Evaluating the Effect of Curcumin in Preventing Paclitaxel-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Breast Cancer Patients
Paclitaxel induced peripheral neuropathy is the most common and serious side effect associated with Paclitaxel treatment in breast cancer patients receiving Paclitaxel. The efficacy of antioxidant molecules as neuroprotective strategies to preventing the development of peripheral neuropathy has been investigated in preclinical and clinical studies. Vitamin E and Glutathione have been explored as adjuvant therapies to preventing taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy. Other tested neuroprotective treatments with limited success include amifostine, glutamine and acetyl l-carnitine. Curcumin's antioxidant capacity is similar to other potent antioxidants, such as trolox (a vitamin E analog). Curcumin inhibits lipid peroxidation in different tissues, regulates intracellular levels of antioxidant enzymes (e.g., catalase, glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase) and is an effective intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger. The investigators are going to investigate the neuroprotective effect of Curcumin against Paclitaxel induced peripheral neuropathy.

Developing an Online Individual Intervention Program to Make Sense of People's Experiences After a Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Examining Its Effectiveness
The unexpected changes caused by the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer can lead individuals to question their beliefs, life meanings, and goals, prompting a search for meaning. According to Park and Folkman's (1997) Meaning-Making Model, the process of meaning making functions as a coping mechanism. It helps individuals adapt challenging experiences into their lives, ultimately assisting in their psychological adjustment to stressful situations. Based on this theoretical model, principles from meaning therapy (Wong, 2010), literature reviews, interviews with breast cancer patients, and expert consultation, an 8-week online individual psychological intervention was developed. It was aimed at facilitating the finding of new meanings in the experience of breast cancer and promoting psychological well-being. It includes psycho-educational, cognitive, existential, and behavioral components explicitly focusing on the meaning-making process. This intervention is called the Meaning Centered Coping Program (MCCP). The main purpose of this study was to test whether the MCCP was an effective intervention program for women diagnosed with breast cancer. For this purpose, the study sample consisted of women with stage I, II, and III breast cancer. Then, participants were randomly assigned to the MCCP group and the wait-list control group. A number of reliable and valid measurement tools were used to compare the MCCP group with the waitlist control group and to examine the effect of the program. Compared with the control group, significant improvements were expected in the level of meaning in life, post-traumatic growth, situational meanings, psychological inflexibility, and psychological well-being in the MCCP group.

Management of Patients With Thalassemia Minor and Breast Cancer at CardioOncology Outpatient Clinics: Age Quod Agis (AQUA)
This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the demographic characteristics, clinical conditions in term of physical examination findings), functional status, and laboratory results of patients with thalassemia minor (TM) and breast cancer (BC) in order to identify any differences between the group with BC only. Available data as anticancer treatment, comorbidities, weight and height will be combined to report body mass index (BMI) in kg/m2, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, ECG, transthoracic echocardiography, blood count, lipid panels, glucose, kidney function tests, (N terminal) NT-proBNP, troponins, handgrip assessments, functional status were extracted from patients files and hospital electronic archives.

Evaluating the Effect of Montelukast on Doxorubicin Induced Cardiotoxicity in Breast Cancer Patients.
This is a prospective, randomized (1:1) controlled trial that will be carried out on 50 patients who are candidate to evaluate the effect of montelukast on doxorubicin induced cardiotoxicity after 4 cycles of AC. Patients will be randomly allocated into two equal groups (25 patients each); group (A) for controlled (placebo), and group (B) for montelukast. Blood samples will be collected from the study subjects and analyzed for serum levels of the NF-KB and pro-BNP. Assessment of the biomarkers will be done at two time points: at baseline and after treatment with montelukast.

Meridian Yoga on Chemotherapy-induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Breast Cancer Patients
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common side effect in breast cancer patients with completion of chemotherapy, and that is characterized by associated clinical symptoms such as pain, tingling, numbness, and paresthesia etc. CIPN also interferes with patients' functions of daily living and leads to chronic functional decline and a reduced quality of life. Meridian yoga is beneficial to the treatment of patients with peripheral neuropathy and the improvement of their quality of life.

Targeting Triple-negative Breast Cancer or ER-positive, PR Positive her2 Negative by Alkaline Glucosodiene Molecules Via a Metabolic Pathway Phase I Clinical Trial
The diverse group of breast tumors known as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) which is lethally and deadly type of breast cancer and insensitive to endocrine therapy and HER2-targeted therapy because it lacks the expression of estrogen, progesterone, and human epidermal growth factor receptors TNBC makes up almost 15% of all invasive breast cancers, and of all breast tumor subtypes, it has the worst overall survival and the highest rate of metastatic occurrence. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is the main established systemic therapy for early and advanced TNBC disease at the moment because there is no authorized targeted therapy. Despite the fact that chemotherapy greatly improves clinical outcomes for TNBC patients, recurrence rates are still high and TNBC cancers frequently develop chemotherapeutic drug resistance ). In light of the few available therapy choices, so few choices for this subtype of breast cancer, and many cases are resistant to chemotherapy and recurrent and with a risk of high metastasis from previous literature and many experimental studies, the target of glucose environment is a promising weapon against this deadly type of breast cancer so glucose deprivation from tumor cells may cut the glucose entry as fuel to these cancer cells so this study uses a substitute energy fuel by using alkaline glucosodiene which is chemically invented by Maher M.AKL

89Zr-DFO*-Trastuzumab PET in Patients With Gastric or Breast Cancer - a Pilot Study
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new PET tracer in patients with HER2-positive breast or gastric cancer. This tracer is made of radioactively labeled trastuzumab, and can show where HER2 is present in the body using a PET-scan. For this research, the investigators make PET-scans in people with HER2-positive, metastasized breast- or gastric cancer. The investigators will investigate if the new HER2-tracer correctly shows all tumor lesions. In the future, this method may be useful to help predict who will benefit from certain HER2-directed therapies. Participants will be injected with the radioactive tracer once. After injection, participants will undergo 3 PET-scans. Each PET-scan will take a maximum of 60 minutes. The PET-scans are on separate days within a week after injection of the tracer (e.g. 1 day, 2 days and 4 days after injection). Furthermore, the investigators will take 7 blood samples (5 mL each). Participants are not required to stay at the hospital. The first 3 participants will undergo an extra PET-scan 1 - 2 hours after injection. The amount of radioactivity injected will be 37 MBq (± 10%).
