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.
This is a proof-of-concept, single-center, non-randomized, open-label, phase 1b/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ConvitVax, a simple, low cost (of manufacture), personalized, potentially safe and effective breast cancer vaccine made of three components: autologous tumor cells homogenate obtained from 0.3 g of tumor tissue, 0.0625 mg of bacillus Calmette-Guérin Danish strain 1331 (BCG D1331), and 0.02% of formalin, for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) except for brain metastases, leptomeningeal carcinomatosis, and/or spinal cord compression. The primary aim is to determine the overall safety and tolerability of ConvitVax when administered via an intradermal (id) injection as monotherapy in female patients with MBC who have failed at least one line of therapy. This study will give access to an immunotherapy, to underprivileged women with MBC, particularly in poor developing countries where patients may not have the opportunity to be treated with modern therapies or, in many cases, standard of care treatments. Breast cancer patients at Instituto de Oncología "Dr. Luis Razetti" (Oncological Institute "Dr. Luis Razetti") (IOLR) who meet the eligibility criteria will be consented and asked to have a biopsy of the primary tumor. This fragment will be divided for the preparation of each dose of the vaccine. A total of 40 patients with confirmed MBC will be treated with ConvitVax. The final volume per dose of the vaccine is 0.5 ml, with a total of 4 doses. ConvitVax will be applied via id injection with a 2-week interval between each dose. Patients will be monitored for disease recurrence and survival, for a period of 1 year after initiating the treatment.
In Italy, 50% of new breast cancer (BC) diagnosis occur in female of working age. Although return to work (RTW) is strongly desired by BC patients, cancer survivors are more likely to be unemployed than healthy individuals. Moreover, work difficulties may hindrance this process. Since 2018, the investigators have planned a local social-healthcare pathway which provides a multidisciplinary vocational rehabilitation intervention with the aim to help cancer survivors in their RTW process. To date, the feasibility of the multidisciplinary vocational rehabilitation interventions has not been verified for BC patients.
Phase III, prospective, multi-center, randomized, open label, parallel group, study in patients with HER2-negative breast cancer with residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy with 1:1 allocation to: * Arm A: Sacituzumab govitecan (days 1, 8 q3w for eight cycles); * Arm B: treatment of physician´s choice (TPC, defined as capecitabine or platinum-based chemotherapy for eight cycles or observation. Treatment in either arm will be given for eight cycles. In patients with HR-positive breast cancer, endocrine-based therapy, which includes the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors, will be administered according to local guidelines. The start of endocrine therapy will be at the discretion of the investigator; however, it will be encouraged to start after surgery/radiotherapy in patients without additional cytotoxic agents. Adjuvant pembrolizumab can be given until the completion of radiotherapy before randomization. Within the study the use of pembrolizumab in patients with TNBC who received pembrolizumab as neoadjuvant therapy is allowed as monotherapy in the TPC arm, according to the approval of pembrolizumab in this setting.
This study aims to establish a holistic framework for continuous cancer survival surveillance in Russian regions with high-quality population-based cancer registry data. The data from the population-based cancer registries of the Northwestern regions of Russia will be used to assess net and cause-specific survival trends.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety, tolerability, Pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary efficacy of ARV-471 as monotherapy in Japanese participants with ER+/HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (mBC).
This prospective, multicenter, non-randomized controlled study aims to evaluate bone pain associated with prophylactic use of long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSFs) in patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy with a moderate-to-high risk of febrile neutropenia (FN). A total of 132 patients with breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy will be enrolled at 7 study centers in China. According to the long-acting G-CSF selected by the treating physician in routine clinical practice, patients will be included in either the Telpegfilgrastim group or the non-Telpegfilgrastim group. Telpegfilgrastim is administered as a fixed 2 mg subcutaneous dose 24 hours after chemotherapy. Patients in the non-Telpegfilgrastim group receive another approved long-acting G-CSF according to the physician's clinical decision. The study will assess the incidence and duration of bone pain during the first chemotherapy cycle as the primary outcome. Bone pain during subsequent chemotherapy cycles, use of treatment for bone pain, and dose reduction or switching of long-acting G-CSF will also be evaluated. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) and other laboratory parameters will be monitored during treatment to explore the relationship between neutrophil changes and bone pain.
Breast cancer remains the most common cancer among women and a major cause of death despite advances in screening and treatment. Current screening programs are not personalized and are experiencing declining participation. A promising strategy for breast cancer control would be to implement risk-based prevention and early screening, targeting individuals at high risk of developing breast cancer, in order to improve chances of cure and reduce the need for more intensive treatments. The MyPeBS study was designed to assess whether personalized breast cancer screening (based on an individual's risk of developing breast cancer) is as effective as, or more effective than, current standard screening. Lifestyle interventions involving changes in diet or physical activity, for example, have been shown to be effective in reducing the risk of developing breast cancer, whether low or high. The MyPeBS study evaluates personalized screening but offers limited information on breast cancer prevention. MyPREV is a project that aims to assess the feasibility and impact of a personalized online program on breast cancer risk reduction measures. This program is offered to women at high risk of developing breast cancer as part of the European MyPeBS screening study. The main objective is to evaluate adherence to a personalized, online breast cancer prevention program focused on lifestyle and its acceptance among women at high or very high risk of developing cancer who participated in the MyPeBS study.
The investigator's developed a digital LDT to predict invasive breast cancer (IBC) recurrence within 6 years by combining histologic features extracted from an H\&E image of the patients IBC with clinical data including the patients age, tumor size, stage and number of positive lymph nodes. The development of an artificial-intelligent (AI)-grade provides not only an objective, quantitative advancement of classical breast cancer grading but also improves upon the accuracy and utility of clinical risk. The investigator's sought to understand how such a PreciseDx Breast would be used in clinical practice post-surgical resection for women with early-stage IBC.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide and lymphedema is one of its most significant complications. Breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) may develop shortly after treatment or even years later, causing physical and psychological burden, functional impairment, and reduced quality of life. Complete decongestive therapy (CDT), which includes manual lymph drainage (MLD), compression, skin care, and exercise, is the standard approach. Intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) has been proposed as an additional option, and current consensus reports emphasize the need for studies evaluating IPC in combination with MLD. Previous studies comparing IPC and MLD, either alone or in combination, have shown inconsistent results. Some reported no significant difference between treatment groups, while others suggested additional benefits of IPC, particularly in reducing limb heaviness and tension. However, there is still insufficient evidence to clarify the exact role of IPC within CDT. The aim of this study is to investigate the acute effects of using IPC instead of MLD, or in combination with MLD, on arm circumference, arm volume, shoulder range of motion, and quality of life in patients with BCRL.
This is a study of DP303c in patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if tinengotinib combined with fulvestrant works to treat patients with HR-Positive and HER-2-Negative or low-expressing advanced breast cancer. It will also learn about the safety of combination therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does tinengotinib combined with fulvestrant reduce the tumor burden in participants? 2. What medical problems do participants have when taking the combination therapy? Participants will: Take tinengotinib and fulvestrant to find the optimal dose of tinengotinib for the combination therapy in Part A. In Part B, will take tinengotinib at the optimal dose with fulvestrant or tinengotinib alone to see if the combination therapy works better than tinengotinib monotherapy.
Nausea and vomiting (feeling sick to your stomach and throwing up) are two of the most common unpleasant side effects of chemotherapy agents (drugs specifically used to treat cancer) that will be used for cancer treatment. If nausea and vomiting are not controlled, they could lead to dehydration, poor nutrition and a longer time in the hospital. Nausea and vomiting usually occur in response to conditions that affect the gut and the vomiting center, which is an area in the brain. Netupitant and palonosetron are drugs that are thought to block the activation of certain types of chemicals in these areas (brain and gut) and, therefore, to prevent or reduce the severity of nausea and vomiting. Nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy is classified into two patterns based on the time of onset or start. Acute nausea and vomiting start within 24 hours of chemotherapy administration. Delayed nausea and vomiting starts approximately 2-5 days after chemotherapy administration. Regardless of when the nausea and vomiting start, these symptoms are usually treated with not just one drug, but a combination of drugs. In this study you will receive the study drug, which is a fixed combination of netupitant and palonosetron. This is an open label single arm study. The main purpose of this study or clinical trial is to learn more about the effect (how well it works) of the fixed combination of netupitant and palonosetron (NEPA) in preventing nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy in Hong Kong oncology patients receiving (neo)-adjuvant chemotherapy treatment consists of adriamycin and cyclophosphamide for breast cancer.
The goal of this study is to evaluate 5 days vs. 9 days of whole breast radiation.
Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive type of breast cancer with limited treatment options. Research suggests that using High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to destroy the tumor and/or PD-1 inhibitor drugs to activate the immune system before starting chemotherapy may improve treatment effectiveness. This study aims to investigate this new approach. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of using HIFU, with or without a PD-1 inhibitor (Sintilimab), before and during combination chemotherapy in patients with early-stage TNBC. The primary goal is to determine if this strategy can increase the rate of pathological complete response (pCR). Study Design: This is a single-center, Phase II clinical study. Approximately 40 participants with Stage II-III TNBC will be enrolled and assigned to one of two groups (cohorts) without randomization: Cohort A: Receives HIFU treatment. Two weeks later, begins standard chemotherapy (Abraxane and carboplatin) combined with the PD-1 inhibitor Sintilimab for 6 cycles. Cohort B: Receives HIFU treatment combined with a single dose of the PD-1 inhibitor Sintilimab. Two weeks later, begins the same 6 cycles of chemotherapy (Abraxane and carboplatin) combined with Sintilimab. Main Measures: The primary measure is the rate of pathological complete response (pCR), defined as the absence of invasive cancer in the breast and lymph nodes after surgery following the completion of neoadjuvant therapy. Other important measures include: The ability of the treatment to activate the immune system (measured by changes in CD8+ T cells or IFN-γ). The percentage of patients whose tumors shrink significantly (Objective Response Rate). How long patients live without their cancer getting worse (Event-Free Survival). The rate of patients who can undergo breast-conserving surgery. The frequency and severity of side effects.
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, Phase Ib/II clinical trial of CVL237 tablets in combination with serplulimab injection for the treatment of advanced solid tumors with PTEN loss or low expression
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of different doses of specially prepared T cells collected from the blood. The investigators want to find a safe dose of these modified T cells for patients who have metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the drug Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) reduces disease progression when used as a first-line treatment in adults with advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have not received prior treatments in the advanced setting. It will also look at whether the effectiveness of the drug differs between TNBC adults with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) subtypes and those with non-HRD subtypes. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Will patients with advanced TNBC who haven't received prior treatment in the advanced setting respond better (i.e., slowed disease progression) when given SG as a first-line treatment? * Does the overall response rate of SG differ between HRD vs non-HRD advanced TNBC patients without prior treatment in the advanced setting? Participants will: * Be given drug SG on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycle(s) * Will continue (repeat) 21-day cycles until disease progression or voluntary withdrawal * Visit the clinic for treatments on days 1 and 8 * Have long-term follow-up every 12 weeks via phone or in-clinic
The primary purpose of this study is to determine what proportion of participants will achieve complete pathological response with epirubicin+ cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel +carboplatin. This will also examine the potential of using signals in the blood (biomarkers) to identify resistance to chemotherapy in Nigerian women with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). All enrollment to this trial will occur at sites in Nigeria. University of Chicago is serving as coordinating center and will be involved in data analysis.
