NCT02910622
The choice of treatments for cancers by systemic way - chemotherapy, hormone therapy and targeted therapies - is currently defined by criteria for population groups and not to an individual. These expensive treatments - in financial terms and quality of life - will be effective for some and administered unnecessarily for other because there is no predictive test of response for a given individual. For breast cancer, the usual treatment includes the first surgery and adjuvant therapies (chemotherapy, hormonal therapy ...) whose effectiveness will be assessed after many years as the occurrence or not of a recurrence or metastases. These systemic treatments can also be administered before surgery to reduce the tumor volume and secondarily allow less mutilating surgery: it is the principle of treatment neo adjuvant. In this case, the efficiency will be evaluated more quickly. In practice, a patient with breast cancer suspicion has a biopsy which confirms the diagnosis and defined the parameters (hormone receptors, cytological grade, receptor monoclonal antibodies ...) that guide to the most appropriate type of treatment. Tumor size is evaluated in neo adjuvant pre-treatment by imaging: mammography, ultrasound and MRI. At the end of this medication, the evaluation of the response is achieved by radiology and surgery. Pathological examination evaluates and precise response by the criteria of Chevallier and / or Sataloff. An ex vivo test for predicting the response of cells to different chemotherapy regimens, the oncogramme, was developed by Oncomedics, a young company whose technology is derived from the University of Limoges. Clinical response and / or histopathological could be compared in a reasonable time (2-6 months), the results of the oncogramme proposed by Oncomedics whether the efficiency obtained in vivo is that predicted by the ex vivo test. It is the same in the metastatic setting when there is an available target for biopsy and assessment of response. The management of ovarian cancer in advanced stages can also benefit from a radiological and histopathological evaluation strategy before and after systemic treatment to compare the in vivo results with those predicted by ex vivo by Oncomedics.
NCT00691379
This study will evaluate the efficacy of weekly paclitaxel-carboplatin combination plus bevacizumab as first line treatment in patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer. Furthermore, the efficacy of the combination therapy will be correlated with the presence of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in this population
NCT02600299
As cancer mortality rates improve in Asia, there is an increasing focus on patient-reported outcomes and survivorship issues. In view of the numerous medication and psychosocial issues that are commonly faced by early-stage breast cancer survivors, it deems important to develop and conduct specific interventional programs to mitigate these problems. In the literature, it is well recognized that psychosocial interventions are effective to manage emotional distress and quality of life, with the evidence clearly clustered in studies on female patients with breast cancer. One meta-analysis suggested that psycho-oncologic interventions including individual psychotherapy, group psychotherapy, psychoeducation, relaxing training can produce positive effects on emotional distress, anxiety and depression, and health-related QOL. The investigators hypothesize that a significant reduction in anxiety, improvement of cognition and improvement of health-related quality of life among those who receive psycho-education, in comparison to those in the usual care. Hence, this randomized trial is designed to assess the effectiveness of a psycho-educational group (PEG) intervention on supportive care and survivorship issues, which include anxiety, depression, cognitive function, toxicities management of cancer- or treatment- related physical symptoms, and health-related quality of life in early-stage breast cancer patients.
NCT02355600
Survival in young patients with cancer has increased and also have increased the adverse long-term side effects of chemotherapy, there is a large number of women who experience loss of ovarian function without accomplishing their reproductive desire due to gonadotoxic treatment. The ovarian reserve determine the response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation in fertility preservation treatments as well as in assisted reproduction techniques. Improving this reserve by avoiding its depletion during the process could result in increase fertility rates after cancer treatment. Collecting follicles during tamoxifen treatment would increase the number of cryopreserved oocytes and thus rise the potential ovarian reserve in these patients, which is reduced due to age, chemotherapy and length of treatments. The aim of this study is to retrieve viable mature oocytes during adjuvancy with tamoxifen in breast cancer patients to improve the probability of subsequent pregnancy.
NCT02902991
Through this prospective clinical trial,the investigators will focus on the relationship between circulating tumor biomarkers (i.e. circulating tumor cells, circulating tumor DNA and other biomarkers) and the status of primary tumor to discuss its application for assessing prognosis and individualized therapeutic direction. Moreover, the relationship between the circulating tumor cell subpopulations based on epithelial-mesenchymal transition and molecular pathological classification of breast cancer will be determined, which may enable the determination of the value of its application in therapeutic decision making.

NCT01299623
We will develop and evaluate a community-based approach for disseminating comparative effective reviews (CERs) about breast cancer prevention to African American women. The specific aims of our research, as shown below, will target this population because of persistent disparities in breast cancer morbidity and mortality among this population. Our primary aims are: 1. To evaluate uptake of a community-based strategy for disseminating CERs about breast cancer prevention to African American women based on sociodemographic characteristics, beliefs about medical research, and medical history. We predict that participation in a community forum will be higher among women with greater socioeconomic resources, those who have a family history of breast cancer, and women who have more positive beliefs about research. 2. To evaluate the impact of evidential versus non-evidential content about breast cancer prevention on psychological and behavioral outcomes that include: knowledge of breast cancer risk factors and prevention strategies, communication with individuals in their social and medical network, and distrust of medical research. We predict that women who receive evidential content that is specific for African American women will report greater knowledge about breast cancer risk factors and prevention strategies, will be more likely to discuss breast cancer prevention strategies with individuals in their social and medical network, and will report greater reductions in distrust of medical research compared to those who receive non-evidential content.
NCT00603408
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Cisplatin when given with radiation therapy prior to surgery is effective in improving response to treatment in breast cancer patients. Tumor, blood and bone marrow samples will be collected in this study and will also help researchers determine if cisplatin is able to change tumor DNA so it cannot multiply itself and create more tumor cells, and cause the tumor cells to die.
