Filter by:Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in the world. In France, 58,000 new cases were detected in 2018. Breast cancer is therefore the most common cancer in women. The 5-year survival rate for all stages combined is 88%. These excellent survival figures have been achieved thanks to improvements in treatment, including the advent of chemotherapy. The majority of patients will be cured of their cancer, so post-cancer quality of life is a major issue, hence the importance of trying to reduce long-term sequelae. Taxanes are one of the main cytotoxic anticancer agents used in the treatment of breast cancer. However, taxanes have a direct effect on the central and peripheral nervous systems and can induce chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). The mechanisms of NPIC by taxanes are not fully understood. CINP is manifested by symptoms of paresthesia, numbness, burning, pain, altered temperature perception, myalgia, myopathy, fine motor difficulties, gait and balance disturbances, muscle weakness in the lower limbs and/or functional decline. NPIC occurs in 80 to 97% of patients treated with taxanes and is the main limiting toxicity during paclitaxel administration. NPIC often leads to postponement or reduction of dose, or even discontinuation of treatment. In addition, NPIC may last for several months or even years after the end of anti-cancer chemotherapy and represents the main long-term sequelae. This can promote and/or exacerbate symptoms of psychological distress (depressive symptoms and symptoms of anxiety) and lead to a reduction in quality of life (QoL). Prevention of NIPC is therefore a major issue in breast cancer treatment. According to the 2014 guidelines from the American Society of Clinical Oncology, prevention and treatment of IPN are inadequate with current weapons, and there is an urgent need to evaluate and find new methods of prevention. One of the challenges in the management of NIPC will be to reduce the pain induced without diminishing the anti-tumour effect of anti-cancer agents. In recent years, the effectiveness of cryotherapy using a frozen glove and compression therapy using surgical gloves (SG) in preventing taxane-induced PINC has been reported. During chemotherapy, patients wore a frozen glove on one hand and two surgical gloves of the same size on the other hand continuously. Recent study explained how compression therapy and cryotherapy shared a similar mechanism of reducing drug exposure due to vasoconstriction during paclitaxel infusion. The low temperature associated with cryotherapy would reduce paclitaxel uptake and peripheral nerve damage, or mechanotransduction, and allow a reduction in NIPC. To date, no study has investigated the efficacy of combining the two means of prevention. The current standard at the Centre Antoine Lacassagne is cryotherapy. The aim of this prospective, self-controlled trial is therefore to compare the efficacy of cryotherapy combined with compression prevention versus cryotherapy alone in preventing paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients undergoing adjuvant treatment for localised breast cancer.
This is a pilot study to evaluate the effects of azeliragon to decrease cardiac toxicity from chemotherapy and the safety of azelirgaon when given with chemotherapy. The Investigators hypothesize that there will be no significant interaction with Azeliragon and chemotherapy and that targeting the RAGE pathway will decrease anthracycline related cardiotoxicity and chemotherapy related cognitive decline.
The aim of this study is to asses the oncological safety of oncoplastic breast surgery, its impact on patient satisfaction and is it worthy for general breast surgeon to learn different oncoplastic techniques.
This is a study of how one or more injections of HSP-130 under the skin effect the white blood cell counts and drug levels in women with breast cancer that has not spread to distant sites in the body (non-metastatic). This will be studied in women before breast surgery or while receiving chemotherapy. Safety will also be studied. Additionally, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects and safety of single and multiple doses of HSP-130 in subjects with non-metastatic breast cancer. This study will determine the dose to move forward for future clinical trials.
The purpose of this study is to see how many patients develop hair, skin and nail changes due to cancer treatments. The investigators would like to study the clinical factors, genetic markers, and impact on patients' health-related quality of life to learn more about who is at greater risk. We trust that the study will improve our understanding of how cancer patients feel about their skin, hair, and nail conditions. This information will help us determine the burden on breast cancer patients and survivors. It will also help us learn how to prevent these conditions and it may improve the way we treat them and counsel patients.
Many breast cancer patients (BCP) will gain weight during chemotherapy and about 10% of them are able to find back to their initial weight after all treatments are finished. Other studies have shown that overweight at diagnosis was associated to a twice higher risk of relapse while a weight gain during treatments increased by 30% to 50% the risk of relapse. In western countries, 75% of BCP have insufficient physical activity. Dietary and activity programs seem to be able to significantly reduce the mortality risk after breast cancer. The investigators performed a prospective randomized trial consisting in dietary counseling, physical training and physiotherapy in hydrothermal centers. Intervention were delivered in small group session lasting 12 days. SPA cares were offered to patients. Patients in the control group also received dietary counseling given by a dietetician inside anticancer hospital, and were asked to perform more physical activities. Main endpoints of the trial addressed quality of life (SF36) one year after inclusion, weight reduction, anxiety/depression (HAD), sleep quality and long term compliance to instructions. An economic study was associated to the protocol, for volunteers only.
The biological response to treatment with tamoxifen in the preoperative situation is studying in this protocol. This study will enrolls patients with non-metastatic breast cancer HR +. The relationship between the CYP2D6 polymorphism, pharmacokinetics and biological efficacy of TAM will be studied.
