Filter by:This phase IIa trial studies the side effects of abemaciclib monotherapy in treating patients age 70 years and older with hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body.
This trial studies the impact of the breast cancer pathways program on the patient experience, including decision making and quality of life. Measuring how the breast cancer pathways program affects decision making and quality of life in patients may help doctors improve cancer education.
This study aims to investigate the role of a mobile health app, Outcomes4Me, in the navigation of care for people with breast cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well letrozole, anastrozole, or fulvestrant work when given together with ribociclib, palbociclib, and/or abemaciclib in treating patients with hormone receptor (HR) positive breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and has an ERS1 activating mutation. Letrozole, anastrozole, ribociclib, palbociclib, and abemaciclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. It is not yet known if giving letrozole, anastrozole, or fulvestrant with ribociclib, palbociclib, and/or abemaciclib will work better in treating patients with breast cancer.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of alpha-TEA when given together with trastuzumab and to see how well they work for the treatment of HER2+ breast cancer that does not respond to treatment (refractory) and has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Anti-cancer treatment, such as alpha-TEA, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Alpha-TEA may also alter cancer growth by stimulating the body's immune response against the tumor. Trastuzumab is a form of "targeted therapy" because it works by attaching itself to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab attaches to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the cancer cell may be marked for destruction by the body's immune system. Giving alpha-TEA and trastuzumab may work better for the treatment of HER2+ refractory and metastatic breast cancer compared to usual treatment.
This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of copanlisib when given together with trastuzumab and pertuzumab and to see how well they work after induction treatment in treating patients with HER2 positive stage IV breast cancer with PIK3CA or PTEN mutation. Copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Trastuzumab is a form of "targeted therapy" because it works by attaching itself to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab attaches to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the cancer cell may be marked for destruction by the body's immune system. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pertuzumab, may kill tumor cells that are left after chemotherapy. The addition of copanlisib to the usual treatment (trastuzumab and pertuzumab) could shrink the cancer or stabilize it for longer duration as compared to the usual treatment alone.
This phase II trial studies how well olaparib with cediranib or AZD6738 works in treating patients with germline BRCA mutated breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced or metastatic). Olaparib, cediranib, and AZD6738 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The goals of this prospective, observational cohort study are to determine the feasibility of implementing paclitaxel therapeutic drug monitoring for cancer patients and explore the relationship between paclitaxel drug exposure and the development of neuropathic symptoms. This trial studies if paclitaxel can be consistently measured in the blood of patients with solid tumors undergoing paclitaxel treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Nerve damage is one of the most common and severe side effects of paclitaxel. The ability to consistently measure paclitaxel in the blood may allow doctors to control the dose of paclitaxel, so that enough chemotherapy is given to kill the cancer, but the side effect of nerve damage is reduced.
This phase I/II trial studies the effects (good and bad) of adding copanlisib to the usual therapy of fulvestrant and abemaciclib in treating patients with hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (breast) to other places in the body (metastatic). Some breast cancer cells have receptors for the hormones estrogen or progesterone. These cells are hormone receptor positive and they need estrogen or progesterone to grow. This can affect how the cancer is treated. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. Abemaciclib and copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Adding copanlisib to the usual therapy of fulvestrant and abemaciclib may work better than giving fulvestrant and abemaciclib alone in treating patients with breast cancer.
Study objective: Cohort 1: To quantify the uptake of 68GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1 in local or distant metastases from breast carcinoma patients and to assess repeatability of the image-based HER2 quantification. The uptake will be correlated to results obtained via biopsy of the same lesion, if available. Cohort 2: To report on uptake of 68GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1 in different cancer types that might overexpress HER2 Cohort 3: To explore the feasibility and added value of 68GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1 in the neoadjuvant setting of HER2-expressing breast carcinoma Time schedule: After inclusion, patients will be injected intravenously with 37 - 185 MBq 68GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1 with a total mass of up to 200 μg NOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1. Serum and plasma samples will be collected at injection. At 90 min after injection, a total body PET/CT scan will be performed. Patients in cohort 1 will undergo a second PET/CT procedure, identical to the first procedure, within 8 days, with a minimal interval of 18h and maximal interval of 8 days. Patients in cohort 2 can undergo an optional 18F-FDG-PET/CT within 21 days prior to or after 68GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1. In cohort 1 and 2, based on PET/CT images, up to 2 lesions will be selected for optional image-guided biopsy. Biopsy will be performed max. 28 days after the last PET/CT. Plasma and serum samples will be obtained between 60 and 365 days after first injection for patients in cohort 1 and between 42 and 365 days after first injection for patients in cohort 2. Patients in cohort 3 will undergo 68GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1 PET/CT prior to the start of neoadjuvant treatment and again after the last cycle of neoadjuvant treatment but prior to surgery. Plasma and serum samples will be obtained before each injection and between 42 and 365 days after the last injection.
