Filter by:It is considered that whether or not the accompanying invasive cancer classified through MRI images of breast cancer patients identified as Ductal Carcinoma in situ (DCIS) through preoperative tissue biopsy is significantly consistent with the postoperative stage. Therefore, this study intend to evaluate the effectiveness as a diagnostic tool that can help determine the axillary lymph node surgery by predicting the possibility of post-operative up-staging using magnetic resonance imagings of breast cancer patients who have been identified as ductal carcinoma in situ and are scheduled for surgery.
This trial studies the effect of an electronic health (eHealth) support program called PACK Health on patient reported health outcomes in patients with breast cancer. PACK Health monitors breast cancer patients' reported side effects and experience of care when receiving chemotherapy. Participating in the PACK Health coaching program may improve quality of life, decrease hospital admissions and improve overall health.
The present investigation aims to evaluate the efficacy of an innovative protocol of controlled ovarian stimulation for breast cancer patients, who are candidates for fertility preservation. Currently, vitrification of oocytes and/or embryos after controlled ovarian stimulation is the most established method for female fertility preservation. However, this stimulation induces an increase in serum estrogen levels, which is theoretically problematic in case of hormone-sensitive tumors such as breast cancer. The majority of oncology teams accept, in very specific situations (particularly when the tumor has been surgically removed), this ovarian stimulation, because the expected benefits of fertility preservation far outweigh the risks. However, everyone agrees that it would be more comfortable to be able to offer vitrification of oocytes and/or embryos using ovarian stimulation without increasing estrogen levels. In this research, investigators will evaluate the efficacy of degarelix (Firmagon®), currently indicated for the treatment of prostate cancer, as an innovative ovarian stimulation procedure. Administered at the beginning of ovarian stimulation, they believe it should maintain serum estradiol levels at physiological values at the end of stimulation.
Decision making about whether to have breast reconstruction after mastectomy can be difficult, and previous studies have found that many women are not well informed about their options. Patient decision aids can improve decision quality for a variety of health conditions. This pilot randomized study seeks to determine how a patient decision aid about breast reconstruction affects the quality of decisions about reconstruction including patient knowledge, concordance between preferences and treatment, and decisional regret.
This is a study to investigate the potential clinical benefit of G1T48 as an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) alone and in combination with palbociclib, a cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK 4/6) inhibitor, in patients with estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. The study is an open-label design, consisting of 3 parts: dose-finding portion including food effect (Part 1), G1T48 monotherapy expansion portion (Part 2), and G1T48 in combination with palbociclib expansion portion (Part 3). All parts include 3 study phases: Screening Phase, Treatment Phase, and Survival Follow-up Phase. The Treatment Phase begins on the day of first dose with study treatment and completes at the Post-Treatment Visit. Approximately, 184 patients may be enrolled in the study.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of bexarotene in preventing breast cancer in patients at high risk for breast cancer. Bexarotene belongs to a class of drugs that are called rexinoids, and it may reduce the incidence of breast tumors.
Phase 2, open-label study of AVB-620 in women with primary, nonrecurrent and nonmetastatic breast cancer undergoing surgery.
This randomized phase III trial studies how well oxybutynin chloride works in managing hot flashes in patients who are not candidates for, or not interested in hormone replacement therapy. Previous studies have shown that oxybutynin is effective in managing hot flashes, however doses used in prior studies have resulted in side effects. This trial is evaluating lower doses of oxybutynin with the goal of determining if they are efficacious with less side effects. ADAM-VTE
Pharmacologic inhibition of RANKL attenuates the development of mammary carcinoma and inhibits metastatic progression in multiple mouse models. In a retrospective analysis it could be demonstrated that elevated expression of RANK was found in 14.5% of patients overall, with a significant predominance in patients with hormone-receptor-negative disease. Expression of RANK was associated with a higher pathological complete response rate but with a shorter disease-free and overall survival. The ABCSG-18 study showed that adjuvant denosumab reduces clinical fractures, improves bone health, and can be administered without added toxicity. It appears therefore reasonable to test denosumab, a clinically available antibody against RANKL in patients with hormone-receptor-negative primary breast cancer as an adjunct to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for its ability to increase pCR rate and improve outcome in relation to the expression of RANK.
This phase II trial studies how well nelipepimut-S plus GM-CSF vaccine therapy or sargramostim works in treating patients with breast cancer. Vaccines made from peptide or antigen and/or a person's white blood cells mixed with tumor proteins may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express breast cancer antigens. It is not yet known whether nelipepimut-S plus GM-CSF vaccine or sargramostim is more effective in treating patients with breast cancer.
