Filter by:The genetic polymorphisms of the cytochrome P450 may influence on the metabolism of tamoxifen. The investigators want to - evaluate the frequency or incidence of the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 subfamilies(CYP2D6, CYP3A4/5 and CYP2C19) in breast cancer patients, and - analyze the association between the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 subfamilies and clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients treated by adjuvant tamoxifen therapy.
Study to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous iron supplementation in the prevention of anemia in patients receiving (neo)adjuvant breast cancer regimens.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether platinum-based chemotherapy, when given with radiation therapy prior to surgery, is effective in improving response to treatment in triple negative breast cancer patients.
The overall goal of this project is to determine if high dose vitamin D3 given to premenopausal women at high risk for development of breast cancer, who initially have insufficient levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (<30 ng/ml), will raise 25(OH)D levels above 50 ng/ml. If so, will certain risk biomarkers for development of breast cancer be reliably and favorably modulated?
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of an empirically supported psychosocial treatment, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, in facilitating improved quality of life, benefit-finding, and cortisol rhythm in breast cancer patients in an outpatient clinical oncology setting.
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether a combination of chemotherapy, Trastuzumab and RAD001 will result in no evidence of microscopic disease at the time of surgery in 50% of enrolled patients.
By using stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) delivered with the Cyberknife system®, the current protocol attempts to mimic or improve the excellent local control rates seen in treatment of early stage breast cancer while attempting to increase convenience, limit invasiveness, decrease toxicity, and improve cosmesis compared to other methods of radiation treatment.
The objective of this phase II study is to gain first information on the efficacy (PFS, ORR and OS) and safety of lapatinib plus vinorelbine in patients with HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer pretreated with a combination therapy (chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy) including lapatinib and presenting with tumor progression. Primary objective is to assess the efficacy with respect to the percentage of patients surviving without disease progression as assessed by RECIST criteria. Secondary objectives are to assess the efficacy of the study treatment with respect to the objective response rates as assessed by RECIST criteria version 1.1, the overall survival and to evaluate the safety profile of the combination by recording the adverse events and abnormal laboratory values associated with the study treatments. The main efficacy endpoints will be investigated both for the intent-to-treat (ITT) population and the per-protocol (PP) population.
RATIONALE: Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. AZD6244 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether fulvestrant is more effective with or without AZD6244 in treating patients with advanced breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well fulvestrant works with or without AZD6244 in treating patients with advanced breast cancer that progressed after aromatase inhibitor therapy.
A study to compare the safety and efficacy of an aromatase inhibitor in combination with lapatinib, trastuzumab or both for the treatment of hormone receptor positive, HER2+ metastatic breast cancer (MBC).
