Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of resistive exercise on forearm blood flow and tissue oxygenation among breast cancer survivors with or at risk for breast cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL).
A Phase I, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of F-627 in female breast cancer patients who received up to 4 cycles of Epirubicin and Cyclophosphamide. 18 patients (6 patients each cohort) were assigned to three escalated dose cohorts of 80, 240 and 320 µg/kg.
This is a prospective, non-interventional, single arm study, which is examining doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (AC) once every 2 weeks with lipegfilgrastim support in early breast cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy works in treating patients with breast cancer that has not spread beyond the breast or the axillary lymph nodes (early-stage) after surgery. Radiation therapy uses a type of energy to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Brachytherapy is a type of internal radiation therapy that provides radiation inside the breast to any remaining tumor cells next to the space where the tumor was removed, and is given over a shorter amount of time than standard radiation therapy. Giving accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy may reduce the overall time that radiation is delivered to the tumor cells.
This is a Phase I, open-label, dose escalation study. MSI-1436 will be administered as a single intravenous infusion twice a week for 3 weeks on a 4-week cycle.
Combined estrogen and progestin therapy has been shown to increase mammographic density and incidence of breast cancer in randomized trials. We propose to examine the effects of now commonly used low-dose combined hormone therapy (HT) regimens on breast density, rates of abnormal mammogram, and circulating estrogens in the ongoing, already-funded Kronos Early Estrogen Prevention Study (KEEPS). KEEPS is a randomized clinical trial with a primary goal of examining the effects of low-dose transdermal versus oral estrogen combined with cyclic micronized progesterone on progression of subclinical atherosclerosis in recently menopausal women. Prior studies of low-dose HT have been of short duration and small size. By determining the effects of low-dose hormone therapy on the breast, the proposed ancillary study will add important information about the estimated balance of risks and benefits associated with low-dose HT and will help guide future research trials.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether weekly SMS reminders are effective in improving medication adherence of adjuvant aromatase inhibitors in women with breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HepaSphere interventional therapy using digital subtraction angiography(DSA)for breast cancer.
This study on women with breast cancer during and after chemo- and hormonal therapy compares the effect of different physical training programs on physical and mental well-being and systemic inflammation mechanisms in blood. In a sub-group of participants, mitochondrial biogenesis and function and other molecular processes in skeletal muscle biopsies are studied. The women will be randomly allocated into three different intervention arms, a control arm with usual care and two different training arms. All participants will respond to questionnaires and have blood samples and taken and for a subgroup muscle biopsies before and after the exercise intervention. Participants will be supported to uphold exercise through collaboration with Friskis & Svettis and followed for 5 years. Some of the women will also be asked to participate in an in depth interview about the experiences of exercise during ongoing treatment. This study will contribute to increased knowledge about the type, intensity and frequency of training that patients with breast cancer benefit most from with regards to impact on physical and mental wellbeing. This knowledge is of great importance since experience shows that patients and relatives often seek information about rehabilitation, self-care and physical activity. The study will also contribute to the improvement of the patients´ quality of life, ability to return to work, and reduce social costs, but above all, increase the possibility for development and implementation of evidence-based rehabilitation of women with breast cancer during and after active treatment.
This randomized clinical trial studies a support group program in improving quality of life in underserved urban Latina breast cancer survivors. A psychosocial support group program may help reduce distress and improve health-related quality of life in underserved urban Latina breast cancer survivors.
