune system from attacking the cancer. Doxorubicin hydrochloride is a drug used in chemotherapy that works to stop the growth of tumor cells by stopping them from dividing and by causing them to die. Anti-estrogen therapy, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lowers estrogen levels in the body, which may help treat cancer that is hormone receptor-positive. Giving pembrolizumab together with standard treatment of either doxorubicin hydrochloride (triple-negative cancer) or anti-estrogen therapy (hormone receptor-positive cancer) may be an effective treatment for these types of breast cancer.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) vs. Treatment as Usual (TAU) for depression and anxiety symptoms in breast cancer patients in recovery. Investigators will examine whether MBCT-related improvements in sleep quality, illness-related distress, and rumination (escalating cycles of negative thinking) predict MBCT-related decreases in depression and anxiety symptoms (Aim 2). Exploratory analyses will examine whether demographics (e.g., age, sex, race/ethnicity), individual differences (e.g., perceived stress, social support), clinical characteristics (e.g., stage/severity of diagnosis), and treatment adherence (e.g., sessions attended, hours of weekly practice) help determine for whom MBCT is most effective (Aim 3).
