The goal of this retrospective multicenter observational study is to understand and evaluate the diagnostic and therapeutic management of pure forms of Florid Lobular Carcinoma In Situ (FLCIS) and Pleomorphic Lobular Carcinoma In Situ (PLCIS) of the breast. It addresses the significant challenges and controversies surrounding their clinical management, due to a lack of consensus or approved international guidelines. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - How is the diagnostic process for pure FLCIS and PLCIS currently managed? - What are the primary therapeutic approaches for these specific breast conditions? - How are positive and "close" surgical excision margins handled? - Is adjuvant treatment, such as hormone therapy and radiotherapy, necessary? - What factors are associated with recurrences? - What are the rates of recurrences and/or upgrade to invasive carcinoma? Participants will retrospectively collect all cases of pure FLCIS and PLCIS, reporting detailed data about their diagnostic and therapeutic management, as well as clinical and survival outcomes. Methodology: This international multicenter retrospective study will collect cases involving the pure forms of FLCIS and PLCIS of the breast. The study aims to provide insights into the current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, along with the identification of opportunities to enhance clinical management, ultimately providing evidence-based recommendations and addressing the current lack of scientific literature regarding their treatment.
This pilot observational study is being done to identify possible biomarkers of response to endocrine therapy in patients with ER/PR+ metastatic lobular breast cancer (LBC) starting new endocrine therapy. 18F-fluorofuranylnorprogesterone Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (FFNP-PET/CT) and liquid biopsies will be performed at baseline and after 4 weeks of treatment. Baseline levels and dynamic on-treatment changes in estrogen signaling as measured by FFNP-PET/CT and circulating tumor cell (CTC) liquid biopsy will be correlated with clinical response to endocrine therapy and progression-free survival in the above cohort of patients.
This is a prospective observational registry for patients with invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) of the breast. After the first 1cohort is enrolled, the collected data will be utilized to develop an ILC specific response assessment tool.
This study aims to explore the diagnostic validity of [18F]FES PET/CT for the evaluation of axillary lymph node metastasis in patients with invasive lobular breast cancer having clinically suspected or confirmed axillary lymph node metastasis.
Lobular Breast cancer staging with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET) is not optimal due to the poor accumulation of 18F-FDG in the tumour. Through better sensitivity (and specificity), 68Ga-FAPI-46-46 PET should provide a more accurate staging of lobular breast cancer than 18F-FDG PET.
This phase II trial tests how well neratinib prior to the primary treatment (neoadjuvant) works in treating patients with stage I-III HER2 mutated lobular breast cancers. Neratinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells. Giving neratinib in addition to normal therapy may work better in treating cancer than the endocrine therapy patients would normally receive.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether lattice radiation therapy (LRT) is an effective radiation therapy technique when compared to standard stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). The study will also study how the different radiation therapy techniques (LRT and SBRT) affect how many immune cells are able to attack and kill tumor cells (immune infiltration).
This study evaluates whether adding a polygenic risk score evaluation to standard breast cancer risk assessment tools helps African American and Hispanic women make more informed decisions about accepting additional breast cancer screening and prevention strategies. Traditional breast cancer risk assessments rely mostly on the presence of standard clinical risk factors including family history, reproductive history, and mammographic breast density. This information can be combined with validated risk estimation models to provide a measure of a patient's 10 year and lifetime risk for breast cancer. A polygenic risk score helps to estimate breast cancer risk in a more individualized way by evaluating a patient's genetics. Adding a polygenic risk score evaluation to traditional screening techniques may help minority women make more informed decisions about screening and prevention strategies for breast cancer.
This research study is creating a way to collect and store specimens and information from participants who may be at an increased risk of developing cancer, or has been diagnosed with an early phase of a cancer or a family member who has a family member with a precursor condition for cancer. - The objective of this study is to identify exposures as well as clinical, molecular, and pathological changes that can be used to predict early development of cancer, malignant transformation, and risks of progression to symptomatic cancer that can ultimately be fatal. - The ultimate goal is to identify novel markers of early detection and risk stratification to drive potential therapeutic approaches to intercept progression to cancer.
