Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ductal"

Open-label, non-randomized, multicenter, phase II, single arm non comparative trial evaluating toxicity and efficacy of gemcitabine plus platinum salt in combination with bevacizumab in first-line setting in metastatic collecting duct carcinoma.

The primary objective of this monocentric and feasibility study is to review the efficacy of cryotherapy in the treatment of unifocal mammary carcinomas in post-menopausal patients, with lumpectomy indication. The efficacy is defined by the rate of success of cryotherapy procedures. For each one of those evaluated process, an success will be defined on the tumor sample of lumpectomy by the absence of viable tumour cells. On the basis of our expertise, it seems interesting to propose this experimental procedure to patients as described above.

This phase I/Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of afatinib dimaleate when given together with capecitabine in treating patients with solid tumors, pancreatic cancer, or biliary cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment and has not responded to previous treatment. Afatinib dimaleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving afatinib dimaleate together with capecitabine may be a better treatment for solid tumors, pancreatic cancer, or biliary cancer.

RATIONALE: Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using tamoxifen or letrozole may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells or by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well tamoxifen or letrozole work in treating women with ductal carcinoma in situ.

RATIONALE: Collecting samples of blood and tissue from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn how fluvastatin effects biomarkers related to breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how fluvastatin effects biomarkers in women undergoing surgery for ductal carcinoma in situ or stage I breast cancer.

This is a study to investigate the potential clinical benefit of G1T48 as an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) alone and in combination with palbociclib, a cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK 4/6) inhibitor, in patients with estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. The study is an open-label design, consisting of 3 parts: dose-finding portion including food effect (Part 1), G1T48 monotherapy expansion portion (Part 2), and G1T48 in combination with palbociclib expansion portion (Part 3). All parts include 3 study phases: Screening Phase, Treatment Phase, and Survival Follow-up Phase. The Treatment Phase begins on the day of first dose with study treatment and completes at the Post-Treatment Visit. Approximately, 184 patients may be enrolled in the study.

This is a single-arm, phase II trial (monocentric) study designed to determine To evaluate activity of Cabozantinib in terms of ORR according to the RECIST 1.1 criteria in Metastatic Collecting Duct Renal Cell Carcinoma

This randomized phase II trial studies how well trametinib or combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with refractory or advanced biliary or gallbladder cancer or that cannot be removed by surgery. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether giving trametinib is more effective than combination chemotherapy in treating patients with biliary or gallbladder cancer.

The investigators hypothesize that black cohosh, as a potentially therapeutic agent, will reduce the overall size and aggressiveness of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) when given in a pre-operative setting.

This phase II trial studies how well gemcitabine hydrochloride, cisplatin, and nab-paclitaxel (paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation) work in treating patients with biliary cancers (which includes the gallbladder and bile ducts inside and outside the liver) that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, cisplatin, and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.
