NCT00776126
Mammography remains the current standard in the detection of breast cancer. However, conventional two-view mammography will not detect all cancers. The major limiting factor of conventional mammography is the presence of superimposed breast tissue that can obscure clinically significant lesions. It is this limitation that decreases the sensitivity of mammography and leads to false negative results. The recent development of digital detectors has allowed imaging technologies such as tomosynthesis to become clinically feasible. The examination, similar to conventional mammography with regard to patient positioning and glandular dose, allows acquisition of a digital data set that can be reconstructed and viewed in multiple sections. The ability of tomosynthesis to unmask overlapping structures has been shown in preliminary studies to increase lesion visibility. Used as either a primary imaging modality, or as an adjunct to screening mammography, tomosynthesis has the potential to provide increased sensitivity and a lower number of false negative examinations. The purpose of this study is to compare radiologist impression of digital breast tomosynthesis to digital mammography with respect to their ability to see and characterize specific lesion features.
NCT00171704
Estrogen is known to be a regulator of bone and lipid metabolism. Letrozole is a potent inhibitor of estrogen synthesis. This study evaluated the effects of letrozole and tamoxifen on bone and lipid metabolism in postmenopausal women with resected, receptor positive early breast cancer.
NCT02604030
Our objective is to identify the possible changes of three-dimensional scapula movement during arm elevation in women after breast cancer surgery and subjected to a physical therapy intervention. Also to evaluate pain, upper limb function and quality of life. Methods: Will be evaluated 25 women with a clinical diagnosis of breast cancer and 25 healthy controls women with no history of musculoskeletal disorders of upper limbs and matched with age and body mass index. Two pre-surgical evaluations in the month prior to surgical treatment of breast cancer and two post-surgical assessments are going to be assess: the first, after 4 weeks after surgery, when patients have received 8 sessions of physical therapy in upper limb; the second, after 8 weeks after surgery, when patients completed 16 sessions of physical therapy for shoulder complex . In each evaluation, bilateral scapular kinematics will be analyzed by an electromagnetic tracking device during arm elevation in scapula plane, in breast cancer group. Range of motion will by assessed by a digital inclinometer and muscle strength by a hand held dynamometer. Also, pain will be assessed by visual analog scale and upper limb function by DASH questionnaire. Quality of life is going to be evaluated by 36 questionnaire -item Short Form Health Survey (SF36).
NCT03046238
To Evaluate the effect of addition of Dexmedetomedine to ultrasound guided modified Pecs block on post operative analgesia \& stress response in patient undergoing modified radical mastectomy.
NCT00086957
RATIONALE: Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining gefitinib and trastuzumab with docetaxel may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the best dose of docetaxel when given together with gefitinib and trastuzumab in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer.
NCT03051503
to determine the safety, efficacy and tolerability of transdermal fentanyl in patients undergoing mastectomy, as well as the postoperative consumption of analgesic.
NCT01120158
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and effect on quality of life of weekly paclitaxel plus bevacizumab as first line treatment in elderly patients (≥ 70 years old) with metastatic breast cancer. Furthermore, the efficacy of the combination therapy will be correlated with the functional status of patients according to the comprehensive geriatric assessment.
NCT00237198
* Safety and efficacy of letrozole 2.5 mg/day monotherapy as second-line endocrine therapy in postmenopausal patients with advanced breast cancer who received previous anti-estrogen treatment * To investigate changes in blood drug concentrations and blood hormone kinetics. * To investigate gene polymorphisms of CYP2A6, an enzyme involved in the metabolism of letrozole
NCT03061773
The treatment of breast cancer at any given time can be through surgery, as well as adjuvant treatments (radiotherapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy) alone or together. And with this the patient tends to lose weight, he becomes depressed, resulting in an increasingly debilitating picture. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the relationship between physical exercise and its effects on quality of life in patients with breast cancer, those who underwent surgery for at least 6 months, patients who are still with the Tumor using the adjuvant treatments submitted to physical exercises and not submitted. The sample will consist of 25 to 50 female patients aged 18 to 75 years. Patients will be submitted to the initial quality of life evaluation (SF - 36 reduced version, Anxiety and depression (HAD Scale), Fatigue (Piper Fatigue Scale), Pain (Brief Inventory of Pain), Body Composition (Bioimpedance BYODINAMICS 450 ) And oxidative stress markers (oxidized and reduced glutathione, TBARS / MDA, Myeloperoxidase and Creatinine), inflammatory markers (IL1, IL6, IL8, IL10, MCP-1 and TNF-α), hormones Estrogen, progesterone), blood test (complete blood count) 24 hour food recall (24hs food recall), and perform the maximum repetition test to find the initial workload that will be adjusted every 4 weeks with the evaluation of the load and Completing the 12 weeks of training will be reevaluated following the initial evaluation. The data collected will be treated statistically with an α=5% using the software Stata 12.0.
NCT01060085
The primary objective of this study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) versus that of Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CEMRI) in determining the size of breast cancer preoperatively. Secondary objectives include: 1. Comparing the operating characteristics of each combined imaging protocol with respect to the reference standard, i.e. histopathologic assessment, of additional non-index lesions. 2. Comparison of re-excision rates based on estimated disease extent from adjunctive CEMRI vs. adjunctive DBT. 3. Evaluation of patient satisfaction with regard to the adjunctive modality (DBT vs. CEMRI).
NCT02662868
The purpose of this study is to describe demographics and socioeconomics characteristics associated to the diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer in Brazil.
NCT00248911
Women with breast cancer and other gynecologic cancers often suffer significant distress and disability from their disease. A practice of meditation-based stress reduction and cognitive-affective-behavioral learning may help women with these conditions decrease their suffering and improve their quality of life.
NCT00896623
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at DNA in tissue samples from women with breast cancer to see if it can predict treatment outcome.
NCT02479217
The primary objective of this study is to observe safety and tolerability of Xeloda as used in medical practice, alone and in combination with docetaxel.
NCT00003761
This protocol is designed to evaluate the side effects of rV-DF3/MUC1 and to determine the safest dose which should be used in the treatment of breast cancer.
NCT01120561
