Filter by:The purposes of this multicenter retrospective cohort study are to determine the residual nodal burden in patients with isolated tumor cells detected in the SLN or the clipped node after NAC and to determine oncologic outcomes in this group of patients after ALND or nodal RT or observation.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women globally, with 2.3 million new cases diagnosed in 2020. Hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer is the most prevalent subtype, comprising 69% of all breast cancers in the USA. Within the tumor immune microenvironment, a higher intensity of myeloid cell infiltration and low levels of lymphocyte infiltration have been associated with worse outcomes. Markers in peripheral blood have emerged as predictive biomarkers that can be easily obtained non-invasively and at low cost. Experiments have confirmed the relative components of these tests (such as the immune cells) directly or indirectly participated in tumour occurrence, development, and immune escape, underscoring the potential use of laboratory tests as tumour biomarkers
Determining the prognosis of breast cancer relies significantly on axillary staging by sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNb). The SLNb is generally performed using radioisotopes, blue dyes, or both to improve the false negative rate. However, a gamma probe with radioisotopes involves ionizing radiation, and blue dye detection relies on visual inspection by an operator. To overcome these limitations, the photoacoustic finder (PAF) was developed as a highly sensitive, non-radioactive detector that uses only blue dye and a photoacoustic signal to detect SLNs. To evaluate the PAF, its performance was compared with the standard SLN detection method for breast cancer patients.
The aim of this quasi-experimental study is to determine the effect of the "Breast Cancer Prevention Journey Program" on health beliefs about breast cancer in women over 40 years of age who have never had a mammogram before. The research aims to answer the following basic questions: -Do women who participated in the "Breast Cancer Prevention Journey Program" have different health beliefs about breast cancer than women who did not participate in the program? The researchers will compare the program with routine care to see if the "Breast Cancer Prevention Journey Program" works. The study will be conducted in a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test post-test control group. Participants in the experimental group will first participate in the "The fight against breast cancer" training structured according to the Health Belief Model. One week after the training, the participants in the experimental group will be taken to mammography screening with free shuttles. Participants in the control group will not receive any additional intervention. This group will only receive routine intervention within the scope of the breast cancer screening program conducted by the Ministry of Health.
In some cases of hormone receptor positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative early breast cancer the benefit of adding adjuvant chemotherapy to hormonal treatment, estimated on the basis of the classical clinico-pathological parameters, is unclear. In these cases the application of a genomic test could be useful in guiding the therapeutic choice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of lesion detection and diagnosis-aiding software (CadAI-B for Breast) during ultrasound (US) examination
To investigate the treatment pattern and efficacy of patients with negative primary ER lesion but positive ER expression in MBC using a novel convenient way of 18F-fluoroestradiol positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FES PET/CT).
Perioperative SARS-CoV-2 infection significantly increases the risk of postoperative complications and mortality, while also exerting long-lasting impacts on multiple organs and systems. Due to the curtailment or cessation of non-emergency surgeries during the initial phase of the pandemic, there is a lack of evidence regarding the optimal timing and medium- to long-term postoperative outcomes of surgical intervention in breast cancer patients with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly after vaccination. We aim to investigate whether prior SARS-CoV-2 infection increases the risk of postoperative adverse outcomes in breast cancer patients and determine the optimal timing for surgical intervention during the pandemic, as well as to longitudinally assess the evolution of postoperative adverse outcomes within one year after COVID-19 and identify associated risk factors.
The study's objective is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of the contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) , considering as reference the classification obtained with Vacuum Assisted Breast Biopsy (VABB).
This is a non-interventional observational study conducted in Germany to evaluate the real-world effectiveness, tolerability, safety, and quality of life in patients with locally advanced/metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer treated with one of the following 1st line treatments: Ribociclib + AI/FUL, or endocrine monotherapy, or chemotherapy
