Filter by:The purpose of this pilot study is to compare a new surgical technique (axillary reverse mapping) to standard axillary surgery in patients diagnosed with invasive or in situ breast cancer.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effect and best dose of neratinib and to see how well it works with paclitaxel and with or without pertuzumab and trastuzumab before combination chemotherapy in treating patients with breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Neratinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with pertuzumab and trastuzumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, doxorubicin, and 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 neratinib, pertuzumab, trastuzumab, paclitaxel and combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with breast cancer.
This is a phase II multicenter study including breast cancer patients with chest wall disease that is hormone resistant (estrogen receptor (ER) positive/progesterone receptor (PR) positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer with progressive disease on 2 prior lines of hormonal therapy) or triple negative (ER negative/PR negative/HER2 negative, TNBC). Eighty-four patients will be enrolled at Translational Breast Cancer Research Consortium (TBCRC) sites and will be randomized 2:1 to receive treatment with pembrolizumab and carboplatin (n=56, Arm A) or carboplatin alone (n=28, Arm B) until documented disease progression. Patients randomized to Arm B may cross-over following progression to pembrolizumab with or without carboplatin at investigator's discretion (Arm Bx). Patients may have received any number of prior lines of chemotherapy. Patients in Arm A will be treated with pembrolizumab 200 mg IV and carboplatin area under curve (AUC) 5 IV every 3 weeks for at least 6 cycles followed by maintenance pembrolizumab 200 mg IV every 3 weeks if stable or responding disease. Patients in Arm B will be treated with carboplatin AUC 5 IV every 3 weeks until progression, whereupon they may cross-over to pembrolizumab 200 mg IV every 3 weeks with or without carboplatin at investigator's discretion (Arm Bx). An interim analysis for futility will be performed after 18 patients are enrolled into Arm B to allow early stopping of that trial arm for lack of efficacy. The primary endpoint is to compare disease control rates at 18 weeks of treatment. Secondary endpoints include progression free survival, toxicity, and overall response rate.
Status - CLOSED TO PATIENT ENROLLMENT (CNPE) The study is being conducted in patients in which breast cancer has come back after standard treatment. Volunteers in this research study are treated using special immune system cells called tumor-associated antigen (TAA)-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes, a new experimental therapy. The proteins that investigators are targeting in this study are called tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). These are cell proteins that are specific to the cancer cell. They do not show, or they show up in low quantities, on normal human cells. In this study, investigators target five common TAAs. They are called NY-ESO-1, MAGEA4, PRAME, Survivin and SSX2. On a different study, patients have been treated and so far this treatment has shown to be safe. Investigators now want to try this treatment in patients with breast cancer. These TAA-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (TAA-CTLs) are an investigational product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of TAA-specific CTLs, to learn what the side-effects are, and to see whether this therapy might help patients with breast cancer.
This study develops and pilot tests the efficacy of a home-based, self-administered acupressure intervention in improving cancer-related fatigue (proximal outcome), and physical functioning and other quality of life outcomes (distal outcomes) of Chinese immigrant breast cancer survivors (versus usual care control group).
Up to 30 evaluable participants with known or suspected breast cancer (BIRADS 5 by imaging) will undergo FTT PET/CT imaging before primary surgery or neoadjuvant therapy. Patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapy may choose to have a second FTT PET/CT scan after the start of therapy (1 days to 3 weeks). FTT PET/CT uptake will be correlated with pathology measures and treatment response, in subjects undergoing neoadjuvant therapy
Pyrotinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting both HER-1 and HER-2 receptors. This study is a randomized,open-label,multi-center,active-controlled, parallel design study of the combination of pyrotinib and capecitabine versus Lapatinib plus capecitabine in HER2+ MBC patients, who have prior received taxane and trastuzumab.Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of the following treatment arms.Arm A: pyrotinib (400 mg once daily) + capecitabine (1000 mg/m^2 twice daily),Arm B: Lapatinib (1250 mg once daily) + capecitabine (1000 mg/m^2 twice daily).Patients will receive either arm of therapy until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawalof consent.
This study is a randomized, open-label, multicentric, phase III trial conducted in patients receiving aromatase inhibitor and palbociclib as first line therapy for estrogen receptor (ER)-positive HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer and which aims to evaluate, at the onset of ESR1 mutations in circulating tumor DNA, the efficacy of a change of the hormone therapy (aromatase inhibitor (AI) changed to fulvestrant) combined to palbociclib, together with the safety of hormone therapy and palbociclib combination in the overall population.
This phase II trial studies how well hypofractionated partial breast irradiation works in treating patients with early stage breast cancer. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Treating only the part of the breast where the cancer started may lead to fewer side effects than standard treatment.
A prospective multicentre study which aims to examine the relationship between intratumour heterogeneity (ITH) and pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with histological confirmation of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who are eligible for neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
