NCT05012176
This clinical trial evaluates the use of an Episodic Future thinking Intervention to promote weight loss in breast cancer survivors. Obesity is associated with multiple negative health sequelae in breast cancer survivors. This includes an increased risk of cancer recurrence and mortality, multiple quality of life issues, and increased risk of co-morbidities. Delay Discounting is a behavioral health economic target that refers to the "discounting" of a larger benefit in the future for a smaller, more immediate reward in the present. A high delay discounting rate is correlated with poor dietary choices and sedentary lifestyle. Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) simulates positive events that may occur in one's future, engaging the science of prospection. EFT decreases delay discounting rate, resulting in healthier diet choices and weight reduction. However, valuation of the future may impact cancer survivors differently due to adjusted mortality perception and cancer-related stress. This study will determine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of remotely delivered (smartphone application) EFT as a behavioral intervention for weight loss in breast cancer survivors. Implementation of EFT as a complementary approach to standard lifestyle interventions could lead to improvement in weight loss, food choice, and quality of life, thereby positively impacting overall health and longevity in cancer survivors.
NCT05837169
The diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer (BC) can drastically affect the quality of life of patients with this disease by causing symptoms of vasomotor disorders, insomnia, depression and anxiety. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a program dedicated to fostering complete awareness in the present in order to accept the moment, thereby reducing stress. Previous studies have shown that MBSR benefits patients with chronic conditions such as mood disorders and chronic pain, as well as patients with BC. However, its usefulness in Mexican patients has not been previously studied.
NCT06202118
A unique approach for cancer treatment employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device for the treatment of newly diagnosed or Recurrent Breast Carcinoma in frail or elderly patients.
NCT05837533
Both in Mexico and in the world, breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. It is estimated that in 2020, 28.2% of the new cancer cases reported in our country correspond to breast cancer, which translates to 30,000 new cases. In addition, it is relevant to mention that approximately 12% of Mexican patients are diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer and it is estimated that 20-30% of women with early stage cancer will have a distant recurrence of the disease. Thus, about 40% of patients will find themselves in a metastatic stage at some point in their breast cancer journey. Various studies, including Mexico, report that only half of patients with metastatic breast cancer are aware that their disease is not curable, 31% say they are not sure, and 17% think it is curable. Likewise, 58% considered that they did not have enough knowledge to actively participate in conversations about their therapeutic options, which means that 40% reported difficulty talking about treatments with their doctors. This has shown that there are suboptimal levels of knowledge information on curability, treatment objectives and prognosis of their condition in patients with metastatic breast cancer. This lack of understanding is alarming given that a general understanding of the disease is crucial for informed decision making and adherence to cancer treatment. Due to these alarming results, we seek to recruit women ≥18 years of age who are candidates to start first- or second-line treatment for de novo or recurrent metastatic breast cancer from various hospital centers in the country with public and private coverage, including Hospital Zambrano Hellion TecSalud as coordinating center in Nuevo León. The objective will be to evaluate whether a systematized communication model for patients with metastatic breast cancer allows increasing knowledge about the non-curative nature of treatment, compared to usual care.
NCT06741540
Depression and anxiety are associated with higher incidence of tumors, cancer-specific mortality, and all-cause mortality. Compared with patients with other types of cancer, breast cancer patients often accompany physical damage, changes in physiological status, decline in quality of life, sensitivity in interpersonal relationships, and side effects of drug treatment during the occurrence, development, and treatment of cancer, leading to long-term chronic mental stress. The prevalence of depression and anxiety in early-stage breast cancer patients in China is as high as 44.1% and 35.2%, respectively. A meta-analysis based on 282,203 breast cancer patients suggests that depression is related to breast cancer-specific mortality, and patients with breast cancer and depression have a poorer prognosis. Intervention in response to stressors may improve psychological and physiological adaptation processes and even benefit quality of life and clinical health outcomes. More and more randomized controlled trials focus on improving the quality of life and adverse reactions of cancer patients after stress management, but there are few reports on the direct improvement of anti-tumor efficacy. Therefore, we plan to conduct a small sample, exploratory, randomized controlled study to clarify the impact of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) intervention on the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients with depressive symptoms. Newly diagnosed breast cancer patients will be assessed for emotions by mental health professionals, with a PHQ9 score of 5-14 and ≥ 5 symptoms considered positive, combined with enrollment criteria for screening. Patients who meet the enrollment criteria will be randomly divided into the control group (i.e., supportive psychotherapy group) and the experimental group (i.e., tDCS + supportive psychotherapy group). The primary study endpoint is the objective remission rate (ORR) of neoadjuvant treatment. This study aims to improve the depressive state of breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy through physical therapy (tDCS) and to clarify whether there is a correlation between emotional intervention and neoadjuvant efficacy.

NCT06803381
Patients with cancer are at high risk of denutrition, in France 39% of these patients suffer of malnutrition. This can affect the immunity, the mental balance and impact the treatment response and the quality of life. Cancer treatments cause many side effects related to food intake as well as sensory alteration, important factor contributing to reduced appetite and inadequate food intake to cancer patients. SOMEST'ALIM2 is a prospective, non-randomized, monocentric, multisite study that aims to evaluate the appreciation of patients with different types of cancer (digestive, gynecological, breast, ear, nose and throat (ENT) or lung) of two different food versions (sweet and salty), in standard and enhanced version. Patients must be under treatment from at least two months, and before food testing their sensory capacity and quantity and the quality of their saliva will be tested. They will also be asked to answer to different questionnaires: socio-demographics, appreciation of food samples, self-assessment of oral symptoms and sensory perceptions, MD, Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ-C30) and food quality of life questionnaire. In a context of sensory alterations patients should appreciate more the enhanced food versions. Patients perception of food will be evaluated using a visual analogue scale and results will be correlated with saliva characteristics, subjective sensory perceptions and oral symptoms.
NCT05178498
This study evaluates the association of dietary inflammatory potential with breast cancer risk. Information collected in this study may help doctors to identify modifiable risk factors, screen high risk patients early, improve prevention strategies, and provide timely intervention for early therapeutic management as needed.

NCT06489665
Conventional mammography, breast sonography and breast MRI have specific weaknesses. In particular, mammography has a low sensitivity for the detection of mammary carcinoma in patients with a dense breast. Phase contrast mammography could help to overcome some of these limitations. Observational study.
NCT06592053
Chronic post-mastectomy pain (CPMP) is a significant issue affecting many women after mastectomy. Factors like age, treatment type, and pre-surgery pain can increase the risk of developing this condition. By evaluating these factors, CPMP can be prevented more successfully and treatment strategies can be developed. This study aims to investigate the factors contributing to CPMP and contribute to the existing literature on this important topic.
NCT03333915

NCT03513614
RATIONALE: The use of tailored axillary dissection as a tailored procedure will avoid surgical overtreatment by selectively removing the lymph nodes that are affected by the cancer, thereby sparing many women the unnecessary complications of a radical surgery, providing a better quality of life while keeping the same efficacy. PURPOSE: The phase III trial is evaluating the optimal treatment for breast cancer patients in terms of surgery and radiotherapy.
NCT06806072
Endocrine therapy is the mainstay of adjuvant therapy in premenopausal women with hormone receptive-positive (HR+) breast cancer as it has been demonstrated that it reduces long-term recurrences and increases survivial. However, this therapy, which suppresses estrogen production and estrogen-induced effects, is associated with the development of joint pain which can significantly reduce quality of life and lead to treatment discontinuation. The main question the study aims o answer is: Can balneotherapy (BT) alleviate muscle-skeletal pain (primary objective) derived from endocrine therapy and improve quality of life (secondary objective) in young women with HR+ breast cancer?
NCT04151368
Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) with immediate reconstruction is one of the standard of care surgical treatments of breast cancer (BC) and is used for risk reduction in patients with a high risk for BC. While this method shows satisfactory oncologic and good cosmetic outcomes, its drawbacks include compromise of the skin flap vascularization due to skin incision, nipple-areolar complex (NAC) malposition/distortion and visible scar on the breast. NSM also has technical challenges of dissecting and removing larger specimens through limited incisions and concerns regarding oncologic effectiveness due to difficulties in visualizing regions of the breast remote from the incision. To improve cosmetic outcomes after NSM, a modification of this technique using a surgical robotic system was recently described. In a limited number of studies, the robotic NSM (RNSM) with immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction (IPBR) was shown to be feasible and safe, as well as led to excellent cosmetic outcomes and patient satisfaction. There are limited number of centers in North America and none in Canada that offer RNSM-IPBR. The investigators hypothesize that RNSM-IPBR is a feasible and safe technique that can be utilized in our institution and that it can provide superior cosmetic outcomes with less morbidity and higher patient satisfaction compared to the traditional NSM-IPBR. The aim is to conduct a single-arm prospective study to investigate the safety and feasibility, as well as cosmetic, surgical complication and patient satisfaction parameters of NSM-IPBR performed in the University Health Network (UHN). This study will serve a foundation for potential introduction of a novel surgical approach in our institution and will make it available for treatment and prevention of breast cancer in Canadian women. The study will also serve as pilot data for future potential studies, including randomized-controlled trials (RCT) comparing RNSM with conventional NSM. As such, the study will further our approach to innovation in breast surgical oncology within Canada and North America.
NCT04872166
This is a multicenter, open label, nonrandomized, sequential dose escalation/dose ranging, multiple dose study designed to evaluate the safety, toxicity, and PK as well as preliminary efficacy of BTX-A51 alone and in combination with fulvestrant in subjects with advanced solid tumors. The study will be done in three phases, described below. Phase 1a (Dose Escalation Phase): The Phase 1a portion is designed to determine the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of orally administered BTX-A51. BTX-A51 will be administered once daily on a weekly schedule of 5 days on/2 days off. Dose escalation will proceed according to a modified 3+3 design. Each cycle will consist of 28 days (4 weeks), and the DLT observation period will be the first cycle (i.e., 28 days after initiation of dosing). A DLT may be observed in no more than 0 out of 3 or 1 out of 6 subjects who have completed the DLT observation period before the next cohort initiates accrual. Barring DLT, sequential dose escalation of BTX-A51 is planned with up to a total of 6 dose levels; on the basis of these an MTD will be identified. The MTD is defined as the highest dose level with a subject incidence of DLTs of 0 or 1 out of 6 during the first 28 days of study drug dosing. A minimum of 6 subjects needs to be treated at a dose level before this dose level can be deemed as the MTD. Phase 1b (Monotherapy Dose Ranging Phase): Dose expansion may begin when the RP2D has been determined. Up to 40 additional subjects at each of the 2 dose levels will be enrolled to evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy of BTX-A51 in subjects with estrogen receptor positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-), GATA3 mutant (mt) and wild-type (wt) metastatic breast cancer (mBC). Dosing in this phase of the study consists of the first cycle of therapy (i.e., 28 days). Phase 1c (Combination Safety Phase): The Phase 1c portion will evaluate the safety and tolerability of orally administered BTX-A51 at two dose levels combined with fulvestrant. The first combo cohort may be initiated after DEC review of the 6 subject lead-in phase of the high dose monotherapy cohort in Phase 1b. Dose escalation will proceed according to a 3+3 design. Each cycle will consist of 28 days (4 weeks), and the DLT observation period will be the first cycle (i.e., 28 days after initiation of dosing).
