Breast cancer is a significant issue in Egypt, affecting a large number of women and impacting their psychological well-being. Younger patients and those undergoing adjuvant therapy or radiotherapy are particularly susceptible to psychological distress. Psychological counseling and support groups can help improve patients' quality of life and social functioning. Hope plays a crucial role in the treatment process, as it is associated with positive outcomes and serves as a protective mechanism against stress and disease. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an intervention that can reduce stress and depression in cancer patients. It involves cultivating awareness of the present moment and has positive effects on quality of life. Investigating the impact of MBSR on psychological distress and hope in women undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer is important for providing effective support during treatment. The aim of this study is to: Examine the effect of the Mindfulness-Based Stress reduction intervention on psychological distress and hope among female patients undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer. RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS Female patients undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer who attend Mindfulness-Based Stress reduction intervention sessions exhibit higher levels of hope and lower levels of psychological distress compared to those who receive conventional hospital treatment.
Breast cancer is, in term of incidence, the first cancer among women in France and worldwide. This incidence is increasing, particularly among young women during their professional activity. Those observations raise de question of return to work of those patients, and, broadly, of the post cancer life and former activities recovery. The objective of the study is to identify any factor influencing time from diagnosis to return to work (type of treatment, side effects, residual symptoms, medical staff support, occupational physician monitoring, individual or group supportive therapy, adapted physical activity, alternative therapeutics ..), and the main modalities of return to work (part or full time, professional redeployment). To identify those factors, barriers or supports, would enable the implementation of concrete actions and programs, promoting return to work, and to a free disease life for those patients. The main objective is to identify psycho social factors involved in the time from diagnosis to return to any modality of work, until 24 month after localized breast cancer care, in Grenoble University Hospital (Michalon and Voiron included) Secondary objectives are to identify psycho social factors involved in the time from diagnosis to return to work, part time, full time, and redeployment, respectively, until 24 month after localized breast cancer care, in Grenoble University Hospital (Michalon and Voiron included)
This clinical study is conducted prospectively for 3 months after medical device treatment. It is a comparative clinical study of the leading control group.
This prospective, observational study will evaluate the patient-based sentinel lymph node detection rate when using the Infracyanine® (indocyanine green) dye technique in patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer. The study will describe the demographic, clinical, and tumour characteristics of patients with breast cancer undergoing surgery. The study will describe the characteristics of how the indocyanine green dye technique is used including the dose and volume of dye used, the number and type of injection sites used to give the dye, the equipment used to detect the dye and locate the sentinel lymph node, and whether indocyanine green is used on its own or with other dyes (blue dye and/or 99mTechnetium dye). The study will evaluate the characteristics of sentinel lymph node biopsy procedures performed using indocyanine green dye including the number of biopsies performed, the time taken to detect the sentinel lymph node and perform the biopsy, and how many sentinel lymph nodes are detected using indocyanine green dye, blue dye, and 99mTechnetium dye. The study will also assess the safety of using indocyanine green dye for 6 weeks following surgery.
The purpose of this study is to analyze whether cold dissection can decrease the rate of ischemia necrosis and other complications and then increase the aesthetic outcomes compared to electrocautery.

The purpose of this study to find out whether an intensive approach to treating high blood pressure during breast cancer treatment is safe and more effective than standard blood pressure treatment at lowering blood pressure levels and the risk of cardiotoxicity in patients with cancer. Other studies have shown lowering blood pressure improves the health of patients. However, these studies have not included people with cancer. The PROTECT trial is testing a treatment strategy regarding intensive versus standard SBP goals, and is not testing specific medications.
This is a proof-of-concept, single-center, non-randomized, open-label, phase 1b/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ConvitVax, a simple, low cost (of manufacture), personalized, potentially safe and effective breast cancer vaccine made of three components: autologous tumor cells homogenate obtained from 0.3 g of tumor tissue, 0.0625 mg of bacillus Calmette-Guérin Danish strain 1331 (BCG D1331), and 0.02% of formalin, for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) except for brain metastases, leptomeningeal carcinomatosis, and/or spinal cord compression. The primary aim is to determine the overall safety and tolerability of ConvitVax when administered via an intradermal (id) injection as monotherapy in female patients with MBC who have failed at least one line of therapy. This study will give access to an immunotherapy, to underprivileged women with MBC, particularly in poor developing countries where patients may not have the opportunity to be treated with modern therapies or, in many cases, standard of care treatments. Breast cancer patients at Instituto de Oncología "Dr. Luis Razetti" (Oncological Institute "Dr. Luis Razetti") (IOLR) who meet the eligibility criteria will be consented and asked to have a biopsy of the primary tumor. This fragment will be divided for the preparation of each dose of the vaccine. A total of 40 patients with confirmed MBC will be treated with ConvitVax. The final volume per dose of the vaccine is 0.5 ml, with a total of 4 doses. ConvitVax will be applied via id injection with a 2-week interval between each dose. Patients will be monitored for disease recurrence and survival, for a period of 1 year after initiating the treatment.
Objective: In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of health education provided by two different methods on breast cancer and mammography knowledge self-evaluation status, perceived mammography benefit and barrier levels, mammography self-efficacy levels and mammography screening of women aged 40-69 years. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in a parallel group design as a single-blind randomized controlled trial. The sample consisted of 126 healthy volunteers, 42 in each group, who were registered to Toprakkale Family Health Center between January and July 2023, met the inclusion criteria. In the study, 10-unit Visual Analogue Scale, mammography benefit and obstacle perception sub-dimension of Champion's Health Belief Model Scale and Mammography Self-Efficacy Scale were used for self-assessment of breast cancer and mammography knowledge. In the study, while the control group received standard care, the face-to-face education group was given health education and brochures through home visits, and a reminder interview was made over the phone. Health education and digital brochures were given to the online training group via video call, and a reminder meeting was held once. After a two-month follow-up, One-Way Analysis of Variance and Kruskal Wallis H test were used to compare the data of the three groups, multiple comparisons were analyzed with Tukey's test and Dunn's test. Generalized Linear Models were used for group and time comparisons.
This study was a phase IV, observational, multicenter, single-arm, open-label, post-marketing surveillance study for the assessment of AryoTrust safety in Iranian HER2-positive breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy regimens.
