Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

To study the effects of green coffee supplement on leptin, adiponectin, ghrelin, anthropometric measurements, lipid profile in breast cancer survivors.50 breast cancer survivors who their treatment is over and referred to follow breast cancer clinic with will be randomly allocated to receive placebos or 2 capsules green coffe for 12 weeks; both groups will be advised to adherence the investigators' diet and exercise program too. At the first and the end of the intervention, leptin, adiponectin, ghrelin, anthropometric measurements, lipid profile will be assessed and compared between groups.

In Canada, approximately 68 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every day. Chemotherapy-related cognitive changes (CRCC) are reported by up to 75% of breast cancer survivors during treatment and symptoms persist in 35% of survivors after treatment. Women report that CRCC negatively impacts their everyday functioning and substantially reduces their overall quality of life. Effective clinical interventions to manage CRCC are elusive. As a result, breast cancer survivors typically receive little to no advice on how to prevent or manage CRCC. Aerobic exercise is a type of physical activity that uses large muscle groups, is rhythmic in nature, and can be sustained for at least 10 minutes (e.g., walking, jogging, indoor cycling). It has been associated with improved quality of life in breast cancer survivors. It also holds great promise as an intervention to prevent or mitigate CRCC. However, there is limited evidence from experimental studies to confirm this. Therefore, the primary aim of this trial is to evaluate the impact of a supervised aerobic exercise intervention on CRCC in women diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer. Recruited women will be randomized into one of two groups: (1) aerobic exercise during chemotherapy, or (2) usual care during chemotherapy and the aerobic exercise post-chemotherapy (i.e., wait-list control group). This study will test several novel hypotheses, including whether exercise during chemotherapy can prevent and/or mitigate CRCC and its negative impact on quality of life among women with breast cancer, and whether the timing of the exercise intervention matters (i.e., exercise during versus after chemotherapy). The results of this study aim to address the concerns of women affected by CRCC who are currently lacking available evidence-based treatment options, as well as oncology care providers' need to have options to recommend to their patients to prevent or manage CRCC.

Role of Oncoplastic Breast Surgery In Breast Cancer Treatement

This is a phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of the pre-operative use of letrozole plus PD 0332991 (combination therapy)

This study is a Phase 1 and pharmacologic open-label dose-escalation trial using a "3+3" design. Successive cohorts of three or more patients will be treated at escalating doses until a maximum tolerated dose is identified. Once the maximum tolerated dose is identified, an Expansion Cohort will be enrolled at that dose to further characterize safety and pharmacologic endpoints. Additional arms will be enrolled to explore the combination of MM-302 with trastuzumab or trastuzumab plus cyclophosphamide in patients with advanced HER2 positive breast cancer.

Observational survey aiming to evaluate the tolerability of Aromasin and the ways in which it is used in clinical practice in France (as adjuvant endocrine therapy).

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of the combined therapy Bevacizumab, trastuzumab and paclitaxel in neo-adjuvant therapy in patients with breast cancer HER 2+ followed by surgery and adjuvant therapy (Cyclophosphamide, Trastuzumab and Doxorubicin liposomal).

By doing this study, researchers hope to learn the effectiveness of the combination of Lapatinib and RAD-001 for treating patients who have progressed on previous therapies.

The purpose of this study is to assess the response of docetaxel and gemcitabine in the neoadjuvant setting in women with locally advanced breast cancer.

This single arm, prospective, observational study will assess the correlation between the time from start of chemotherapy to the start of Avastin (bevacizumab) treatment with progression-free survival in patients with previously untreated metastatic breast cancer. Patients will be followed for up to 12 months after progressive disease occurs.
