NCT ID: NCT02792101 Not yet recruiting - Breast Neoplasms Clinical Trials

RISAS Procedure in Node Positive Breast Cancer Following NAC

Start date: August 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chemotherapy in clinically node positive breast cancer patients is increasingly administrated in a neoadjuvant setting. The standard treatment regimen in these cases is then: neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by breast surgery and an axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). NAC results in axillary pathologic complete response (pCR) in 1 out of 3 patients, indicating a complete absence of axillary metastases after completion of NAC. In such events, ALND can be regarded as overtreatment that creates unnecessary morbidity. Less invasive axillary surgery which can accurately assess axillary pCR is therefore preferred over standard ALND in all patients. In case of detection of remaining axillary lymph node metastases by this less invasive axillary surgical procedure, completion axillary treatment is standard of care. The novel RISAS procedure is introduced as a possible less invasive axillary staging procedure. RISAS procedure contains Radioactive Iodine Seed localisation in the Axilla in axillary node positive breast cancer combined with a Sentinel node procedure. The iodine seed in the axillary lymph node metastasis will be placed prior to start of NAC.

Neoadjuvant ECS Versus ECF in Local Advanced Breast Cancer

Start date: June 2013
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

S-1 is a newly developed novel oral dihydrouracil dehydrogenase inhibiting fluoro-pyrimidine drug consisting of i M tegafur (FT), 0.4 M 5-chloro-2, 4-dihydroxypyrimidine (gimeracil), and 1 M potassium oxonate (oteracil), with efficient antitumor activity and low gastrointestinal toxicity. Several studies have proved the safety and efficacy of single agent S-1 in metastatic breast cancer. This study is designed to further investigate and compare the efficacy and safety of Epirubicin-cyclophosphamide-S-1(ECS) vs. Epirubicin-cyclophosphamide-5-fluorouracil (ECF) as neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with local advanced breast cancer.
