Filter by:The lack of knowledge of women on breast cancer and health literacy poses a major obstacle to people's breast cancer screening behaviors and beliefs. In order to increase social sensitivity and awareness on this issue; In particular, it is important to research, examine and examine how the municipalities and their employees, who are representatives of the society, evaluate breast cancer screening studies. The aim of our project is to evaluate the effect of breast cancer screening training given to women working in the municipality on health literacy, breast cancer screening belief and behavior. This study will be conducted in a randomized-controlled experimental design with women (n=120) working in a municipality in Istanbul Province between November 2022 and November 2023. Data will be obtained face-to-face using the Participant Information Form, the Health Literacy Scale and the Breast Cancer Screening Beliefs Scale. The women in the experimental group (n=60) will be given 16 hours of breast cancer screening training, two days a week, two hours a day (60 min+60 min) for four weeks, by the researchers. No application will be made to the control group (n=60). Follow-up evaluations of the research will be completed in the following six months. The Health Literacy Scale and Breast Cancer Screening Beliefs Scale will be re-administered to all women in the experimental and control groups at the first follow-up after three months and at the second follow-up after 6 months. The data will be analyzed with statistical methods and the effectiveness of the training will be evaluated. When the project is concluded; The results will be presented as an article in a national or international journal, or as an oral presentation at a national or international congress. It will be ensured that breast cancer screening training given to women working in the municipality will increase their level of health literacy, have a positive effect on breast cancer screening belief and behavior, and increase their awareness and knowledge level on this subject. In the long term, widespread effects such as reducing the costs women spend on breast cancer, reducing mortality and morbidity rates, raising a conscious society, training undergraduate students involved in the project, and helping them learn by experiencing the research conducted at the national level are foreseen.
This is a prospective observational multicentric study. The aim is to evaluate the incidence of endometrial cancer and endometrial atypical hyperplasia in patients with previous breast cancer, treated with different adjuvant therapies. The second aim is to identify ultrasonographic soft markers related with endometrial cancer or atipycal hyperplasia.
The investigators propose to deliver a pilot randomized controlled trial to 40 women newly diagnosed with breast cancer and scheduled to undergo chemotherapy. The current objectives are: 1) to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of the prehabilitation physical activity (PA) intervention delivered by a physical therapist and 2) assess the intervention's feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness. The long-term goal is to scale this intervention for implementation into the standard of cancer care to prevent, mitigate, and treat cancer-related cognitive decline (CRCD).
ODELIA is a project that aims to improve breast cancer detection in magnetic resonance imaging by utilizing artificial intelligence and swarm learning (MRI). The project will create an open-source swarm learning software framework that will be used to train AI models for breast cancer detection. These models' performance will be compared to that of conventional AI models, and the results will be used to assess the effectiveness of swarm learning in improving the accuracy and robustness of AI models. The project will use retrospective, anonymized breast MRI datasets with manual ground truth labels for cancer presence. The study is not associated with any patient treatment or intervention. The project's goal is to provide evidence of the clinical benefits of swarm learning in the context of breast cancer screening, such as accelerated development, improved performance, and robust generalizability.
The RIBBS study is a single-arm single-center study that aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a risk-based breast screening model using digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) as the baseline test, quantitative individual breast density to guide supplemental ultrasound (US) imaging for dense breasts, and individual risk (calculated taking into account breast density) to guide the screening interval (annual or biennial). Invited 45-year-old women are differentiated into five different screening protocols (based on breast density and risk), and screened according to a personalized model until they turn 50 and return to routine screening. The only primary endpoint in this study is the cumulative incidence of advanced breast cancers (stage II and above). This endpoint will be evaluated at the end of the five-year intervention period and at 10 years. The results of the personalized screening model will be compared with those obtained from an observational cohort from a neighboring region in which a "one-size-fits-all" approach involving annual mammography for women aged 45-49 years is used. The comparison will be conducted with the hypothesis of superiority of the personalized screening model.
This is a phase 1, multicenter, open-label, first-in-human study of YL202 conducted in the United States and China. The study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of YL202 in patients with locally advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated NSCLC or hormone receptor (HR)-positive and HER2-negative BC, which have been heavily treated by standard treatment.
A prospective study was used to collect patients considering breast cancer admitted to our general surgery department from 2019-6 to 2023-8, to identify the case group (breast cancer) and the control group (non-breast cancer), to compare the differences in CTC in peripheral blood between the two groups, and to draw conclusions after statistical analysis.
This is a multicenter, Phase 1b-2 study of elacestrant in combination with onapristone in patients with advanced/metastatic ER+/PgR+/HER2- breast cancer.
For breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant radiotherapy, radiation dermatitis (RD) is a common occurrence that can negatively impact patients' quality of life (QOL). RD often presents as erythema, pruritus, and/or edema and in more severe cases, skin breakage can occur, resulting in moist desquamation. StrataXRT is a silicone-based film-forming topical gel. Recent studies have shown the benefits of StrataXRT, but with mixed results. A recent randomized controlled trial published in 2022 found that in breast cancer patients (n=100), the use of StrataXRT significantly reduced the mean size of the radiation-induced dermatitis area (p=0.002) when compared to the control group. Additionally, another study (n=49) demonstrated significant differences in the Erythema Index (EI) (p=0.001) and Melanin Index (MI) (p=0.005) between StrataXRT compared to the use of Xderm, a moisturizer cream. To validate the finding of the previous studies a pilot study testing the efficacy of StrataXRT has been proposed. In this study, 50 patients will use Strata XRT on their breast/chest wall during radiation treatment. Their skin will be assessed throughout and post-treatment. Investigators hypothesize the severity of skin reactions will be less for patients using Strata XRT when compared to historical data from our centre.
The aim of this trial is to explore the real-world effectiveness and poteintial predictors in Chinese metastatic breast cancer patients.
