Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the rate of early and intermediate toxicity related to the AccuBoost System for delivery of APBI in women with resected, early stage breast cancer.
Background: T cell based adoptive immunotherapy including CTL and TIL may stimulated the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. Objective: Phase I clinical trial to investigate the toxicity and immune response of therapy with autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes as adjuvant treatment for metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma after primary operation, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Methodology: Phase I clinical trial in patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer and other solid cancers. The investigators isolated lymphocytes from fresh tumor tissues, activated and expanded TILs in vitro; and infused the enough number (10e9 to 10e10) of TIL back patients.
Background: - Some bacteria found in the large and small intestines help keep people healthy and aid digestion. They may also affect a person s risk of developing cancer. Researchers want to study the relationship between intestinal bacteria and breast cancer risk factors. They can do this by looking at stool and urine samples from postmenopausal women. Objectives: - To study intestinal bacteria and its relationship to urine-based markers of breast cancer risk in women. Eligibility: - Women between 55 and 69 years of age with a recent mammogram that showed no signs of cancer. Design: - Participants will be screened with a medical history and basic health questionnaire. - At home, participants will complete questionnaires about cancer risk factors and food consumption. - Participants will also collect urine and stool samples. They will send the samples to the designated labs for study. - No treatment will be provided as part of this protocol.
This observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of triple negative or HR+ patients with HER2-metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer treated with Avastin (bevacizumab) as first line therapy for at least 12 months and without disease progression for at least 12 months. Data will be collected retrospectively (from the diagnosis to the inclusion in the study) and for 18 months from study start.
This is a multicenter, non-randomized, prospective cohort study. The purpose of the study is to identify germ line genetic factors that influence the risk of metastatic breast cancer. 1500 patients will be enrolled in this study. Blood samples will be collected after informed consent and inclusion in the study. Patients will be treated and followed according to the standards of their treating center. They will be followed during at least 5 years every 6 months for 3 years then every year.
Evaluation of beauty care in women receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer
Randomized pragmatic trial to evaluate the comparative effectiveness regarding disease specific quality of life of an individualized additional complementary medicine treatment in addition to usual care with usual care only in 280 women with breast cancer
RATIONALE: Physical activity, diet, and counseling may help breast and colorectal cancer survivors to lose weight and improve their quality of life. PURPOSE: This phase II trial studies how well exercise, diet, and counseling work in improving physical activity and weight loss in overweight women who are breast and colorectal cancer survivors.
This study compares two different field set-ups in patients with breast cancer following a breast resection (mastectomy). These two set-ups are as follows: arm a - radiotherapy to the chest-wall only, and arm b - radiotherapy to the chest-wall and the supraclavicular fossa. Patients in both treatment arms will receive radiotherapy with a shortened fractionation schedule. Study hypothesis: irradiation of the chest-wall only is not inferior to irradiation of the chest-wall and supraclavicular fossa in terms of loco-regional control, survival and treatment toxicity.
This research study is designed to look at whether the routine use of shave margins (by taking extra tissue at the time of partial mastectomy surgery) will reduce the chances of having positive surgical margins requiring another surgical procedure, and whether this affects the long-term chances of getting cancer back in your breast.
