Filter by:Mammography is the most common method for breast imaging, and it provides information for model building and analysis. Radiomics applied to mammography has the potential to revolutionize clinical decision-making by providing valuable insights into risk assessment and disease detection. Despite this, the influence of imaging parameters and clinical and biological factors on radiological texture features remains poorly understood. There is a pressing need to overcome the obstacle of system-inherent effects on mammographic images to facilitate the translation of radiological texture features into routine clinical practice by enabling reliable and robust AI-based or AI-aided decision-making. Furthermore, understanding the relationship between imaging parameters, textural features, and clinical and biological information supports the clinical use of AI. The objective of this study is to evaluate AI methods for clinical practice and to study how it relates to clinical factors and biological features.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of the study medicine PF-07220060 plus letrozole, compared with the effects of taking letrozole alone without PF-07220060 for treatment of breast cancer. This study is seeking for participants who are: - women of age 18 years and older post menopause (either naturally or surgically). - confirmed to have Hormone receptor (HR) positive, Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer. HER2 negative describes cells that have a small amount or none of a protein called HER2 on their surface. In normal cells, HER2 helps control cell growth. Cancer cells that are HER2 negative may grow more slowly and are less likely to recur (come back) or spread to other parts of the body than cancer cells that have a large amount of HER2 on their surface. - not been treated for their cancer before this study. Participants will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to receive the treatment (PF-07220060 plus letrozole) or letrozole alone. Both PF-07220060 and letrozole are taken by mouth. PF-07220060 will be taken twice a day for 14 days. Letrozole will be taken once a day for 14 days. Participants will have a screening period for up to 28 days. If deemed fit, they will receive study treatment for 14 days, and then will have a follow-up visit about 28 days after their last dose. All participants will have at least one biopsy during the study. Biopsy is the removal of cells or tissues for examining. All participants will have a biopsy on Day 14. Additional assessments for safety including blood draws and interviews done by the site staff will be completed during the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate single-fraction metastases-directed SBRT in the broader radiation oncology community and to compare its safety and efficacy profile with the current Standard of Care (SoC) of multiple-fraction SBRT in patients with oligometastatic disease of primary breast, prostate, NSCLC and colorectal cancer having all lesions that will be treated with radical radiotherapy amenable to single-fraction SBRT. The main question/hypothesis this clinical trial aims to answer is: - Single-fraction SBRT has comparable outcomes as those obtained with multiple fraction SBRT, both in terms of safety and efficacy. Patients from the OligoCare cohort will be randomized to receive either single-fraction SBRT or the current SoC of multiple-fraction SBRT.
Close to 20% of cancer patients currently use nicotine products. Nicotine use in breast cancer patients is associated with poorer overall outcomes, including worsened survival and increased surgical complications. Nicotine cessation is rarely addressed in breast cancer patients at the time of diagnosis and may be a missed opportunity to optimize patient outcomes. Patients that use nicotine products are not offered reconstruction at time of mastectomy or oncoplastics at the time of lumpectomy, which can be emotionally distressing in women with breast cancer. Reconstruction could be an additional motivating factor in nicotine cessation success. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of a nicotine cessation program designed by Area Health Education Center (AHEC) in the target population. The study is designed to test the acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a formal nicotine cessation program in women actively using nicotine products with breast cancer recommended for reconstructive or oncoplastics surgery.
1. Measuring serum level of PFAS in breast cancer female patients and healthy participants. 2. Studying the correlation between serum level of PFAS and breast cancer risk through statistical modeling and analysis. 3. Studying the magnitude of environmental exposure through measuring levels of PFAS in air and water sources of corresponding participants.
This study aims to produce new evidence on the efficacy of exercise and diet for cardiometabolic risk reduction in BC survivors. Using a 3-arm RCT with to 6 months of 1) exercise following Health Canada guidelines; 2) the same exercise plus counselling to follow Canada's Dietary Guidelines to improve diet quality; or 3) stretching group, this study will answer the following questions: - What is the impact of exercise on cardiometabolic health and body composition in BC survivors? - What is the effect modification of adding a diet quality intervention to exercise on cardiometabolic health and body composition? - Is there a link between the capacity of skeletal muscle adaptation to exercise (and diet) and insulin resistance in BC survivors? The investigators hypothesize that: 1) exercise will improve cardiometabolic and body composition outcomes 2) improvements in cardiometabolic outcomes will be enhanced by the addition of diet quality, which will be essential or additive for Matsuda index, metabolic syndrome, Framingham CVD risk, thigh myosteatosis, muscle mass, VO2peak, 3) skeletal muscle insulin signalling transduction will be impaired in BC survivors via dampened expression of insulin-responsive proteins (e.g. GLUT4) and co-occur with impaired muscle quality (e.g., higher rates of fat depots, presence of fibrous tissue) negatively impacting insulin signalling.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TQB2102 for injection in HER2 negative recurrent/metastatic breast cancer.
Despite modern surgical and medical treatments, breast cancer can re-occur and lead 20% of patients to death. During the last 20 years, pre-clinical studies have shown that treatment failures may be due to the presence of a sub-type of cancer cells, the cancer stem cells, which are resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. By chance, doxycycline, an old, inexpensive and safe molecule seems to target effectively these cancer stem cells. This study proposes to check for the clinical efficacy of doxycycline to target the cancer stem cells and improve the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in ER+/HER2- breast cancers.
Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer worldwide and the leading cause of cancer death among women in Chile. The Aurora intervention program is designed to improve the quality of life and mitigate the physical consequences of breast cancer in patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. It aims to promote physical activity through a human-centered design product system, incorporating elements of personal motivation, peer learning, and community engagement in alignment with the COM-B model. In a 9-week randomized controlled trial, we will include 30 female patients under 70 years undergoing neoadjuvant therapy for breast cancer in the Metropolitan Region of Chile. Baseline and post-intervention measurements will assess biopsychosocial breast cancer effects through a questionnaire as well as adverse physical effects through functional capacity tests. Biological consequences will be evaluated through lipid profiling, inflammation biomarkers, and tumor progression. In addition, Aurora's patient perception of behavior change will be addressed by analyzing the patient's records in a journal. Moreover, the perceived value of Aurora's design attributes influencing behavior change will be studied through in-depth interviews. Preliminary results describe Aurora's design process and indicate that it is well-received by patients, especially as its logbook is a valuable tool for self-reflection and progress tracking. The study anticipates the confirmation that significantly higher physical activity, improved quality of life, and enhanced functional capacity will be attained in the intervention group. The Aurora intervention program represents a novel approach to support breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, emphasizing physical activity, peer learning, and self-reflection. The integration of the behavior change COM-B model and a human-centered design provides a facilitating tool for tailored interventions for breast cancer patients' needs. Yet, the potential correlation between physical activity, fatty acid metabolism, and chemotherapy response necessitates further exploration. The Aurora intervention program shows promise as a supportive tool for breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Further research is imperative to evaluate the intervention's impact on patient outcomes, refine the design based on user feedback, and explore potential relationships among physical activity, fatty acid metabolism, and chemotherapy response.
The PROSPECTIVE trial aims to find out if using the results of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for early breast cancer can select people to not have radiotherapy and still have a low chance of the cancer coming back after surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: * Will cancer come back in the same breast as the original cancer in patients who have surgery for their breast cancer, but who don't have radiotherapy afterwards because the results of an MRI before surgery showed favourable characteristics for not having radiotherapy.
