Filter by:Cryotherapy is a cold ablation technique used in many tumor locations. The destruction of tissues by cryoablation preserves proteins and in particular anti-tumor antigens, which could induce the stimulation of an immune response. Compared to other interventional radiology techniques, cryotherapy induces a higher immunogenic response. Studies describe complex responses with elevated levels of activating NK cells, circulating and anti-tumor T cells, and pro-inflammatory and NF-KB dependent cytokines. In breast cancer, whether or not an immune response is triggered depends on the type of cryoablation used. Indeed, high intensity cryoablation (rapid freezing in one cycle of the entire tumor volume) seems to induce a tumor-specific immunodestructive response, whereas low frequency cryoablation (several small repetitive cycles until a sufficient volume of ice is obtained) does not induce an immunogenic response and can even induce an immunoregulation with immunotolerance of the tumor cells The University Hospital of Nîmes has recently acquired a new liquid nitrogen cryotherapy technique, more powerful than the one classically performed with Argon. This technique is used for palliative and analgesic purposes in patients with metastatic breast cancer presenting painful subcutaneous metastases. The aim of this study is to evaluate in these patients the changes in the tumor microenvironment and the immune response potentially induced by this very high intensity cryotherapy. The study investigators hypothesize that locoregional treatment with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy of subcutaneous breast cancer metastases will allow a systemic response through the induction of an immune response. A better understanding of the type of immune response induced will allow the development of combined therapeutic strategies with curative and not only palliative and analgesic aims.
This is a prospective study comparing partial mastectomy performed with routine cavity shave margins and Savi Scout® localization to partial mastectomy performed with selective margins and Savi Scout® localization. The primary objective is to determine the difference in positive margin rate between the two methods. The secondary objectives are to determine the differences in the rate of re-excision, volume of tissue extracted and Breast-Q® score between the two methods. It is hypothesized that the Savi Scout® will allow for decreased volume of tissue excised when compared to routine cavity shave margins without any difference in positive margin rate or rate of re-excision.
This is a phaseⅠb/Ⅱ, open-label, two-arm parallel study evaluating the efficacy and safety of different targeted antibody-drug conjugates for HER2 ultra-low or no expression advanced breast cancer
In this phase 2 single-arm clinical trial, 30 patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer after progression on trastuzumab are enrolled and receive treatment of Inetetamab plus Pyrotinib plus Oral Vinorelbine. The study aimed to access the efficacy and safety of Inetetamab combined with Pyrotinib and Oral Vinorelbine in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients after progression on trastuzumab.
This study will look at whether females who have previously had breast surgery and radiation and are undergoing repeat breast surgery require any post operative interventions. The reason the investigators are conducting this study is because females who have undergone breast radiation are at higher risk of wound complications following breast surgery. The investigators will randomize recruited female participants into three arms, one which is post operative antibiotics for one week, one which is a wound VAC, and one which is no intervention. The investigators goal is to identify whether these patients will require any postoperative interventions.
This study is a single arm, phase II pilot design. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intralesional immunotherapy (e.g. IL-2) in early stage TNBC. The overall objective of the research study is to advance our knowledge of novel immunotherapies and routes of administration for the treatment of TNBC HYPOTHESES: Neoadjuvant treatment of TNBC with intralesional IL-2 is safe and well tolerated and can produce a pathological response. Aim 1: Examine the safety and possible efficacy of a novel neoadjuvant intralesional intervention (IL-2) for patients with early-stage TNBC.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of assigning breast cancer survivors currently receiving chemotherapy to exercise at a specific time of day, e.g., morning or afternoon/evening, for a 4-week exercise intervention. Information gathered from this study will help inform a future, larger trial. Study Aims: 1. Assess the feasibility of engaging in exercise at an assigned time-of-day (e.g., morning or afternoon/evening) in breast cancer survivors on chemotherapy. Hypothesis: Assigning windows of time within the day to complete exercise (e.g. 5-10am exercise start time vs. 3-8pm exercise start time) will be feasible among this patient population. 1a. Determine the acceptability engaging in exercise at an assigned time-of-day (e.g., morning or afternoon/evening) in breast cancer survivors on chemotherapy. Hypothesis: Engaging in exercise at an assigned time-of-day will be acceptable in this patient population. 2. To generate evidence on the magnitude of the effect sizes and outcome variability of physical function and human performance variables. Tests to be conducted at baseline and end of study to measure physical function and human performance variables include: Timed up and go test, 30-second chair stand, handgrip strength, cardiorespiratory fitness.
This is an online survey experiment with data collection over 2 time points two weeks apart. This is Aim 2 of a three-aim R01 project; overall project goal is to better understand how messages from different sources interact to affect older women's breast cancer screening decisions. In this current project, the investigators propose to test the effect of combined exposure to a clinician message + a message from another source (i.e. family/friend or media) on older women's breast cancer screening beliefs, attitudes, and intentions.
The present study evaluates the effect of yoga therapy on scarring contractures and shoulder joint motion and range in women diagnosed with breast cancer. A single-blinded prospective, randomized controlled trial will be used.
This is multicentric, spontaneous, observational, retrospective and prospective study.
