Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

To describe patient demographics, clinical characteristics, treatment patterns and clinical outcomes of adult female patients who have received palbociclib combination treatments as first line therapy, regardless of combination partner and labelled use in real world settings across Latin America.

The purpose of this clinical study is to describe the patient population, breast cancer treatment, and breast cancer treatment results of adult female patients who have received palbociclib combination treatments for advanced or metastatic breast cancer in India. There are two groups of patients this study will describe. The first group of patients will have received palbociclib in combination with aromatase inhibitor (as prescribed by the Physician) for the treatment of postmenopausal women with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer as initial endocrine-based therapy for their metastatic disease. The second group of patients will have received palbociclib for the treatment of hormone receptor HR+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer in combination with fulvestrant in women with disease progression following endocrine therapy.

Anti-adhesive effect and Safety of a mixed solid of poloxamer, gelatin and chitosan(Mediclore®) after axillary dissection for breast cancer

The overall study objective is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) and Pertuzumab under real-world disease conditions in the Spain, and specifically in patients treated under compassionate use or early access program

The purpose of this study is to enhance the care of older metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients by increasing awareness among oncology providers as to the unique aspects of care required for older patients. The goal of the study is to educate providers on the utility of geriatric assessment in guiding therapy of older metastatic breast cancer patients. The investigators will also assess the feasibility and benefit of incorporating geriatric self-assessments into clinical practice. The study will include three phases.

The purpose of this research study is to test a new way to deliver oncology and palliative care for patients with metastatic breast cancer. The goal of this study is to test a model where oncology and palliative care work together to care for participants with metastatic breast cancer who were recently admitted to the hospital or have new or worsening cancer involving their brain or the fluid around the brain or spinal cord. The investigators are studying whether participants who receive care from both teams have better communication about their care and improved quality of life and mood compared to those receiving care from only their oncologists. The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to conduct a randomized trial testing the impact of the collaborative palliative and oncology care model or standard oncology care models among patients with poor prognosis metastatic breast cancer. Participants assigned to the intervention arm will participate in a series of structured palliative care visits, following tailored clinical practice guidelines previously developed for patients with metastatic breast cancer.

The hypothesis of this study is that positron emission mammography will provide comparable sensitivity to contrast-enhanced breast MRI in women with a high suspicion of breast cancer. The aim of this study is to determine the sensitivity of Positron Emission Mammography (PEM) relative to that of Contrast-enhanced breast MRI (CE-MRI) in women with a high suspicion of breast cancer

Decision-making for treatment of metastatic breast cancer after the second line of chemotherapy was limited by the lack of established predictive factors of benefit for further chemotherapy regimens. Eribulin has emerged as the only single agent demonstrating an overall survival improvement in the third-line setting or beyond. The purpose of this study was to define the clinical profile of metastatic breast cancer participants achieving long-term benefit from chemotherapy with eribulin in the third-line setting or beyond.

In summary, breast conserving therapy (BCT) is an effective, save and widely used treatment technique for early breast cancer. Radiotherapy has shown to give better local control and survival benefit and is an integrated part of BCT. The simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) technique is a new treatment technique in breast irradiation. In this technique the whole breast is irradiated simultaneous with boosting the tumour bed, as part of BCT. Late radiation-induced toxicity has not been investigated in patients treated with radiotherapy using this technique. Proposed study will study the late radiation-induced toxicity, describe patients-rated complaints, quality of life, survival and local control curves in patients treated for early breast cancer with breast-conserving surgery in combination with radiotherapy with the SIB technique as compared to sequential radiotherapy treatment.

This feasibility study will be conducted in order to provide proof of concept for the CanADVICE+® system comprising a smart phone app and a healthcare organization server side application based on Web 2 technologies. The main objective of this project is to optimise pharmaceutical counselling services by providing drug related information, in a digital format, to patients with metastatic breast cancer receiving Capecitabine.
