Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ductal"

The purpose of this project is to assess the feasibility of collecting plasma samples for cardiac biomarker assessment, and to identify if there is an associations between the biomarkers, echocardiographic features and the cardiac PET scan results (in patients receiving radiation therapy). This is the first step in a research program that has an overall goal of being able to predict early-treatment induced cardiotoxicity in patients with breast cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine how MRI changes the treatment and diagnostics of ductal breast cancer. 100 women with newly diagnosed breast cancer will participate the study.

Compare the estimate of the lesional size in MRI to that in mammography, taking as a reference the definitive anatomo-pathological size
