Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical activity of AVE1642 in combination with fulvestrant and of fulvestrant alone in terms of clinical benefit as the rate of "complete response", "partial response" and "stabilization of the disease". The additional objectives are to evaluate the safety profile of AVE1642 in combination with fulvestrant and of fulvestrant alone, to assess the rate of patients without disease progression at 6 months and the overall progression-free survival time. An evaluation of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics interactions between AVE1642 and fulvestrant will also be performed. The biological activity of treatment will be assessed on tumor biopsies, when possible The potential immunogenicity of AVE1642 will be studied
A published phase 2 study reported that lonafarnib was administered as a single agent via continuous or intermittent oral dosing to 76 women with advanced breast cancer who were previously treated with chemotherapy and/or with endocrine therapy. Objective response rates of approximately 10% were observed. This study will determine the rate of progression-free survival of patients with metastatic breast cancer who receive lonafarnib.
In about half the cases of breast cancer, there is hypoxic (no, or little oxygen) tissue present. Hypoxic cells can be resistant to treatment and may cause increased tumour growth. This study will use 18F-FAZA PET scans before surgery or treatment to assess whether patients have hypoxic tumours. The results will be compared to tissue samples removed during surgery and to the distribution of 18F-FDG.
The aim of this study is to compare the overall tumour response rate per RECIST in postmenopausal women with metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer receiving AS1402 in combination with letrozole compared to letrozole alone
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Hydroxychloroquine may help ixabepilone work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of ixabepilone given together with hydroxychloroquine and to see how well they work in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer.
Hormone receptor positive breast cancer is the most common type of breast cancer, comprising 70-80% of all breast cancers. Endocrine therapy is the main type of initial treatment for patients with your type of breast cancer. Endocrine therapy is treatment that tries to remove, or block certain hormones from binding to the cancer cells and thus slow or stop the growth of cancer. Although most patients with your type of breast cancer respond initially to endocrine therapies, it can lose its effectiveness. New therapies for this type of cancer are needed.
The study objective is to assess the performance of the MammoDetector Pro to correctly mark biopsy-proven breast cancers imaged on the Siemens Mammomat Novation FFDM system compared to conventional film-screen mammography.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn how well lapatinib taken alone, followed by taking lapatinib with paclitaxel, and then taking lapatinib with 5-fluorouracil, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FEC75) works to help to control Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC). The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of metronomic oral vinorelbine taken three times a week plus daily lapatinib without break, as salvage treatment in patients with metastatic breast cancer.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate changes in the expression of targeted biomarkers in invasive breast cancer tissue before and after SNDX-275 administration.
