Filter by:It is estimated that around 20% of breast cancers (BC) in the UK are preventable through adherence to appropriate health behaviours, i.e., healthy diet, physical activity, limited alcohol, not smoking, and that women at increased risk of BC could benefit from greater decreases in risk than the general population via health behaviour changes. Young women (age <35 years) who are at increased risk of developing BC currently receive little or no information regarding health behaviours and BC risk, or support for behaviour change. This feasibility study aims to explore whether a novel app is acceptable to women at increased risk and could potentially engage them with improved health behaviours which could reduce their future risk of BC.
Breast cancer, a leading cause of mortality among females, has been the center of research for many decades. Work is in progress to further advance the research worldwide and in our region. This study is conducted to look into regional ethical predilection, clinical presentation/stage, pathological subtypes & risk factors of BC among patients of Karachi, with the aim of proposing a ground to policy making regarding protocol setting for screening and management of BC for our region.
A named patient program (NPP) was initiated to allow patients with an unmet medical need to access trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) treatment. To gain early insights on the use of T-DXd outside of a trial setting, patients with advanced/metastatic HER2+ breast cancer receiving treatment (or previously treated) with T-DXd through the NPP will be invited to participate.
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer diagnosed in women. A good rehabilitation program is essential for a good recovery after breast cancer, both physically and mentally. The aim of this study is to determine if there is an added value of a third supervised training session within a standard 12-week rehabilitation program to improve physical and mental functioning after breast cancer. The investigators also want to determine the added value of hydrotherapy as a third training session within a 12-week rehabilitation program compared to a third training session with ground exercises to improve physical and mental functioning after breast cancer.
The objective is to retrospectively describe and assess clinical and demographical characteristics, treatment patterns in a real-world (RW) setting of patients with HR+/HER2- (hormone receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative) locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer receiving palbociclib in combination treatment
Introduction: Breast cancer represents the most common type of malignant neoplasm worldwide. Advances in diagnosis and treatment have increased the life expectancy of patients. However, the sequelae associated with treatment and disease in survivors such as chronic pain, kinesiophobia and loss of physical function represent a long-term health problem. Physical therapy is a frequently used strategy for the treatment of sequelae in the acute stage of the disease, but there is a need to evaluate its effectiveness in cancer survivors with chronic sequelae. Therapeutic exercise and pain neuroscience education have been shown to be effective in the management of populations with chronic pain and loss of function; however, more evidence is needed in specific populations of cancer survivors. Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of a physical therapy program based on pain neuroscience education and therapeutic exercise for the treatment of chronic pain, kinesiophobia and loss of physical function in breast cancer survivors. Methodology. Quasi-experimental study. The sample will consist of 40 female breast cancer survivors. The intervention will last 9 weeks, with 3 sessions of pain neuroscience education and 24 sessions of therapeutic exercise, 3 times per week (16 face-to-face sessions and 8 sessions at home). The intervention will be carried out in small groups of 8 to 12 people. The frequency and intensity of pain, the level of kinesiophobia and physical functionality and the range of of motion of the shoulder will be evaluated in 4 assessments, before the intervention (T0), 3rd (T1), 6th (T2) and 9th (T3) week of the intervention. Different validated measurement instruments will be used in this population such as self-report scales, questionnaires and the use of a goniometer.
This project is a follow-on study of the BEAUTIFY-2 study (NCT04957186). The "BEAUTIFY" (BrEast cAncer qUaliTy of lIfe aFter surgerY) program was built by a committee of experts on the basis of reflections carried out within 2 focus groups. An application was developed to track patient reported outcome measures. The study investigators now wish to evaluate the feasibility and impact on pain and quality of life of the "BEAUTIFY" care pathway on a larger cohort. The study hypothesis is that multidisciplinary care organization will improve the management and the quality of life post-breast cancer surgery.
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled trial for evaluating the efficacy of addition of transversus thoracic muscle plane block to pectoral nerves block versus pectoral nerves block for quality of recovery scores in breast cancer surgery.
Peripheral neuropathy from paclitaxel is a cause for concern. This situation also affects the patient, family and healthcare professionals. All health personnel are responsible for its care. With this study, it will be possible to create evidence for nursing practices and increase the quality of life by relieving symptoms.
The aim is to investigate potential barriers to informed decision making in a breast cancer screening context. This is a necessary step prior to developing and investigating improved information or decision aids in a Danish breast cancer screening context.
