Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact on survival and quality of life of maintaining hemoglobin in the range of 12 to 14 g/dL using epoetin alfa or placebo in patients starting chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer for the first time.
This randomized phase III trial is studying surgery and axillary lymph node dissection to evaluate if systematic axillary node clearance can be avoided in locoregional treatment for operable breast cancer smaller than 10 mm among menopausal women older than 50
To treat breast tumors in non surgical patients with percutaneous technique (radiofrequency). Prospective evaluation of treatment efficiency and tolerance based on clinical and radiological evaluation
The risk of deep venous thrombosis after radical breast surgery is known. The objective of this study is to explore hypercoagulability after radical breast cancer surgery by studying several factors for haemostasis before, during and after surgery. Ultrasound Doppler examination is realised between 24 and 72 hours post-operatively. Hypercoagulability is defined by a significant increasing level of thrombin-antithrombin, D-dimer and the endogen thrombin potential.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of a socio-aesthetic intervention on body image and quality of life in post-surgical patients with mastectomy or tumorectomy for breast cancer.Two groups of randomized subjects were constituted. Patients of the experimental group received 2 or 3 aesthetic care during the first post-surgical week, whereas those of the control group not. Body image, quality of life and diverse other personality variables were assessed at three different times: surgical operation day before, exit day before of hospitalization and three months afterwards. Our general hypothesis is that subjects who receive aesthetic care report levels significantly higher of corporal satisfaction and of quality of life at the end of the hospitalization and three months later than patients of the control group.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the objective response rate when ZARNESTRA is added to treatment with tamoxifen

This trial will compare grade 2 or greater late skin toxicities of concomitant letrozole-radiotherapy and radiotherapy followed by letrozole as adjuvant therapy for postmenopausal women with receptor (estrogen receptor [ER] and/or progesterone receptor [PgR]) positive tumors. Each drug will be prescribed for 5 years.
