The goal of this clinical trial is to test the efficacy of a nurse-led psychoeducational sexual health intervention for young women breast cancer survivors. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the feasibility of this intervention in an online, private setting? 2. What is the effect of this intervention on reducing menopausal symptoms, improving sexual functioning, and enhancing body image? Participants will participate in a nurse-led psychoeducational intervention for 8 sessions lasting approximately an hour each over the course of 8 - 10 weeks. Each participant will complete survey items at the beginning, end, and six-weeks after the last session. Participants will be compensated up to $150 in gift cards as a thank-you for their time.
This is a single institution phase II randomized study evaluating the potential benefits of a supplement, tart cherry juice at high- versus low-doses, to prevent taxane induced peripheral neuropathy in breast and ovarian cancer patients undergoing paclitaxel chemotherapy. Eligible participants enrolled onto the study will be block randomized in a 1:1 allocation to either the tart cherry juice high-dose group (Arm 1) or the tart cherry juice low-dose group (Arm 2).
the 3-year randomized controlled RCT-SE study aims to investigate Socio-aesthetics well being care on quality of life, pain and anxiety. The primary objective is to show that socio-aesthetics well being care improves quality of life during cancer treatment, compared to self care administration of dermo-cosmetics products The secondary objectives are to show that socio-aesthetics well being care significantly reduced anxiety and pain compared to self care administration of dermo-cosmetics products
This mixed methods study evaluates the effectiveness of an organizational intervention to enhance implementation of strategies to increase breast cancer survivorship symptom and risk management.
Sarcopenia is defined as reduction in muscle mass and function according to the criteria of the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in older people. Initially described for elderly patients, it is also presented as a negative prognostic factor in overall survival in oncology in certain locations (lung, ENT pathways, colon, pancreas) and more controversially for hemopathies. Its screening by measurement of skeletal muscle mass by CT scan and / or PET scan against L3 and by physical functional tests is not routinely integrated despite international recommendations. Sarcopenia is one of the characteristics of patient fragility that can induce more complications, lengthen the average length of hospital stay and reduce overall survival. The PRONOPALL score, a predictor score for survival validated by a previous study, will be correlated with the presence (or absence) of sarcopenia at inclusion for patients with a solid tumor (breast, ovary, prostate cancer , kidney, lungs, pancreas, colorectal). A prospective study on 38 patients with metastatic cancer was carried out at the Victor Hugo clinic in Le Mans between 01/JUN/21 and 31/AUG/21 (SPACE, ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT04714203): 25 patients were analyzable on the CT and PRONOPALL score data with a prevalence of sarcopenia of 60% and median overall survival of 14 months (unpublished data), clinical performance and muscle strength tests were not carried out (as in the publications cited above). A prospective study for the detection of sarcopenia is indicated by extending to blood diseases with the integration of clinical tests included in the initial APA (Adapted physical activity) assessment recommended for diagnosis.
Mindsets are lenses or frames of mind that orient individuals to a particular set of expectations and associations. This study aims to leverage specific and empirically supported mindsets (i.e., 'cancer is manageable' and 'the body is capable') to reduce distress and improve physical health and psychological wellbeing in patients with cancer being treated with curative intent. This intervention will take the form of several brief documentary style film segments which feature both cancer survivors and experts in the fields of Oncology, Psychology, and Psychiatry. Although no mindset-targeted interventions have been studied in cancer patients to date, other psychosocial interventions have demonstrated efficacy in treating emotional distress and improving quality of life in this population. However, compared with these standard interventions, mindset interventions need not be lengthy, complex, or costly to yield major effects. Thus, this project aims to lay the groundwork for future scalable and efficient interventions that can meaningfully reduce distress and improve health and wellbeing in this population.
