Filter by:This is an international, randomized, open-label, controlled, multicenter phase II clinical trial to investigate and compare the safety and efficacy of palbociclib combined with fulvestrant or letrozole in women with ER+, HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
This pilot clinical trial studies the safety of a dendritic cell vaccine when given with gemcitabine hydrochloride in treating patients with breast cancer that has spread beyond the breast and local lymph nodes to other organs in the body. The vaccine is made up of natural cells found in the blood, called dendritic cells, and peptides, or small fragments of protein which are loaded onto the dendritic cells. This combination may help activate the immune system against stromal cells, which are cells that help cancer cells survive in the body. Gemcitabine hydrochloride is a chemotherapy drug that is given before the vaccine to help shrink the tumor and control cells that may interfere with the activity of the vaccine. Interfering with the stromal cells that help support the growth of cancer cells may lead to the death of the cancer cells.
1. To induce immunity-mediated tumor response outside the radiation field (abscopal effect) after chemo-radiation of a metastatic site in metastatic breast cancer patients. 2. To monitor the induction of a T cell response. 3. To explore the role of PET scanning to assess tumor responses/abscopal effect.
The purpose of the study is to determine the frequency ESR1 mutations by Digital PCR in patient with metastatic breast cancer.
The primary objective is to examine the impact on progression-free survival of targeted therapy for breast cancer suggested by proteomic and genomic profiling.
PATRICIA is a phase II, open-label, multicentre, Simon's two-stage-design study of the combination of palbociclib plus trastuzumab, with or without letrozole, in post-menopausal patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who have received chemotherapy and treatment with trastuzumab for their metastatic disease. Cohorts A, B1, and B2 based on their HR status and treatment allocation were planned. Cohort A included patients with hormone receptor-negative, HER2 positive breast cancer, who received trastuzumab + palbociclib. Cohort B1 included patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2 positive breast cancer, who received trastuzumab + palbociclib. Cohort B2 included patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2 positive breast cancer, who received trastuzumab + palbociclib + letrozole. The aim of the PATRICIA study is to test the hypothesis that the addition of Palbociclib to standard therapy is well tolerated and can provide a benefit in progression-free survival. Based on interim results from this trial that support the benefit of CDK4 / 6 inhibition in luminal disease, two additional cohorts will be included.
This single-arm study aims to assess the safety and tolerability profile of Fulvestrant(Faslodex®) as 2nd line and later therapy in postmenopausal women with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. The primary objective is to evaluate the adverse events after Fulvestrant (Faslodex®) for about 6 months
In recent years, the advance in high-throughput techniques, such as microarrays and next gen sequencing (NGS) technologies, have allowed a more precise classification of the breast cancer molecular subtypes and a more personalized approach to anti-cancer therapy. To date, conventional methods to select patients for clinical trials with anti-targeted agents according to molecular criteria are generally limited to the analysis of a few biomarkers. Recent studies have shown how this strategy is inappropriate in case of infrequent molecular alterations and that the ideal strategy would consist in simultaneous examination of large numbers of actionable genomic alterations. This is the first genomic screening platform ever attempted in Spain. By this molecular platform SOLTI aims to increase the likelihood of a patient being included in a trial designed specifically for her molecular tumor type. Thus, the primary objective of this pilot study is to determine the Platform's effectiveness to include patients in clinical trials with targeted agents based on the tumor molecular profiling.
This is a prospective biomarker study to show that p4EBP1 staining predicts clinical benefit from treatment with everolimus in patients who are eligible for everolimus+exemestane treatment. This trial is not aimed at evaluating a drug activity. Everolimus and exemestane are prescribed within their approved indication as per usual practice and are not part of this trial.
This study evaluates the performance of a blood test for detecting biomarkers in metastatic breast cancer patients at one clinic against standard testing.
