Filter by:The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of personalized chemotherapy with low doses of cyclophosphamide administered taking into account the reparative cycle of tumor cells in participants with breast cancer (stage IV or disease progression). The main question it aims to answer is: Does personalized chemotherapy of breast cancer with low doses of cyclophosphamide, taking into account the reparative cycle of tumor cells, lead to a significant reduction in tumor size and improvement in the visual status of controlled tumor foci relative to their initial state? During the preparatory stage, a tumor sample from participant is harvested intraoperatively. The primary culture is obtained from this tumor tissue sample. Repair cycle time is estimated, and the day when tumor cells are synchronized at the cell cycle G2/M phase is identified. The schedule of administering cyclophosphamide and DNAmix complex composite preparation is calculated according to the resulting time points. According to the elaborated regimen, the participant receives 4 intravenous cyclophosphamide injections at the dose of 300 mg/m2 in combination with 4 injections of 1-12 mg of DNAmix administered into prominent tumor nidi and lymph depots. The participant receives from 2 to 6 courses of therapy. The interval between courses is 21 days.
The purpose of this preliminary research study is to see if patients discontinuing maintenance Herceptin and/or other anti-HER-2 treatments with monitoring in addition to radiologic imaging and routine blood work will stay in complete radiological remission and to determine how long patients are able to stay in complete radiological remission without treatment.
The goal of this clinical study is to see if sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (SG) can improve life spans of people with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer and their tumor does not grow or spread when compared to currently available standard treatments, such as paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel or capecitabine. The primary objective is to compare the effect of SG relative to the treatment of physician's choice (TPC) on progression-free survival (PFS).
This is a dose escalation study involving stage IV breast cancer patients not progressing after 6 months of first line systemic treatment. Potential advantages of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in treating breast primary tumor in metastatic breast cancer are: - radio-biological advantage of a short highly effective treatment schedule - possibility of preventing lesions to become symptomatic - possibility of continuing systemic treatment without interruption
This clinical trial implements a communication intervention to improve patient-oncologist communication in the outpatient medical oncology setting. A communication brochure called the ASQ brochure may help patients prepare for the doctor visit by thinking through the questions that patients and patients' family want to ask the doctor.
The primary objective of this study, sponsored by Travera in Massachusetts, is to validate whether the mass response biomarker has potential to predict response of patients to specific therapies or therapeutic combinations using isolated tumor cells from varying cancers and biopsy formats.
The purpose of this study is to refine and pilot test educational material developed to educate and support patients receiving immunotherapy for advanced cancer. The intervention is an educational video and question prompt list (QPL) to promote communication between patients, caregivers, and the oncology team about the risks and benefits of immunotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the cumulative Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Minimum Efficient Dose (MED) of BP-C1 in the short-term treatment of metastatic breast cancer patients.
The study designed is to evaluate the safety of Canady Helios™ Cold Plasma Scalpel (CHCPS) in patients with solid tumors with carcinomatosis scheduled to undergo surgical resection for cytoreduction. Patients with stage 4 resectable tumors as decided by a multidisciplinary disease management team may be included if the metastatic disease is non-synchronous (e.g. recurrent colorectal carcinoma with hepatic metastasis amenable for surgical resection).. Plasma is an ionized gas typically generated in high-temperature laboratory conditions. Plasma coagulators are currently used routinely as surgical tools with multiple applications that create temperatures between 37° C to 43°C and cause thermal injury. Earlier studies demonstrated the non-aggressive nature of cold plasma. As evidence accumulates, it is becoming clear that low-temperature cold plasma has an increasing role in biomedical applications.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of primary resection combined with systemic therapy and pure systemic therapy on the overall survival of patients with stage Ⅳ breast cancer.
