NCT02437318
To determine whether treatment with alpelisib plus fulvestrant prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared to fulvestrant and placebo in men and postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-negative advanced breast cancer, who received prior treatment with an aromatase Inhibitor (AI) either as (neo)adjuvant or for advanced disease.
NCT05588414
Cohort, interventional, multicenter, non-randomized study to compare the performance of the ICG fluorescence technique (ICG) alone to the combined ICG + isotopic technique in the detection of sentinel node. Comparison of the performances of two techniques used in current practice, without modification of the patients' care plan. Indeed, all patients receive both techniques, but the protocol allows to standardize the collection of the performances of each of the two techniques in order to compare them.
NCT00984321
The purpose of this study is to examine whether psychoeducation counseling for older cancer patients undergoing treatment is feasible and worthwhile. The investigators will test this in a group or individual phone counseling format. Many cancer patients seek counseling to help with the emotional burden of their illnesses. Counseling often helps them cope with cancer by giving them a place to express their feelings. This geriatric-specific psychoeducation is intended to help older cancer patients cope with the burden of cancer and aging. The purpose of this study is to see if this type of counseling helps reduce depressive symptoms, anxiety, perception of loneliness and isolation. In addition this counseling aims to improve coping and quality of life (QOL). Individuals who choose not to take part in the intervention study will be asked if they are willing to participate in a brief refusal sub study. The purpose of the refusal substudy is to compare levels of distress in patients that choose to participate and those that decline. This will yield valuable data that will help us distinguish between patients that decline due to lack of interest in research and those that decline due to high levels of distress. Participation in the refusal sub study consists of completion of 2 brief questionnaires.
NCT06825975
The goal of the study is to explore the efficacy and safety of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the neoadjuvant treatment of triple-negative and HER2+ breast cancer patients
NCT04432454
This is an open-label, multicenter, single-arm safety study evaluating the safety and tolerability of the lasofoxifene and abemaciclib combination for the treatment of pre- and postmenopausal women with locally advanced or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer who have disease progression on first and/or 2nd lines of hormonal treatment for metastatic disease and have an ESR1 mutation.
NCT03941639
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death for women around the world. Notably, most breast cancer patients die from tumor metastases in the liver, lungs, bones, or brain, not the primary tumor itself. Currently, clinicians are generally successful in treating primary tumors using standard protocols that are based on tumor sub-type and staging, as well as by the presence or absence of prognostic biomarkers. However, it remains difficult to assess in advance the likelihood of metastasis or relapse in any given patient.Physicians can only rely on regular post-treatment screening to monitor any secondary onset. By the time metastasis is detected, the golden window for treatment adjustment has often already passed. This project proposes to develop an analytical tool for predicting the likelihood of metastasis in breast cancer patients post-treatment using imaging and genomic data. We will evaluate our prediction model using prospectively-collected patient data. This new prognostic tool will enable physicians to adjust and tailor therapeutic strategies to each patient in a timely manner. Overall, the tool will personalize patient care, and improve their survival chances and quality of life.
NCT05821686
This study is a single arm, phase II pilot design. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intralesional immunotherapy (e.g. IL-2) in early stage TNBC. The overall objective of the research study is to advance our knowledge of novel immunotherapies and routes of administration for the treatment of TNBC HYPOTHESES: Neoadjuvant treatment of TNBC with intralesional IL-2 is safe and well tolerated and can produce a pathological response. Aim 1: Examine the safety and possible efficacy of a novel neoadjuvant intralesional intervention (IL-2) for patients with early-stage TNBC.
NCT04356209
Conserving surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy is currently the therapeutic standard for patient with Breast Cancer. Symptoms are common among patients receiving this treatment. Ten percent of them will develop severe and chronic radio-induced toxicities, such as breast radio-induced-fibrosis impairing their quality of life (QoL). Yet, paying attention to symptom improves the empowerment and psychological adjustment to the disease. Web-based systems that can provide electronic-Patient reported Outcomes (e-PRO) have been shown to prompt clinicians to intensify symptom management, to improve symptom control, and to enhance patient-clinician communication patient satisfaction, as well as well-being.Benefits of systems to elicit e-PRO improve reliable measure of health-related quality of life (QoL) remains discussed. To date, there are few specific treatments for these severe radio-induced fibrosis except the antifibrotic combinaison Pentoxifylline/Vitamin E with inconsistent result. Since 2000, we and others have developed a mechanistic approach modulating the severity of RIF by targeting the Rho/ROCK/CTGF pathway, especially by inhibiting Rho activation by pravastatin. Our preclinical data, then followed by the Phase II PRAVACUR-01 trial, concluded that the use of pravastatin has an anti-fibrotic action on different experimental models and reduces the severity of the grade of fibrosis in 50% of patients. Patients can now benefit from this new anti-fibrotic agent. Taken as a whole, these data encourage combining both drug (pravastatin) and non-pharmacological intervention , in particular e-PRO, in the RIF management.
NCT05056350
The diagnosis of breast cancer and the treatments implemented have a significant impact on the professional situation. Maintaining employment and/or reintegration into working life are therefore major issues for cancer patients. This trial proposes to study the feasibility of a support/coaching program for a return to work in patients after breast cancer.
NCT03760588
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. The modern post-surgery treatment with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and hormone therapy has improved the overall 5-years survival drastically. However, an unwanted effect of the post-surgery treatment is its potentially deleterious effect on the heart resulting in cardiac dysfunction. Angiotensin antagonists are used as part of the heart failure treatment. In smaller studies angiotensin antagonists have shown to have a cardioprotective effect during breast cancer treatment. Sacubitril/valsartan is a potent drug that in addition to an angiotensin antagonist contains a neprilysin inhibitor. Sacubitril/valsartan has proved to be superior to enalapril in chronic heart failure. In this randomized placebo controlled double blind trial we hypothesize that sacubitril/valsartan used concomitantly during anthracycline containing chemotherapy for breast cancer treatment prevents cardiac dysfunction as measured by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). PRADA II is a Norwegian multicenter trial intending to recruit 214 patients and follow them for 18 months with CMR, cardiac ultrasound, blood samples, functional capacity tests and health related quality of life questionnaires.
NCT04744506
This study evaluates the efficacy and feasibility of Carbon Nanoparticle Suspension Injection (CNSI) for Targeted Axillary Dissection (TAD) in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), compared to traditional clip-based methods. By leveraging CNSI's enhanced visibility and stability, the study aims to improve the precision of lymph node removal, reduce surgical complications, and potentially transform clinical practices. Conducted across multiple centers, this randomized controlled trial focuses on clinical outcomes such as lymph node retrieval rates and the accuracy of surgical staging, aiming to establish a safer, more effective approach to managing axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer surgery.
NCT04282122
Severe but also moderate toxicities after curative-intent radiotherapy (RT), such as a poor cosmetic outcome following breast cancer can have a negative impact on quality of life and a marked effect on subsequent psychological outcome. Nevertheless, current practice standards commonly prescribe radiation dose and volume without regard to individual radiosensitivity. In that context, a normal tissue radiosensitivity test that includes a rapid (72 h) radiosensitivity assay based on flow cytometric assessment of radiation-induced CD8 T-lymphocyte apoptosis (RILA) and other significant clinical parameters (multifactorial nomogram) was developed. Omission of radiotherapy has been suggested when luminal A tumor subtype is combined with clinical and pathologic factors defining a subgroup of patients with a low risk of ipsilateral breast recurrence. In this group, the benefits of radiotherapy are small \[6\]. Reduction of the breast irradiated volume is also a possibility that has been tested and published using IORT, brachytherapy or external beam radiotherapy. Hypofractionation has been adapted to breast cancer radiotherapy. Overall, all recent clinical trials \[13, 14\] showed only few late effects when hypofractionation was delivered to the whole breast (WB). These results reinforce the need of patients' selection using the NovaGray Breast® test. Our hypothesis is therefore that the different techniques (volume reduction or hypofractionation) as well as radiotherapy omission will significantly reduce grade ≥2 bf+ in a personalized approach (driven by a predictive assay of late effects) compared to WB hypofractionation in a selected population at low risk of breast recurrence. We would like to establish a prospective evaluation of daily practice including the individual radiosensitivity test to the decision of daily practice
NCT06818370
İn this study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of coconut oil on alopecia in 86 female breast cancer patients treated at Dr Abdurrahman Yurtaslan Ankara Oncology Training and Research Hospital between 01.02.2025-31.12.2025.
NCT00569049
This is a research-based study that is looking at the biologic features of breast tissue, lymph node tissue, or blood in order to study breast cancer development growth, and spread. Through tissue and/or blood samples we hope to gain further knowledge and understanding of how to improve diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer by identifying the molecular markers that predict clinical outcome and response to therapy.
NCT06773143
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore whether subanesthetic doses of esketamine can improve the sleep quality of patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer. In this study, 184 people are expected to participate from admission to three days after surgery. The process requires participants to cooperate with the completion of the digital rating scale, the Athens Insomnia Scale, the Visual Analog Pain Rating Scale, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Rating Scale, and the collection of venous blood for research indicators (IL-6, TNF-α, cor, BDNF). If participants agree to participate in this study, the investigators will assign a unique identification number to each participant and create a medical record for participants. One day before surgery, the investigators will conduct assessments using the Athens Insomnia Scale, the Visual Analog Pain Rating Scale, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and collect approximately 6 mL of venous blood. One day after surgery, the investigators will repeat the assessments using the Athens Insomnia Scale, the Visual Analog Pain Rating Scale, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Additionally, the investigators will collect another 6 mL of venous blood and monitor the use of analgesics. The investigators will follow up with participants three days after the surgery. During this follow-up, investigators will assess any sleep disturbances, administer the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and review the use of analgesics.
NCT06817954
The new technology of endoscopic-assisted system, as an emerging technology, has shown certain application prospects in breast surgery. However, the new technology of endoscopic-assisted mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction in China in the treatment of breast cancer is still in the exploratory stage and needs to be further improved. This prospective, single-center, double-arm clinical study was conducted to use the endoscopic-assisted system and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the mastectomy combined with immediate breast reconstruction in breast cancer.
NCT05591547
This study will use an adjuvant radiation therapy regimen called APBI (accelerated partial breast irradiation). APBI is a treatment option available to women considered to have an early stage, low-risk breast cancer. The standard external beam-based APBI treatment delivers treatments every other day for five treatments, over ten calendar days. The APBI in this study is modified and will deliver five once daily treatments over consecutive treatment days, with a slightly lower dose of radiation each day as compared to the standard external beam-based APBI treatment.
NCT06810830
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of two internet-based therapy approaches in improving psychological well-being and reducing distress among patients diagnosed with breast cancer. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: a 7-week internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (iCBT) program or a 3-session internet-based Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Flash Technique (iEMDR-FT) within a week. Both interventions will be delivered online in a group format under the guidance of experienced therapists. Participants' mental health status-including anxiety, depression, traumatic stress, fear of cancer recurrence, and overall quality of life-will be assessed before the intervention, immediately after completion, and again at a 3-month follow-up. The results of this study are expected to provide valuable insights into how digital psychotherapy methods can help breast cancer patients cope with emotional challenges during their treatment. The findings will also inform the development of future online psychosocial support models in oncology.
NCT06374745
The primary objective of the investigators is to develop an integrated algorithm for surgical treatment of chronic lymphedema after breast cancer surgery. This will be achieved by retrospectively analysing a subgroup of patients who had breast cancer-related surgery prior to lymphedema.
NCT03981263
Despite improvements in surgical techniques, approximately 30% of mastectomies are still performed. Definitively or temporarily, one of the alternatives to restore a volume in the bra is the external breast prosthesis. The main objective is to evaluate whether the "custom-made" MEAVANTI prosthesis improves the quality of life of patients who have had a mastectomy compared to the external standard prosthesis.
