Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Intraductal, Noninfiltrating"

This trial studies the effect of an electronic health (eHealth) support program called PACK Health on patient reported health outcomes in patients with breast cancer. PACK Health monitors breast cancer patients' reported side effects and experience of care when receiving chemotherapy. Participating in the PACK Health coaching program may improve quality of life, decrease hospital admissions and improve overall health.

This randomized phase III trial studies how well oxybutynin chloride works in managing hot flashes in patients who are not candidates for, or not interested in hormone replacement therapy. Previous studies have shown that oxybutynin is effective in managing hot flashes, however doses used in prior studies have resulted in side effects. This trial is evaluating lower doses of oxybutynin with the goal of determining if they are efficacious with less side effects. ADAM-VTE

This randomized clinical trial studies a group-based lifestyle intervention or usual care in measuring biomarker levels in participants at high risk for breast cancer. Studying the effects that changes to daily eating and exercise habits can have on the body's hormone levels and the body's ability to activate proteins may help doctors identify interventions for individuals at high risk for breast cancer.

RATIONALE: Zoledronic acid may prevent bone loss and help prevent or lessen musculoskeletal symptoms in women receiving hormone therapy for breast cancer. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well zoledronic acid works in preventing musculoskeletal symptoms in post-menopausal women with stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer receiving letrozole.

RATIONALE: Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating women with ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast.

RATIONALE: Studying quality-of-life in patients having cancer treatment may identify the intermediate- and long-term effects of treatment on patients with cancer PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well an educational intervention works in supporting Hispanic women with stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer and their families or caregivers.

This randomized double-blind clinical trial studied the effect of oral omega-3 fatty acid on atrophic vaginitis in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors (N=52). Omega-3 fatty acid may reduce inflammation and improve vaginal symptoms in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors.

This randomized clinical trial studies educational counseling in improving communication and quality of life in spouses and breast cancer patients. An outpatient education and behavior skills training program may help spouses and patients with breast cancer communicate better and improve quality of life. It is not yet known whether educational counseling is more effective than an educational booklet in improving communication and quality of life.

This randomized pilot trial studies broccoli sprout extract in treating patients with breast cancer. Broccoli sprout extract contains ingredients that may prevent or slow the growth of certain cancers. Studying samples of tissue from patients receiving broccoli sprout extract may help determine if it can enter breast tumor cells and how it affects certain biomarkers.

Metastatic castration-resistant Prostate cancer (mCRPC) is a very late stage of prostate cancer with poor prognosis. Although there are several treatment strategies available for mCRPC, these drugs are not always effective for every patient. Also, it's still not clear what's the best therapeutic choice for a certain group of patients. In the previous works of the investigators, a subtype of prostate cancer, intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) was studied. The investigators have reported in their two published papers that, IDC-P is an adverse pathological type associated with rapid disease progression. They also found in another study that, for patients with IDC-P, Abiraterone seemed to have better treatment efficacy than Docetaxel-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment for mCRPC, in terms of either PSA-response and PSA-progression free survival. So, in this study, the investigators hope to design a prospective study to verify the predictive ability of IDC-P in the first-line treatment of mCRPC. With disease progression, the drug resistance will inevitably occur in all patients after the treatment of CRPC. However, the exact mechanism of this process is not yet known. So, in this study the investigators are also trying to explore some of the genes related to the treatment efficacy by means of the next generation sequencing.
