Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ductal"

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.

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.

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 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 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.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of MRI±biopsy to optimize resection of Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) breast cancer.

PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS Rakesh Patel, MD- Radiation Oncologist Peter Beitsch, MD- Breast Surgeon REGISTRY DESIGN Multicenter, non-randomized, post market registry of intracavitary accelerated partial breast irradiation in appropriately selected patients. SAMPLE SIZE AND SITES: Approximately 400 patients may be enrolled. Up to 100 qualified U.S. sites may participate in this registry. ENDPOINTS: PRIMARY ENDPOINTS Subcutaneous Toxicities - The incidence of signs and symptoms of subcutaneous toxicities will be recorded at the following follow-up visits; at six (6) month, one (1) year, two (2) year, three (3) year, four (4) year, and five (5) year. Skin Toxicities - Specific toxicities that can result from radiation therapy will be recorded at each follow-up visit. The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events will be used and to be recorded at each follow-up visits; at one (1) month, six (6) month, one (1) year, two (2) year, three (3) year, four (4) year, and five (5) year. Cosmetic Outcome - Cosmetic outcome will be recorded at the following follow-up visits; at one (1) month, six (6) month, one (1) year, two (2) year, three (3) year, four (4) year, and five (5) year. Cosmetic outcome will be assessed and graded in two ways: Patient Quality of Life Questionnaire - A Quality of Life Questionnaire (QOL) will be completed at the following visits; at one (1) month, six (6) month, one (1) year, two (2) year, three (3) year, four (4) year, and five (5) year. SECONDARY ENDPOINTS Local-regional Breast Failure - The secondary efficacy endpoint is ipsilateral breast failure at five (5) years. This includes: Ipsilateral recurrence within the initially treated volume. (Within the tumor bed) Ipsilateral recurrence of cancer outside of the initially treated volume. (Elsewhere Failure) Axillary nodal recurrence Survival - to be recorded at each follow-up visit Overall Survival Disease Free Survival Device Performance - to be recorded during the balloon applicator placement and during the course of the radiation treatments: Ability to deliver treatment Axxent System / Balloon Applicator performance TREATMENT DEVICE The device to be used is the electronic brachytherapy system for the treatment of early stage breast cancer with intracavitary accelerated partial breast irradiation. The device manufacturer is Xoft, Incorporated. All Xoft technology cleared by the FDA for the treatment of early stage breast cancer can be used in this post market data collection registry. OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE Representatives from American Brachytherapy Society (ABS), American Society of Breast Surgeons (ASBS), and American College of Radiation Oncology (ACRO)will oversee study management.

This is a study on how to activate the immune system with a vaccine. The vaccine is made up of two proteins found in breast cancer: telomerase and survivin. The vaccine is given in combination with other drugs that may also have an effect on the immune system and attack the cancer. The goals of the study are: to test the safety of the combination of agents to find out what effects the treatment has on advanced breast cancer
