Filter by:1. Although after treatment for breast cancer such as chemotherapy or hormonal therapy, urogenital atrophy is common, the patients are seldomly treated for several reasons. Management of this problem is important for improving quality of life. 2. "Clino-san" is a kind of vaginal lubricant with pH 5 which is similar pH of premenopausal vaginal discharge. After randomization of patients, they are treated with Clino-san or placebo 3 times/week for 12 weeks. 3. We check the vaginal symptoms, vag dryness severity score, and ultrasonography at baseline, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of treatment.
The purpose of this pilot clinical study is to test a methodology for using high-resolution Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging to guide vacuum-assisted core biopsy of breast abnormalities identified on PET. In order to implement the PET guidance, the study uses the Stereo Navigator accessory to the high-resolution organ-specific PET scanner (PEM Flex™ PET Scanner, Naviscan PET Systems, Inc., San Diego, CA). The Stereo Navigator is an investigational device intended for guiding biopsy needles toward lesions in breasts identified by a physician on a high resolution PET image. The study will evaluate the clinical utility of the Stereo Navigator in guiding the vacuum-assisted core biopsy of breast abnormalities, following the example of prior studies of breast biopsy guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how a new study agent works inside the body. The study agent is a protein called 64Cu-trastuzumab. This is a radioactive tracer that was developed at MSKCC to target HER2 protein on cancer cells. A radioactive tracer is a small amount of radioactive dye that follows something else that is not radioactive In this study the study agent, 64Cu-trastuzumab, is the tracer and what's being followed is trastuzumab (Herceptin™). By giving you this tracer after you have treatment with trastuzumab (Herceptin™), we will be able to use PET scans to show us which parts of your body and tumor sites the Herceptin goes to. This will help us to understand better how Herceptin works in the body to fight cancer.
The purpose of this multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group study is to compare efficacy and safety between anastrozole and tamoxifen in pre- and post-operative administration under goserelin acetate treatment for premenopausal breast cancer patients
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Caelyx) in elderly patients who are to receive first-line chemotherapy for metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer, not amenable to surgery.
This study was designed to determine the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant docetaxel and epirubicin (DE) with or without human recombinant endostatin (endostar) for breast cancer patients. The hypothesis of this protocol is that a combined angiogenesis inhibiting therapy to chemotherapy could further enhance the cytotoxic activity in breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Cisplatin when given with radiation therapy prior to surgery is effective in improving response to treatment in breast cancer patients. Tumor, blood and bone marrow samples will be collected in this study and will also help researchers determine if cisplatin is able to change tumor DNA so it cannot multiply itself and create more tumor cells, and cause the tumor cells to die.
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as multifunctional magnetic resonance imaging, may help doctors learn the extent of disease and plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well multifunctional magnetic resonance imaging works in predicting breast lesions in women undergoing mastectomy for breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving intraoperative radiation therapy after lumpectomy followed by external-beam radiation therapy may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well radiation therapy works in treating women undergoing lumpectomy for stage I or stage IIA breast cancer.
This phase II trial is studying how well F-18 16 alpha-fluoroestradiol (FES) imaging works in predicting response to first-line hormone therapy in women with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as FES imaging, may help predict how well patients will respond to hormone therapy and may help plan the best treatment.
