This trial studies how well an imaging technique called magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopic imaging works in identifying breast cancer in women with benign or suspicious areas in the breast. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic tool used to investigate the location of tumors in different organs. Since radiological pictures do not have sufficient information for tumor grades, invasive procedure such as biopsy is performed on patients with breast cancers for diagnosis. Breast tissue contains water, fat, and chemicals known as metabolites. MR spectroscopic imaging may help to characterize the various breast metabolite steady state levels and identify the differences between necrosis and tumor recurrence, which is difficult using radiological procedures such as MRI.
NCT03682029
The primary purpose of this multi-centre, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind phase II study is to investigate if oral vitamin C may change the biology of low-risk myeloid malignancies; i.e., clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS), low-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML)-0/1 by reversing the epigenetic changes characteristic of these disease entities. The epigenetic regulator TET2 is the gene most often affected in CCUS. Preclinical studies have shown that active demethylation by the TET enzymes is dependent on vitamin C, and the investigators and collaborators have shown that plasma vitamin C levels are exceedingly low in hematological cancer patients but are easily corrected by oral vitamin C. This study is part of an array of EVITA studies aimed at clarifying whether the standard of care of patients with myeloid malignancies should be changed and oral vitamin C supplement added to the treatment recommendations.
