About This Study

The U-TRANS study was initiated by Gustave Roussy, which is its sponsor\*. It is part of the Interception Program and aims to reduce the consumption of ultra-processed foods in order to improve the overall quality of the diet among people at high risk of cancer (WCRF score ≤ 5, corresponding to low adherence to nutritional cancer prevention recommendations: eating a diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, fruit and fibre, and limiting ultra-processed foods, red meat, processed meats, sugary drinks and alcohol). It assesses the impact of a digital intervention (based on the use of the Open Food Facts app) as a complement to the nutritional education provided by the Interception program.

Design

Study type: Interventional Phases: Allocation: Randomized Intervention model: Factorial Primary purpose: Other Masking/blinding: None

Interventions / Regimen

  • Behavioral: educational workshop on nutrition + additional intervention on UPF tool and how to use it — Participants with WCRF score at baseline ≤ 5 will be randomized at 1:1 ratio between intervention group (educational workshop on nutrition + additional intervention on UPF tool and how to use it) and control group (educational workshop on nutrition only). Impact will be assessed at 12 weeks with the WCRF questionnaire.

Primary Outcomes

  • Proportion (%) of participants with at least 1-point improvement in the WCRF score (Week 12)

About This Study

The purpose the BRENAR pilot study is to assess acute post-surgical complications following mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction after neoadjuvant radiotherapy (NART). The investigators hypothesize that NART will avoid the negative effects of postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) on the capsule of an implant, or on the skin and underlying tissue of an autologous flap, and would therefore lead to better cosmetic results, better quality of life and less complications compared to PMRT. If this hypothesis is confirmed, NART would allow more patients to undergo an immediate reconstruction resulting in superior cosmetic results and quality of life. Furthermore, the use of RT in a neoadjuvant setting could potentially result in a shorter overall loco-regional treatment time from diagnosis to receiving the last locoregional treatment. However, this pilot study will mainly assess whether or not the post-surgical complications of breast reconstruction with NART are acceptable. Further study to investigate long term quality of life and oncologic follow-up results will be conducted after this pilot study, if complication rates are acceptable.

Design

Study type: Interventional Phases: Allocation: Intervention model: Single Group Primary purpose: Treatment Masking/blinding: None

Interventions / Regimen

  • Radiation: Neoadjuvant radiotherapy — The study examines the delivery NART. In case of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, RT will start 6-8 weeks after the last course of chemotherapy. A dose of 15 x 2.67 Gy 5 fractions per week, or a biologically equivalent dose will be applied. A mastectomy and a direct breast reconstruction will be performed, approximately 2-6 weeks after latest radiotherapy treatment. Breast reconstruction can be separated in the types of reconstruction, either reconstruction with a silicone implant or with only autologous tissue, of which the most common flap used is the Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flap.

Primary Outcomes

  • Acute post-surgical complication rate at 3 months following mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction after NART in the treatment of breast cancer. (3 months following mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction (latest intervention, being either autologous recosntruction or silicone implant))

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * In order to be eligible to participate in this study, a subject must meet all of the following criteria: * Females at least 18 years of age. * WHO performance scale ≤2 * Adequate communication and understanding skills of the Dutch language * Able to understand and sign Dutch written informed consent * Indication for mastectomy and a known indication for (adjuvant) radiotherapy of at least the chestwall. To obtain information on the indication for RT, before the mastectomy is performed, it may be necessary to perform a separate SNP and/or targeted axillary dissection prior to inclusion, i.e. * Stage III (cT3N1, cT0-2N2-3) or cN1 with more than 3 suspicious nodes at initial diagnosis * A positive SN/TAD\* pre- breast surgery in case of: * cT1-2N0 and less than 3 RF\*\* at initial diagnosis and cCR on imaging\*\*\* * cT3N0 and no risk factor at initial diagnosis * If the indication for radiotherapy is not yet clear, and is only indicated when there is a pathological lymph node present, a sentinel node procedure or targeted axillary dissection (TAD) will be performed first to check for the lymph node status. A sentinel node procedure (SNP) will be performed under general anesthesia in order to explore regional lymph nodes. For cT1-3N0 patients, it is known that about 25% has a positive axillary node after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (50);for patients with cT1-3N+ breast cancer, about 55-70% still have positive nodes after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, which is dependent of receptor status 29,30,31,32,33. Consequently, we may have to ask for informed consent 2-4 times more patients than we would need for this pilot study. * risk factors are: angio invasion, Grade III, Age ≤ 40 yrs, triple negative \*\*\* In patients with cT1-2N0 with at least 3 RF a tumour biopsy can be considered prior to surgery in case of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, since in case of no pCR the indication for RT is already set, and an SN or TAD prior to breast surgery is not required. Exclusion Criteria: * study: * Legal incapacity * Not able to understand and sign Dutch written informed consent * Previous history of breast cancer or another malignancy for which radiotherapy of the breast or axilla * Collagen synthesis disease * MRI absolute contraindications as defined by the Radiology Department * Age \< 18 year * Pregnant or lactating. * Smoking * BMI \> 35 kg/m2 * cT4 tumour (and skin sparing mastectomy not possible) * If NAC in cT1-2N0 and 3 RF: in triple negative or Her2 positive (with concern for under treatment of adjuvant therapy) and no tumor cells in preoperative biopsy\* * NB: If neoadjuvant chemotherapy is given, and if the indication for adjuvant systemic treatment is dependent on the presence or absence of a pathological complete response pCR (such as in patients with a triple negative or Her2 positive tumour), centres can choose A) to exclude these patients, or B) only to include these patients when a non-pCR is proven via a biopsy prior to the start of the RT. Earlier studies in partial breast RT showed that pCR rate of NART only, followed by surgery \< 6-8 weeks is very low in the general breast cancer population (17 of the 110), whilst it seems to be higher in patients with triple negative (6/8) and Her2 positive (1/1) (personal communication Sophie Bosma, trial on Preoperative Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation, PAPBI trial 34.

About This Study

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women worldwide. An important portion of the breast cancer survivors will face chronic pain complaints. These pain complaints do not only impact the patient's quality of life but also prevents resumption of activities, leading to huge economic costs. 30% of all breast cancer survivors with pain present with perceived injustice which has been conceptualized as a multidimensional appraisal process characterized by a tendency to interpret one's losses as severe and irreparable, to attribute blame to others for one's suffering and to experience a sense of unfairness. Perceived injustice is also associated with increased opioid prescription and use, urging the need for targeted interventions to diminish perceived injustice. Despite the fact that specific treatment plans for perceived injustice are not yet proven, pain neuroscience education (PNE) is proven to reassure and encourage towards activity. In order to obtain the targeted behavioural change, motivational interviewing (MI) is used as the communication process throughout PNE. A multi-centre, parallel, two-arm, investigator-blinded study with 4-weeks intervention and two years follow-up will be conducted in 156 BCS with PI and pain. These will be randomly assigned to the intervention or usual care group. The groups will receive 1 online session, an information leaflet and 3 live sessions of education spread over 4 weeks. Pain neuroscience education in combination with motivational interviewing will be given in the experimental group and biomedically-focused education to the control group. The primary scientific objective of the study is to examine whether perceived injustice-targeted PNE is superior to biomedically-focused pain education in reducing pain after 12 months in breast cancer survivors with perceived injustice and pain. The secondary objectives of the study are to examine whether perceived injustice-targeted PNE, compared to biomedically-focused pain education, results in improving health-related quality of life, reducing perceived injustice and opioid use after 24 months in breast cancer survivors with perceived injustice and pain, and to conduct a health-care cost analysis which will finally result in a recommendation concerning the use of perceived injustice-targeted PNE in breast cancer survivors with perceived injustice and pain.

Design

Study type: Interventional Phases: Allocation: Randomized Intervention model: Parallel Primary purpose: Treatment Masking/blinding: Double

Interventions / Regimen

  • Behavioral: Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) — PNE is a cognitive behavioural intervention, including educating patients that pain is an output product of the brain resulting from input from multiple central and peripheral nervous system processes and leading to threat perception. Transferring that knowledge to patients, allows them to understand, accept and effectively cope with their pain. In order to obtain the targeted behavioural change, motivational interviewing is used as the communication process throughout PNE.
  • Behavioral: Motivational Interviewing (MI) — Motivational interviewing is a directive, collaborative, patient-centered communication approach for eliciting and enhancing motivation for behaviour change by helping clients to resolve ambivalence and uncertainty.
  • Behavioral: Biomedically-focused education — The traditional biomedical-focused education programme explains patient's pain experience from a tissue (injured versus healthy tissue) and biomechanical perspective.

Primary Outcomes

  • Pain Outcome (T0: within the week before the randomisation and the start of the intervention)
  • Pain Outcome (T1: immediately after completing intervention)
  • Pain Outcome (T2: 6 months after therapy completion)
  • Pain Outcome (T3: 12 months after therapy completion)
  • Pain Outcome (T4: 24 months after therapy completion)

Transferring that knowledge to patients, allows them to understand, accept and effectively cope with their pain. In order to obtain the targeted behavioural change, motivational interviewing is used as the communication process throughout PNE.
  • Behavioral: Motivational Interviewing (MI) — Motivational interviewing is a directive, collaborative, patient-centered communication approach for eliciting and enhancing motivation for behaviour change by helping clients to resolve ambivalence and uncertainty.
  • Behavioral: Biomedically-focused education — The traditional biomedical-focused education programme explains patient's pain experience from a tissue (injured versus healthy tissue) and biomechanical perspective.

About This Study

Breast cancer patients often develop breast lymphedema after breast-conserving surgery and radiotherapy, causing swelling, pain, and heaviness that affect quality of life. This study compares two physical therapy approaches-Kinesio Taping and compression therapy-for relieving breast lymphedema. Kinesio Taping is an elastic medical tape applied to the breast skin to promote lymphatic drainage; compression therapy uses an adjustable pressure vest to reduce swelling through external pressure. The study will enroll 99 eligible postoperative breast cancer patients, randomly assigned to three groups: one receiving routine care, one receiving routine care plus Kinesio Taping, and one receiving routine care plus compression therapy, with a 6-week intervention period. Assessments will be conducted at baseline, immediately after intervention, and at 3 and 6 months post-intervention to compare changes in swelling, pain, and quality of life among the three groups. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Tangshan People's Hospital (LLKS), and all participants voluntarily participate with signed informed consent.

Design

Study type: Interventional Phases: Allocation: Randomized Intervention model: Parallel Primary purpose: Treatment Masking/blinding: Single

Interventions / Regimen

  • Other: Routine Care — Health education including explanation of breast lymphedema mechanisms and complications; breast and skin care instructions (cleaning with warm water and mild cleanser, avoiding irritants, wearing loose clothing, avoiding sun exposure for 6 months after radiotherapy); lifestyle guidance (high-protein, high-vitamin, low-fat diet, adequate sleep, proper positioning to promote lymphatic drainage); and rehabilitation exercises (range of motion exercises for the affected upper extremity, performed 1-2 times daily, 10-20 minutes per session, over a 6-week period).
  • Other: Kinesio Taping — Elastic therapeutic tape (KT TAPE, 25 cm × 5 cm pre-cut) applied to the affected breast. Prior to application, a 2 cm × 2 cm test tape is applied to the forearm for 24 hours to rule out allergy. The tape is cut into a fan shape with 4 tails, anchored below the clavicle, and applied diagonally around the breast area with no tension on the tails, covering the edematous area without overlapping. Each application is retained for 3 days, followed by 1 day of rest, repeated over a 6-week period. Participants are instructed on proper removal techniques (skin-pressing and rolling methods) to avoid skin damage.
  • Other: Compression Therapy — Adjustable compression vest made of medical-grade material with a modal inner layer, featuring adjustable Velcro straps on the affected side. Pressure is calibrated using a German precision pressure measurement device, with the sensor placed on the lower outer quadrant of the affected breast to maintain pressure at 18-21 mmHg. The vest is worn for 15-18 hours per day (daytime only, not at night) for 6 weeks. Participants are instructed to discontinue use immediately if they experience dyspnea or chest tightness.

Primary Outcomes

  • Lymphedema-Related Symptoms (VAS) (Baseline (T0), immediately post-intervention at 6 weeks (T1), 3 months post-intervention (T2), and 6 months post-intervention (T3))

About This Study

To support the development of the MELIORA digital app for the MELIORA main intervention, an initial pilot study (Data Collection Campaign, DCC) is being conducted with the three target participant groups: healthy women at increased risk of developing breast cancer (BC), BC patients, and BC survivors across the four intervention countries (Spain, Greece, Lithuania, Sweden). The planned sample size for each group is 156 healthy women at risk (defined as not meeting recommendations for a healthy lifestyle), 58 BC patients, and 86 BC survivors. Each participant is asked to test and evaluate a preliminary version of the MELIORA app over a 14-day period. The DCC takes place in the early stages of the project, as part of the intervention development phase, to inform the technical refinement and preliminary evaluation of the MELIORA digital app.

About This Study

This fully, powered efficacy RCT, the MIND diet for Breast Cancer Cognition (MIND-BC), will evaluate the MIND diet in a rigorous, highly controlled academic cancer center. We will recruit breast cancer survivors reporting CRCI with a MIND diet score \< 8, based on a previously devised 14-item diet questionnaire designed to detect inadequate diet with respect to brain health (scores range from 0 to 14, with lower scores indicating a less adequate diet).14 Breast cancer survivors will have recently completed adjuvant treatment (i.e., 6 months to three years previously), to ensure that perceived cognitive impairment is likely chronic and due to cancer. To achieve maximal effect, the study consists of two 12-week phases 1) intervention phase, 2) maintenance phase.

Design

Study type: Interventional Phases: Allocation: Randomized Intervention model: Parallel Primary purpose: Supportive Care Masking/blinding: None

Interventions / Regimen

  • Other: MIND Diet — a combination of the Mediterranean and DASH diets emphasizing consumption of high-nutrient, plant-based foods such as green leafy vegetables, nuts, berries, fish, and olive oil while limiting intake of foods high in saturated fat, pre-processed snacks, sugar, red and processed meat.
  • Other: Usual Diet — Check-in sessions for the usual diet arm will focus on general health (e.g., healthy hair, skin, eyesight). None of the topics will include dietary information for the usual diet arm.

Primary Outcomes

  • Efficacy of the MIND diet: Self-reported cognition (At 12 weeks and 3 months)

About This Study

This study aims to provide information about the genomics of your breast cancer which your oncologist can use to enhance the treatment of your disease possibly enabling more targeted and personalised therapy.This study will carry out TruSight Oncology Comprehensive (TSOComprehensive) testing on breast cancer tumour tissue that was collected at the time of your breast cancer diagnosis or during your breast surgery or if you have brain metastasis and you have had a biopsy for this. The TruSight Oncology Comprehensive assay is a next-generation sequencing (NGS) test used to analyse cancer-related genomic changes in patients, offering a comprehensive view of potential mutations and other alterations that can impact treatment decisions. The TruSight Oncology Comprehensive assay is CE-IVD marked for use in Europe, meaning that it complies with the relevant EU regulation, for comprehensive genomic profiling for different types of cancer. It analyses 523 cancer-relevant genes from both DNA and RNA to identify variations. It will also look for changes and mutations which may affect cell growth and stability. By identifying relevant mutations and biomarkers, the assay can help oncologists select the most appropriate treatment strategies with the aim of improving patient outcomes.

Design

Study type: Interventional Phases: Allocation: Intervention model: Single Group Primary purpose: Diagnostic Masking/blinding: None

Interventions / Regimen

  • Diagnostic Test: TSO500 Assay — Utilisation of TSO500 assay to identify somatic, clinically actionable somatic in the primary breast tumour and, where relevant, brain metastatic tumour to the treating physician to inform clinical management of participating patients.

Primary Outcomes

  • Proportion of enrolled patients with at least one clinically actionable mutation identified by PRISM diagnostics compared with standard-of-care diagnostics. (At the time of therapeutic decision following diagnostic assessment (up to 6 weeks from enrollment).)

About This Study

The diagnosis of breast cancer in a woman can cause major psychological trauma with many destructive effects in all areas of life. Dealing with this profound distress is often difficult, sometimes poorly defined between different professionals (psychiatrists, psychologists, psychotherapists, proponents of alternative therapies), leading to highly variable and difficult-to-measure results. Since the first French cancer plan (2003/2007), facilities offering cancer care have been legally required to have a notification and support system in place. This consists of offering patients a range of supportive care throughout their cancer treatment (psychotherapy, physical activities, dietetics, pain management, etc.). In recent years, logotherapy has been offered as part of psychological care. Logotherapy is a form of psychotherapy based on meaning, which has been offered for many years and aims to help patients create or discover meaning in their lives. Meaning serves as motivation to continue living despite illness by placing this ordeal in the context of existence. Suffering can thus be transformed into opportunity. The use of logotherapy gives the suffering person the ability to take an active part in their treatment and helps them to mobilize their personal resources to keep the disease at bay, stabilize it, or cure it. Several studies conducted on women with breast or gynecological cancer have shown that logotherapy can reduce the symptoms of traumatic stress and increase their ability to find meaning in their lives. However, these studies have certain limitations because they are not randomized. In order to evaluate the short- and medium-term benefits of logotherapy in patients diagnosed with primary breast cancer, we propose a prospective, comparative, randomized study.

Design

Study type: Interventional Phases: Allocation: Randomized Intervention model: Parallel Primary purpose: Supportive Care Masking/blinding: None

Interventions / Regimen

  • Other: Support to the patient including logotherapy — Logotherapy consists of four individual sessions conducted by a nurse who is specialized and certified in logotherapy, at a rate of one session every two weeks, lasting approximately 60 minutes.
  • Other: Support to the patient without logotherapy — Supportive care offered as part of the patient notification process following the diagnosis of breast cancer.

Primary Outcomes

  • Anxiety (10 weeks)
  • Depression (10 weeks)
