Filter by:To compare the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant aromatase inhibitor plus ovarian suppression with chemotherapy in premenopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of carboplatin compared to the combination of carboplatin and everolimus for the treatment of advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Study close to accrual
Intratumoral plasmid IL-12 electroporation (IT-pIL12-EP) will be administered to approximately 10 patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) with cutaneous or subcutaneous disease. Patients will receive one complete cycle of therapy, consisting of local injection of plasmid IL-12 (pIL-12) followed immediately by electroporation (EP), into accessible tumor lesions. IT-pIL12-EP will be administered in Days 1, 5, and 8 of the single 28-day cycle.
This phase II trial studies how well nab-paclitaxel and atezolizumab before surgery work in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer (breast cancer cells that do not have estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, or large amounts of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 protein). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as nab-paclitaxel, 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. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving nab-paclitaxel and atezolizumab before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. This drug combination before surgery may be an effective treatment for triple negative breast cancer.
This is a multicenter neoadjuvant trial conducted under the sponsorship and overall trial management of the Fondazione Michelangelo in Italy. Women with a diagnosis of invasive unilateral non metastatic ER-positive breast cancer expressing HER2 and suitable for neoadjuvant therapy Patients in this study will receive: Trastuzumab+Pertuzumab+Palbociclib with or without Fulvestrant (HPPF) Trastuzumab 8 mg/kg loading dose IV, then 6 mg/kg IV q.3 wks (repeat for a total of 6 administrations) Pertuzumab 840 mg loading dose IV, then 420 mg IV q. 3 wks (repeat for a total of 6 administrations) Palbociclib 125 mg po q.d. x 21 q. 4 wks (= 1 cycle; repeat for a total of 5 cycles) Fulvestrant will be given intra-muscle at the dose of 500 mg every 4 weeks (repeat for 5 times) with an additional 500 mg dose given two weeks after the initial dose (total administrations including the additional one = 6) The total duration of neoadjuvant palbociclib (5 cycles every 4 weeks) and fulvestrant (5 administrations every 4 weeks plus the additional dose given two weeks after the initial dose) was selected to match as closely as possible the total duration of the six planned 3-weekly administrations of trastuzumab and pertuzumab Definitive surgery will be performed not earlier than 14 days and not later than 28 days after the last dose of any of the drugs in the combination reported above After completion of the neoadjuvant and surgical treatment patients will receive irradiation as locally acceptable. Patients will also continue to receive systemic drug therapy including chemotherapy (plus standard anti-HER2 treatment until completion of full 1 year if HER2 3+ or neu amplified, i.e. cohorts A and B) and endocrine therapy according to local guidelines at the Investigator's discretion.
The purpose of this study is to see how many patients develop hair, skin and nail changes due to cancer treatments. The investigators would like to study the clinical factors, genetic markers, and impact on patients' health-related quality of life to learn more about who is at greater risk. We trust that the study will improve our understanding of how cancer patients feel about their skin, hair, and nail conditions. This information will help us determine the burden on breast cancer patients and survivors. It will also help us learn how to prevent these conditions and it may improve the way we treat them and counsel patients.
This is a cohort study of women with suspected or confirmed recurrent breast cancer, with accessible tumor by standard clinical biopsy, prior to starting a new therapy for recurrent metastatic disease. Study participants will be ascertained from the population of all persons greater than eighteen years of age receiving care at the clinical practices of the Rowan Breast Center (RBC) at the University of Pennsylvania. The overarching goal of this study is to identify the genetic and molecular markers of molecular evolution identified in patients who have progressed from a primary diagnosis of breast cancer to recurrent, metastatic disease. As an observational study, this study seeks to gather data regarding the molecular and genetic changes that a primary cancer undergoes as a patient's cancer recurs and ultimately progresses. We anticipate enrolling 600 women with recurrent breast cancer who meet eligibility requirements for this study. Participation in this study will include the following: a biopsy and blood collection, completion of the study questionnaire, an optional bone marrow aspiration, and repeat collection of blood, offer of a research biopsy and a optional bone marrow aspirate collection at each progression time point. The study participants' medical information will be updated and changes in disease status will be captured on a regular basis.
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and its definite diagnose is still challenge for radiologist. This study is going to evaluate multi-b value diffusion weighted imaging in discrimination of breast benign and malignant lesions and explore the diagnostic effect of the combination of multi-parameter. At the same time, pathological specimens of patients will be collected. The relationship between magnetic resonance(MR) parameters and pathology biomarkers will be evaluated. Hope multi-b value diffusion weighted imaging can improve diagnosis for breast lesion and provide the basis for clinical treatment. The fundamental of pathology on MR signal change will be further expounded.
"Increasing Access of Latinas into Breast Cancer Clinical Trials" aims to develop and pilot test a multi-communications approach - using a culturally relevant computer video, a tailored booklet and a patient navigator (PN) - to empower Latinas to make informed decisions about breast cancer clinical trials (BCCTs). Latinos represent 15% of the U.S. population but only 5.6% of participants in National Cancer Institute (NCI) treatment clinical trials, resulting in disparities in cancer outcomes and jeopardizing the generalizability of trial findings. In response, this study will develop and evaluate communication and health-system-change strategies to facilitate Latinas' access to BCCTs at the Cancer Therapy and Research Center at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (CTRC-UTHSCSA). The CTRC-UTHSCSA, an NCI-designated Cancer Center located in South Texas, serves a culturally and ethnically diverse population that historically has low participation in clinical trials, especially among those with breast cancer, the No. 1 cancer killer of Latinas.
This observational, multicenter survey is designed to assess the efficacy of oral ibandronate in adults with breast cancer and metastatic bone disease. Data on the use of ibandronate in clinical practice will be collected from Hungarian patients.
