Development of a Response Signature to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer
Breast CancerBreast cancer is the most frequent cancer in women. It is often treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, administered before surgical resection. Unfortunately, many patients do not respond to this treatment, or only respond partially. Clinicians therefore need predictive biomarkers of treatment response. Thanks to an innovative technique, called CATS, this study aims at identifying blood and tissue biomarkers which are predictive of response to chemotherapy.
Early Rehabilitation After Immediate Reconstruction With TEI in Breast Cancer Patients
Breast CancerThe purpose of the study is to find best post-operative rehabilitation protocol after total mastectomy and immediate reconstruction with tissue expander insertion. This study compared outcomes of two post-operative rehabilitation protocols ; "conventional protocol", which immobilized shoulder and upper arm motion for a month and "early rehabilitation protocol" with short-term immobilization period and early mobilization.
Observational Trial on the Impact of Hypnose Used as a Sedation in Oncology Surgery in Breast Cancer...
Early Stage Breast CarcinomaThe investigators will compare the operated patients for a beginning breast cancer in the Hypnose arm and the patient in the classical general anesthesia arm. It is a Observational study as we cannot randomized patient, (they need to be compliant with Hypnose). Patient will be informed that some parameters, about his recovery, will be collected from their medical file. They will not have another particular treatment because they are in the study. It is just a prospective data collection. The patient will be compared on several items after the surgery ( as pain and pain killer intake, the heal process of the scar, etc...) Also the investigators will compare the impact of hypnose on the other treatments the patient received. The investigators need approximately 150 patients (Half in each arm).
Epidemiology of Breast Cancer in Women Based on Diagnosis Data From Oncologists and Breast Surgeons...
OncologyEpidemiology1 moreNational, prospective, multicentre, non-interventional epidemiological study, conducted among oncologists and breast surgeons in community and university hospitals, from the public sector in Algeria. The study will collect information on the characteristics, and breast carcinomas patterns of patients whose breast cancer diagnosis was confirmed by an anatomopathologist. The study will be conducted over a representative, but not exhaustive sample of Algerian female patients.
Awareness About Breast Cancer Screening
Breast CancerBreast cancer is the most common cancer in French women, with 52000 new cases each year. Shift work and night work is recognized by International Agency for Research on Cancer as a potential risk factor. Epidemiological studies find, for most of them, an increased risk of breast cancer compared with general population. Physiological hypothesis rely on the melatonin role in defense against tumorigenesis. According to High Authority of Health clinical good practice guidelines, the risk does not justify more screening than the organized screening. We do not have information about awareness level of workers in health structures, specially in the Hospices Civils de Lyon. Investigators would like to know how employees take part to breast cancer screening, specially in night workers. This study, as a survey, is a first step to evaluate the need for specific actions to increase the participation to breast cancer screening.
Frequency and Presentations of Chronic Pain Following Breast Cancer Surgery: An Observational Study...
Breast Cancer FemaleChronic PainThis study is designed to evaluate the frequency and presentations of chronic persistent pain in patients after breast cancer surgery at our tertiary care hospital. Results of this study will help us to understand the magnitude of problem in our population and making institutional guidelines for appropriate management of such patients.
Personalised Risk-based Breast Cancer Prevention and Screening
Breast CancerThis is a cohort study, applied research and T3 translational genomics to estimate the impact of genetic risk for breast cancer detection in the screening program. The study group base consists of 28 389 female participants, currently in the age-group 22-79, in the Biobank of Estonian Genome Centre. The study is aimed to demonstrate the usability of personalised approach for adjusting and stratifying screening recommendations, based on predicted genetic risk estimates for breast cancer in the situation, where the genome data could be available from all women who have given informed consent for that. The project includes both the detection of moderate and high hereditary breast cancer risk carriers as well as high risk polygenic risk-score (consisting several single nucleotide polymorphisms) carriers among healthy individuals for application of personalised prevention and screening strategies.
Ultrasonographic Axillary Localization
Breast NeoplasmBreast cancer is the most common cancer of women. Surgery for early breast cancer includes axillary lymph nodes staging. Axillary surgery may lead to intractable complications like permanent arm swelling. Axillary sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been introduced to minimize the incidence of these complications. Several methods are routinely used for identification of the sentinel node during operation. Some of these methods necessitate facilities that are not universally available; specially in countries with limited resources. In its simplest form, SLNB using the methylene blue dye technique has an identification rate of 88-94%. If the sentinel node can not be identified, full axillary dissection may be required and the risk of arm swelling is increased. The objective of this study is to maximize the identification rate of the sentinel node thus avoiding the need for extensive axillary surgery. The investigators assumed that preoperative tattooing of the suspicious lymph node during ultrasonographical imaging may help the surgeon in localizing the sentinel lymph node. In this study, the sonographer will perform preoperative tattooing of the suspicious node. The surgeon will perform SLNB by the methylene blue dye. The sensitivity of ultrasonographical tattooing relative to SLNB will be calculated. The study will determine if the tattooing technique may localize additional nodes that are missed by the methylene blue.
