NCT00005970
This randomized phase III trial studies doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel, and trastuzumab to see how well they work compared to combination chemotherapy alone in treating women with breast cancer that is human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive and has spread to the lymph nodes or high-risk and has not spread to the lymph nodes. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without trastuzumab in treating breast cancer.
NCT00892515
RATIONALE: Exercise may change the risk of developing breast cancer. It is not yet known whether low-intensity exercise or high-intensity exercise is more effective in lowering the risk of breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well exercise programs work in healthy young women at increased risk of developing breast cancer.
NCT02559362
The goal of the study is to establish the feasibility/willingness of breast cancer patients to delay surgery to do an exercise program, or be randomized to an exercise training program following treatment, and to see if that willingness correlates with prior physical activity history.
NCT01292772
The primary objective of this study is to use LR imaging to evaluate the effects of adjuvant radiation therapy on reconstructed breasts.
NCT01320592
This study is a phase I, single arm, open-label trial of PD0332991 in combination with Paclitaxel in patients with Rb-expressing metastatic breast cancer. Up to 20 patients are anticipated to be enrolled to reach the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of PD0332991 in combination with Paclitaxel. Once the MTD is established, an additional expanded cohort of 10 patients will be enrolled at that dose to establish the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D), obtain additional safety data and perform exploratory biomarker studies.
NCT02597452
The primary purpose of this study is to measure the clinical utility (accuracy) of the hand-held breast scanner (iBE) for the detection of breast lesions or lumps. The iBE results will be compared to the results of a current mammogram and/or ultrasound. The duration of study participation is approximately 30 minutes one day.
NCT00079157
RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving a vaccine with Montanide ISA-51 and sargramostim may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy when given together with Montanide ISA-51 and sargramostim in treating patients with stage IV breast cancer.
NCT00003302
RATIONALE: New imaging procedures, such as MRI, may improve the ability to detect breast tumors. PURPOSE: Diagnostic study to determine the value of MRI in detecting breast tumors in women who have had suspicious mammographic or clinical examinations.
NCT00058058
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may improve the ability to detect cancer in the unaffected breast of women recently diagnosed with unilateral breast cancer. PURPOSE: Diagnostic trial to determine the effectiveness of MRI in evaluating the unaffected breast of women recently diagnosed with unilateral breast cancer.
NCT00390455
This randomized phase III trial studies fulvestrant and lapatinib to see how well they work compared to fulvestrant and a placebo in treating postmenopausal women with stage III or stage IV breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. Lapatinib may stop the growth of breast cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether fulvestrant is more effective with or without lapatinib in treating breast cancer.
NCT00684983
This phase II trial studies capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate to see how well they work compared with capecitabine, lapatinib ditosylate, and cixutumumab in treating patients with previously treated HER2-positive stage IIIB-IV breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, 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. Lapatinib ditosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with cixutumumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate are more effective when given with or without cixutumumab in treating breast cancer that has spread nearby or to other areas of the body.
NCT03988114
The reason for this study is to see if the drug abemaciclib in combination with nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors (anastrozole or letrozole) is effective in participants with Hormone Receptor Positive (HR+), Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer that have certain disease characteristics.
NCT01373671
The primary objective of this protocol is to collect the 2-dimensional (2D) screening and diagnostic images, and 3-dimensional (3D) Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) scans from patient mammography examinations acquired on various commercially available Full Field Digital Mammography (FFDM) systems and the Siemens Inspiration DBT system, respectively.
NCT00394082
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of weekly ABI-007 in combination with bevacizumab. The evaluation of progression-free survival of weekly ABI-007 in combination with bevacizumab for patients with previously untreated advanced/metastatic breast cancer.
NCT02202746
The purpose of this study is to determine whether lucitanib is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with FGF aberrant metastatic breast cancer, as well as in the treatment of patients with biomarker negative (FGF non-aberrant) metastatic breast cancer.
NCT02441946
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the biological effects of abemaciclib in combination with anastrozole and compare those to the effects of abemaciclib alone and anastrozole alone in the tumors of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer.
NCT00093145
This trial will treat patients with advanced breast cancer with a new anti-cancer medicine used in combination with two existing anti-cancer medications: Albumin-bound paclitaxel (ABI-007), Carboplatin and Herceptin. Participants will be given the combination therapy on a weekly basis and may continue on therapy as long as their condition improves and drug toxicity is tolerated.
NCT02753595
The primary objective for the study is as follows: For the Phase 1b - to determine safety tolerability and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of eribulin mesylate in combination with PEGylated recombinant human hyaluronidase (PEGPH20) in participants with Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) previously treated with up to two lines of systemic anticancer therapy in the metastatic setting. For the Phase 2 - to evaluate objective response rate (ORR) of eribulin mesylate in combination with PEGPH20 in participants with HER2-negative, High-Hyaluronan (HA)-high, MBC previously treated with up to 2 lines of systemic anticancer therapy in the metastatic setting.
NCT00394251
The primary objective of this study was to compare the safety of dose-dense ABI-007 (Abraxane) 260 mg/m\^2 or Taxol 175 mg/m\^2 given every 2 weeks following dose-dense Adriamycin plus Cytoxan (AC) chemotherapy. Bevacizumab was administered at 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks throughout chemotherapy, and then at 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks following chemotherapy.
NCT02307240
