NCT00066690
RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast tumor cells. Ovarian function suppression combined with hormone therapy using tamoxifen or exemestane may fight breast cancer by reducing the production of estrogen. It is not yet known whether suppression of ovarian function plus either tamoxifen or exemestane is more effective than tamoxifen alone in preventing the recurrence of hormone-responsive breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial studies ovarian suppression with either tamoxifen or exemestane to see how well they work compared to tamoxifen alone in treating premenopausal women who have undergone surgery for hormone-responsive breast cancer.
NCT01984138
This study is investigating whether breast cancer patients who experience vaginal dryness while on anti-estrogen treatment could benefit from either vaginal estrogen or from a vaginal moisturizer called Replens.
NCT02668666
This is a non-randomized, open-label, single-arm, multicenter, phase II study of palbociclib in combination with tamoxifen in women with HR(+)/HER2(-) advanced breast cancer who have not received prior systemic anticancer therapies for their advanced/metastatic disease.
NCT01992952
This is a two stage study, with an initial dose escalation phase I study and subsequent double blind randomised phase II controlled trial. Eligible patients are post-menopausal women with metastatic ER+ breast cancer not suitable for surgical resection. Patients should be suitable for endocrine treatment, but have received no more than 3 previous lines of endocrine treatment and up to 1 line of chemotherapy for metastatic disease. They will also have had progressive disease during treatment with an aromatase inhibitor. Following the dose-escalation in stage 1, patients will be randomised to receive fulvestrant plus either placebo or 480mg (or maximum tolerated dose) of AZD5363 oral capsules or tablets taken once daily. Patients will receive fulvestrant in combination with either placebo or AZD5363 until disease progression. Patients may continue to receive fulvestrant and AZD5363/placebo treatment even after the last trial visit.
NCT01996046
This study will evaluate baseline uptake on a FDG PET/CT scan in patients with breast cancer that has spread to the bones. A repeat FDG PET/CT scan will be done 4 weeks after the start of new breast cancer hormone treatment and again at 12 weeks after treatment start. The baseline uptake and change in uptake after the repeat scans will be compared to clinical long term outcomes such as time to progression and overall survival. In addition the uptake will be compared to the incidence of skeletal related events that are common occurrences in patients with cancer that has spread to the bones.
NCT02409316
In this study, positron emission tomography (PET/CT) imaging will be used to evaluate estrogen receptor (ER) activity in sites of metastatic disease using the investigational radiotracer \[18F\]fluoroestradiol (FES).
NCT04727632
This protocol is a companion imaging study that will add FES-PET/CT imaging to the FORESEE trial at HCI. This study will establish the feasibility of using FES-PET/CT imaging to guide therapeutic decision making for functional precision oncology trials. The unique ability of FES-PET/CT to show absence of functional estrogen receptors throughout the entire body may improve confidence among research oncologists that an ER+ metastatic breast cancer patient is truly refractory to hormonal therapies which is a critical determination in the study design of the FORESEE trial.
NCT02823262
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate a decision aid to help women aged 70 and older decide on treatment for their breast cancer.
NCT02820961
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of exemestane on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of entinostat and to determine the effect of entinostat on the PK of exemestane in patients with locally recurrent or metastatic estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. Additionally, this study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of entinostat in combination with exemestane, and assess the effectiveness of entinostat in combination with exemestane in terms of best overall response and overall survival.
NCT01219699
This is a first-in-man trial, in which BYL719 will be administered to adult patients with advanced solid tumors, whose tumors have an alteration of the PIK3CA gene and whose disease has progressed despite standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy exists. A combination of BYL719 with fulvestrant will also be investigated in post-menopausal patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose tumors have an alteration of the PIK3CA gene. The single agent MTD dose expansion cohort and the fulvestrant combination MTD dose expansion cohort will also include ER+/HER2- breast cancer patients whose tumors have the wild type PIK3CA gene
NCT02414776
To determine the safety and tolerability of orally administered hydroxychloroquine with hormonal therapy. To assess the response rate of hydroxychloroquine in combination with hormonal therapy.
NCT02000375
A phase II non randomized study evaluating the role of Androgen Receptors as Targets for therapy of pre-treated postmenopausal patients with ER/PgR-negative/AR-positive or ER and/or PgR-positive/AR-positive metastatic breast cancer. Study Design: Multicentric, Open-label not randomized trial. Description of Study Treatment: Daily oral administration of DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) at the dosage of 100 mg/die in combination with a daily oral administration of anastrozole at dosage of 1 mg/die or letrozole at the dosage of 2.5 mg/die or exemestane at the dosage of 25 mg/die without interruption until discontinuation for progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity or discontinuation/withdrawal of participants from study treatment. Number of Subjects: 12 patients per group in the first step; if the number of responders is greater or equal to 2, recruitment will continue up to a total of 35 patients (per group). For the biological part, we will evaluate: 1. Correlation between AR expression and clinical and biological features (tumor size, nodal status, histotype, grading, proliferative index, ER, PgR, HER2) 2. Evaluation of AR expression on primitive and/or metastatic site in the two distinct populations of patients: ER/PgR- negative/ARpositive and ER-positive and/or PgR-positive/AR-positive 3. Evaluation of ER, PgR, HER2 expression on tumor cells of metastatic site (when it is possible) and comparison with the same features of primitive tumor. 4. CTCs analysis in term of molecular characteristics (gene expression and mutations) and functionality (vitality and tumorigenicity). 5. Prognostic and predictive role of Circulating Tumor Cells (CTC) evaluated at baseline before study treatment and at the moment of discontinuation of treatment.
