Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well hypofractionated partial breast irradiation works in treating patients with early stage breast cancer. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Treating only the part of the breast where the cancer started may lead to fewer side effects than standard treatment.
This study looks at the risks and benefits of active monitoring (AM) compared to surgery in the setting of a pragmatic prospective randomized trial for low risk DCIS. Our overarching hypothesis is that management of low-risk Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) using an AM approach does not yield inferior cancer or quality of life outcomes compared to surgery.
This multi-center, open-label, non-randomized controlled intervention study aims to investigate the treatment efficacy, side-effects and quality of life associated with imiquimod treatment of high-grade CIN lesions, as an alternative to surgical treatment by Large Loop Excision of the Transformation Zone (LLETZ). Non-surgical treatment may prevent side-effects associated with surgical treatment, such as premature birth in subsequent pregnancies. The study hypothesis is that approximately 75% of patients with high-grade CIN will be adequately treated with imiquimod. 120 women with a histological diagnosis of CIN2 or CIN3 will be included and allocated to one of two treatment arms according to their preference: 1. Imiquimod treatment arm(60 patients). Patients in this group are treated with vaginal imiquimod 5% cream during 16 weeks. 2. Standard treatment arm (60 patients). Patients in this group will undergo LLETZ treatment.
Mammography screening has limited performance in young women or women with dense breasts although it is the only proven method for breast cancer screening that reduces the mortality. The investigators propose a multicenter trial of breast cancer screening to assess the effectiveness of supplemental ultrasonography for Korean women aged 40-59 years.
Introduction: With population ageing and increasing Westernization breast cancer continues to be important health conditions among women in Hong Kong. Greater collaborative research efforts are needed to examine the questions about population screening for breast cancer, the aetiology of such lesions and outcomes of breast cancer during survivorship period. There is a lack of locally-relevant models for assessing breast cancer risk. Contribution of novel genetic factors to breast cancer, identification of the key and functional alleles in gene regions associated with risk of breast cancer as well as gene-environment interaction, requires further investigation in Chinese population. Prognostic research studies in the West may not be readily applicable to the Chinese population. Objectives: We aim to investigate the aetiology and outcomes of breast cancer in local Chinese by using case-control and cohort study design in the health care setting in Hong Kong. We aim to examine potential risk factors/biomarkers (both traditional and novel), and to build infrastructure and biobank for breast cancer surveillance. We will follow up cases prospectively as a survivor cohort. Methods: A hospital-based case-control study and a prospective survivor cohort study will be conducted. Consecutive incident breast cancer and DCIS cases (n=3,501) within a 36-month period in Hong Kong were recruited from public hospitals, private hospitals and private practices; and controls were selected by frequency-matching on factors such as age and hospital/clinic setting, whenever possible. Cases will be prospectively followed up over a 10-year period, and data collection will occur at baseline (within 24 weeks of diagnosis), 3, 5 and 10 years following baseline assessment. Biologic samples (including both blood, and tumour and normal breast tissue samples from the cases, and blood samples from the controls) will be collected for later genetic and molecular study including WGS, GWAS, gene-environment interaction and molecular functional studies. Depending on availability of pathology samples and resources, additional studies such as tissue microarray block production will be considered and performed in future. Data will be analysed by traditional regression, EWAS and genetic association methods, whenever relevant. Public Health Implications: The repository of clinical, radiological and biological materials assembled through this case-control study will serve as a common, publicly accessible platform for subsequent functional analysis and scientific interrogation. The case-control findings would offer an improved understanding to the state of the science on aetiology of breast cancer in Chinese women. In the genomics analysis, potential refined classification of breast tumours may enhance our understanding, detection and follow-up of such lesions, as well as enable us to have more informed targeted and personalized treatment selection for our women population. The cohort study findings are important for developing an effective strategy for the improvement of overall survival and quality of life for the cancer survivors in Chinese population.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab works in treating patients with high risk oral intraepithelial neoplasia. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This study is aimed at identifying the efficacy of Tachosil® for prevention of hemorrhage in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or cervical cancer after undergoing a loop electrosurgical excisional procedure (LEEP). 1. Primary endpoint: Bleeding period within two weeks after surgery Frequency of additional treatment due to bleeding within two weeks after surgery 2. Secondary endpoint: Amount of bleeding within two weeks after surgery Infection frequency at external genitals, vagina and cervix within two weeks after surgery Change in life quality after surgery
The purpose of this study is to access the efficacy and safety of GX-188E according the protocol in patients with Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia 2, 2/3 or 3 (CIN3)
Single-arm, phase 2 study evaluating hypofractionated irradiation of breast and regional nodes in women with breast cancer. Patients will be grouped in 3 surgery-related treatment groups: 1) An intact breast following lumpectomy; 2) plans for loco regional external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) following mastectomy (with or without plans for reconstruction); and 3) plans for locoregional EBRT following mastectomy with reconstruction. Patients will be assessed for lymphedema, arm function, breast or chestwall pain, other EBRT-related adverse events, and, for patients who had a lumpectomy or mastectomy with reconstruction, cosmetic outcome.
This study is to follow up on the change of immune response by measuring HPV type 16/18 E6 and E7 specific T cell response and lesion condition in subjects who have administered in DNA-based therapeutic vaccine.
