Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

To explore the feasibility of target biopsy of carbon nanoparticles labelled lymph node after neoadjuvant systemic therapy for cN+ breast cancer, and evaluate whether it can accurately predict axillary lymph node status after neoadjuvant systemic therapy.

To determine the feasibility of cryotherapy for B3 fibroepithelial lesions

An intervention program involving education, guidance, counseling, case management and surveillance based on the Health Belief Model will be implemented on women with high risk of breast cancer. The impact of the breast cancer risk reduction program on participation in breast cancer screenings, health beliefs (health motivation, sensitivity, fear of breast cancer) and behaviors (physical activity, nutrition, health responsibility, genetic counseling) will be evaluated in the study.

An open-label, single center study with 99mTc-ADAPT6 SPECT and biopsies of primary tumour and metastatic lymph nodes in breast cancer patients, where the primary endpoint of the study is to find out the correlation between the HER2 expression measured by 99mTc-ADAPT6 SPECT and standard histopathology from relevant tumor and lymph node biopsies.

Patients undergone to axillary dissection during breast surgery with a PECS I, II block will be randomized to receive either a serratus plane continuous local anesthetic infusion through a multiple hole catheter or nothing. Both groups will receive a patient controlled analgesia with morphine.

To study a single dose of preoperative partial radiotherapy to a low-risk breast tumour. The radiotherapy will be goven 3 months before surgery.

to determine the feasibility of a novel technique of localization of clipped LN post neoadjuvant chemotherapy

The purpose of this study is to determine if NIF fluoresent imaging is an effctive approch to detect the margine of the breast tumoral tissue.

The purpose of this study is to compare the association between image and certain molecular markers with complete response in patients with locally advanced breast cancer, treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy composed of Bevacizumab, Docetaxel and Doxorubicin.

Bone is the most common site of spread of breast cancer and bone metastases will occur in roughly 70% of women with advanced disease. These patients are at risk of developing bone complications that cause significant impact on both patient morbidity and mortality. Close to two-thirds of women with bone metastases will go on to develop at least one of these complications, termed a skeletal related event (SRE), defined as 1) pathological fractures, 2) pain requiring radiation or surgical intervention, 3)spinal cord compression, and 4) hypercalcemia. In addition to SREs, most breast cancer patients with bone metastases have some degree of pain associated with their disease. Understandably these factors negatively impact their quality of life. Furthermore, the development of an SRE in this population has been shown to be associated with shorter overall survival. Prevention or delay in onset of these complications is therefore an important therapeutic goal.
