NCT00003162
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. It is not yet known which radiation therapy regimen is more effective for bone metastases. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare different radiation therapy regimens in treating patients who have bone metastases from breast or prostate cancer.
NCT00486668
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether breast cancer tumors respond (as measured by pathologic complete response: the absence of microscopic evidence of invasive tumor cells in the breast) to combined chemotherapy of AC(doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide) followed by paclitaxel plus trastuzumab or lapatinib or both given before surgery to patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. Trastuzumab will also be given to all patients after surgery. The study will also evaluate the toxic effects of the chemotherapy combination, including effects on the heart, and will determine survival and progression-free survival 5 years after treatment. Also, the study will look at whether there are gene expression profiles in the tumor tissue that can predict pathologic complete response.
NCT00022087
RATIONALE: Zoledronate plus calcium and vitamin D may prevent bone loss in patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. It is not yet known which regimen is more effective in preventing bone loss. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two regimens of zoledronate plus calcium and vitamin D to see how well they work in preventing bone loss in women who are receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer.
NCT00303108
The purpose of this study is to determine the ORR associated with Doxil in combination with carboplatin in HER2- (negative) MBC (and with Herceptin in HER2+ MBC).
NCT01075100
Ixabepilone adds significantly to the antitumor effectiveness of capecitabine in both ER+ and triple negative breast cancer. Ixabepilone has substantial antitumor activity in taxane-refractory patients and novel combinations are needed in this poor prognosis population. Carboplatin in combination with gemcitabine or paclitaxel has activity in metastatic breast cancer (MBC); there is also demonstrated activity of the gemcitabine/carboplatin combination in the ER+ versus triple negative subsets. A Phase I study of ixabepilone plus carboplatin in solid tumor patients demonstrated the safety of this combination at the doses and schedule proposed for this Phase II trial (BMS data on file).
NCT00516698
RATIONALE: Studying changes in breast density and blood hormone levels in women receiving anastrozole or exemestane for breast cancer may help doctors learn more about the long-term effects of treatment and may help the study of breast cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying changes in breast density and blood hormone levels in postmenopausal women receiving anastrozole or exemestane for breast cancer.
NCT00087399
RATIONALE: Gabapentin may be effective in relieving hot flashes in women who have had breast cancer or who have concerns about taking hormone therapy to treat hot flashes. It is not yet known whether gabapentin is more effective with or without antidepressants in treating hot flashes. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying gabapentin and antidepressants to see how well they work compared to antidepressants alone in treating hot flashes in women who have had breast cancer or who have concerns about taking hormones to treat hot flashes.
NCT00022074
RATIONALE: Gabapentin may be effective for the control of hot flashes. It is not yet known if gabapentin is effective in treating hot flashes. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of gabapentin in controlling hot flashes in women who have breast cancer.
NCT00821886
In this phase II trial the investigators propose to evaluate ixabepilone in combination with carboplatin and trastuzumab as neoadjuvant therapy in locally advanced breast cancer patients. Patients with early stage, HER2-positive breast cancer will receive six cycles of neoadjuvant treatment with ixabepilone, carboplatin, and trastuzumab every three weeks prior to surgery; after surgery, patients will continue treatment with trastuzumab every three weeks until week 52. Concomitant with the post-operative trastuzumab treatment, patients with hormone receptor-positive tumors will receive anti-estrogen treatment. Also, after the completion of chemotherapy, patients may receive radiation treatment at the discretion of their physician.
NCT00825734
In this study, patients with metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer will receive treatment with ixabepilone and sorafenib until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. The Phase I portion of this study will determine the maximum tolerated doses (MTDs) of sorafenib and ixabepilone that may be used in combination for first- or second-line treatment of MBC. The MTDs identified in the Phase I portion of the study will be used in the Phase II portion which will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of sorafenib and ixabepilone in patients who have received at least one prior chemotherapy treatment in either the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting or following one prior MBC chemotherapy in MBC patients who had not received prior adjuvant or neoadjuvant breast cancer chemotherapy. This will be one of the initial trials investigating the use of this treatment combination for MBC. This trial will be conducted under the leadership of the Sarah Cannon Research Institute (SCRI) Oncology Research Consortium, a community-based, multi-center, clinical trial organization.
NCT00336102
RATIONALE: Learning about thyroid dysfunction in patients with breast cancer may help plan treatment and may help patients live more comfortably. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how often thyroid dysfunction happens in women with newly diagnosed stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer who are planning to undergo chemotherapy compared to how often it happens in healthy volunteers.
NCT00659373
RATIONALE: Learning about the long-term effects of adjuvant tamoxifen (T), adjuvant tamoxifen with ovarian function suppression (T+OFS), and exemestane with ovarian function suppression (E+ OFS) on brain function may help doctors plan cancer treatment. PURPOSE: This study is looking at brain function in premenopausal women who are receiving adjuvant tamoxifen (T) alone against those receive adjuvant tamoxifen (T+OFS) or exemestane (E+OFS) with ovarian function suppression (OFS) for early-stage breast cancer on clinical trial IBCSG-2402.
NCT00619762
This prospective, multicenter, open-label study will assess the clinical outcomes of the LTM product in three planned analyses. The primary objective of this study is to prospectively assess the clinical outcomes associated with the use of LTM in two-stage (expander then permanent implant) immediate post-mastectomy breast reconstruction.
NCT00634088
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and preliminary effectiveness of ixabepilone plus lapatinib with and without capecitabine in the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive or metastatic breast cancer.
NCT00216021
In vitro data suggest synergy between oxaliplatin and 5-FU. The combination of oxaliplatin with 5-fluorouracil produced objective response rates ranging from 27-34% in two studies of patients with prior chemotherapy. Capecitabine was designed as an orally administered, tumor selective fluoropyrimidine, preferentially converted to 5-FU at the tumor site by the higher levels of pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase (PyNPase) in tumor tissues compared to normal tissues. The end result is higher concentrations of 5-fluorouracil in tumor relative to surrounding normal tissue. This trial will investigate the activity of this novel capecitabine/oxaliplatin (CAPOX) combination in patients with advanced disease. In addition, an exploratory analysis will correlate response with thymidine synthase and thymidine phosphorylase expression in primary tumor samples.
NCT01209195
This study was a Phase 1 and pharmacologic open-labeled dose-escalation trial of MM-121 in combination with paclitaxel using a "3+3" design.
NCT01919229
This is a multi-center, open-label Phase II randomized pre-surgical pharmacodynamics study.
NCT01513083
This open-label, parallel group study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of trastuzumab emtansine in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer and normal or reduced hepatic function. Patients will receive trastuzumab emtansine intravenously on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
NCT00426556
