Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the biodistribution and dosimetry of single dose of 99mTc-glycopeptide (99mTc-GP, 20-25 mCi) in 3 different doses of GP (5, 10and 20 mg)in patients with breast cancer at pre-chemotherapy.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if using "gene signatures" can be an effective way to decide the best treatment for breast cancer patients. Gene signatures may be able to help researchers predict who will respond to chemotherapy given before surgery.
RATIONALE: Low dose deferasirox may be safe and effective in treating patients who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplant and have iron overload. PURPOSE: This pilot clinical trial studies safety and tolerability of deferasirox in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients who have iron overload. Effect of low dose deferasirox on labile plasma iron is also examined.
This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of RO4929097 when given together with capecitabine in treating patients with refractory solid tumors. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving RO4929097 together with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.
The purpose of this study is to study if a patients follows an exercise program specifically designed for them during the time of their treatment after surgery. Their ability to follow the program and its influence on their weight maintenance and early post-operative lymphedema rates will also be studied. Lymphedema is a condition in which excess fluid collects in tissue and causes swelling of the arm(s).
The proposed study compares the outcomes of a physical activity intervention begun at diagnosis, continuing through active cancer treatment and into six months of survivorship compared to the outcomes of a control group receiving limited information on activity.
Tocotrienol Rich Fraction (TRF) in combination with Tamoxifen will improve breast cancer specific survival and recurrence free survival, in women with early breast cancer and estrogen receptor positive tumors.
This single arm, open label study will assess the safety profile of Avastin (bevacizumab) in combination with paclitaxel as first-line treatment in patients with locally recurrent or metastatic Her2-negative breast cancer. Patients will receive Avastin, either 10 mg/kg intravenously (iv) every 2 weeks or 15 mg/kg iv every 3 weeks. Correspondingly, paclitaxel will be administered at a dose of 90 mg/m2 o days 1, 8 and 15 of every 28-day cycle or 175 mg/m2 on day 1 of every 21-day cycle. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
The main purpose of this study is to see whether CDX-011 is effective in treating patients who have advanced breast cancer that makes a protein called glycoprotein NMB (GPNMB), and who have already received (or were not candidates for) all available approved therapies for their breast cancer. This study will also further characterize the safety of CDX-011 treatment in this patient population.
RATIONALE: DNA analysis of tumor tissue may help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research study is studying biomarkers in tissue samples from patients with breast cancer treated with bevacizumab.
