Filter by:This Phase III trial compares the recurrence-free interval (RFI) among patients with early-stage, low risk HER2+ breast cancer who undergo breast conserving surgery and receive HER2-directed therapy, and are randomized to not receive adjuvant breast radiotherapy versus those who are randomized to receive adjuvant radiotherapy per the standard of care.
Women living with and beyond breast cancer are at a heightened risk for experiencing adverse mental health outcomes and declines in cognitive function following chemotherapy treatment. Women living with and beyond breast cancer have reported increased levels of anxiety and depression during the COVID-19 pandemic which may have significantly impacted their quality of life (QoL). Physical activity (PA) may be used to manage mental health and improve cognitive function in women living with and beyond breast cancer. Research is needed to assess the feasibility of a supervised, remotely delivered, combined (i.e., aerobic + resistance) exercise program to improve cognitive function and manage adverse mental health in women living with and beyond breast cancer. This study will pilot an 8-week, remotely delivered, combined (i.e., aerobic + resistance) exercise and behavioural counselling intervention on cognitive function and mental health outcomes (i.e.,anxiety, depression, self-efficacy and self esteem) in women living with breast cancer who received chemotherapy treatment within 12-48 months.
Assess feasibility of home exercise in reducing fatigue in subjects with breast cancer receiving curative intent chemotherapy. Subjects are randomized to control (no exercise) or intervention group (exercise). The PRO-CTCAE tool and FACIT Fatigue Scale are used to collect patient reported outcomes. Subjects submit data via mobile phone, tablet or computer. Assessments are weekly during chemotherapy (10-20 wks), at end of chemotherapy and 1, 3 and 6 months after chemotherapy.
ADAPT-HER2-IV will address question of optimal neoadjuvant therapy in patients with less advanced -HER2+ EBC. ADAPT-HER2-IV is planned as a superiority trial to demonstrate higher pCR rates in both clinically relevant subgroups of low-intermediate risk HER2+ EBC. Moreover, it aims to demonstrate excellent survival in patients treated by T-DXd (with the use of standard chemotherapy at investigator´s decision restricted only to patients with substantial residual tumour burden after T-DXd-treatment).
This early phase I studies how well a new 3D ultrasound (3D-US) imaging technology works in evaluating axillary lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer. Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to generate images of the body.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate and validate multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) modalities for assessment of breast cancer response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in a multi-site and multi-MRI scanner platform setting. This study is conducted at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), University of Washington (UW), and University of Iowa (UI) using Siemens, Philips, and General Electric MRI scanners, respectively. MRI is a type of scan that uses a very strong magnet and no radiation to take very detailed pictures of parts of the body. MRI is often used as standard of care to take pictures of breast tumor(s) before and after chemotherapy treatment in order to measure the tumor size changes in response to treatment, and in order to plan for surgery. MRI is used because the images it takes are very clear and the borders of the tumor can be measured very accurately. However the tumor size alone is often not a good early indicator of whether or not the tumor responds to treatment. Tumor size change usually happens late during the period of treatment, and tumor size measured with MRI after treatment can overestimate or underestimate the residual cancer. This makes it difficult to do the right surgical planning. In addition to measuring tumor size, the MRI scans in this research study will also measure changes in tumor blood vessels and the number of cancer cells per unit of tumor volume. The purpose of this study is to see whether MRI measurements of these functional tumor properties provide better early prediction and evaluation of breast cancer response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy than tumor size measurement. This is an observational study because the MRI procedures are not expected to have an effect on health outcomes. Eligible participants on this study are receiving standard of care neoadjuvant treatment for their cancer.
Breast cancer represents the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women. It represents the 5th leading cause of cancer mortality all over the world. In Egypt, breast cancer represents the 2nd most diagnosed cancer among all population. But among Egyptian females it represents the 1st diagnosed cancer representing 32.4%. The main cause of death in breast cancer patients is tumor metastasis. Although only 5-10% of recently diagnosed breast cancer cases show metastasis to distant sites, but still there is a high risk for metastasis in patients with localized primary tumor following successful surgical management. Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is a cell adhesion molecule. It modifies cadherin mediated cell adhesion and it induces epithelial cell migration and proliferation. Some authors elucidate that EpCAM is involved in metastasis. P53 is a known tumor suppressor gene involved in the control of cell cycle, DNA repair and apoptosis. It's one of the most mutated genes in cancer including breast cancer. Mutant p53 has a big role in tumor progression.
This study gathers information and samples for further analysis as part of the BEAUTY study. The purpose of the BEAUTY study was to better understand the reasons why or why not breast cancers respond to standard chemotherapy. Collecting samples of blood and tissue and health and treatment information from patients on the BEAUTY study may help doctors identify changes that make cancer better respond to standard chemotherapy and develop better therapies for the treatment of cancer.
Evaluation patients with palpable lymph node with breast cancer by sentinel lymph node biopsy and how to affect on the management of breast cancer.
This study is designed to see if we can lower the chance of side effects from radiation in patients with breast, kidney, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma that has spread to the brain and who are also being treated with immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. This study will compare the usual care treatment of single fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SSRS) given on one day versus fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS), which is a lower dose of radiation given over a few days to determine if FSRS is better or worse at reducing side effects than usual care treatment.
