Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

This is a single arm, open-label, lead in phase Ib dose confirmation, followed by phase II study with 2 parallel study cohorts.

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of novel MRI-guided ultrasound stimulated microbubble treatment to enhance radiation effects in humans receiving external beam radiotherapy delivered using a LINAC (linear accelerator) radiation therapy device.

Chronic pain in breast cancer survivors (BCS) is of considerable concern as it impacts the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and activities of daily living negatively. Over the past decades, awareness has raised the value of pain neuroscience education (PNE) in chronic pain. However, pain education remains underused in oncology and is often restricted to a biomedical management, which falls short in explaining persistent pain following cancer. Since PNE alone has rather small effect sizes, it should ideally be combined with a physical part, 'behavioural graded activity' (BGA). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of PNE with BGA compared to usual care on chronic pain in BCS. A multi-centre, parallel, two-arm, double-blinded superiority with a three months intervention and two years follow-up will be conducted in 200 BCS with chronic pain. These will be randomly assigned to the intervention or usual care group. The intervention group will receive 6 sessions, in which PNE and BGA will be integrated. Whereas, the usual care group will receive an information leaflet regarding "Pain in and after cancer". The primary objective of the present study is to examine whether the combination of PNE and BGA has an added value in decreasing the pain intensity compared to the usual care in BCS with chronic pain. The secondary objectives are to investigate whether the combination of PNE and BGA has the ability to reduce endogenous hyperalgesia and improve HRQoL compared to the usual care in BCS with chronic pain.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin plus carilizumab as first-line treatment in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

Despite different clinical characteristics including the response to treatment and the patterns of metastatic relapse, invasive lobular breast carcinoma (ILBC) is treated like invasive ductal breast carcinoma (IDBC) carcinoma both in the clinics and in clinical trials. A large majority of ILBC are ER+/HER2- and almost 90% have loss of E-cadherin (CDH1) expression. A non-clinical study of CDH1 synthetic lethality interactions has identified ROS1 as a potential target. In vivo, ROS1 inhibitors produced profound antitumor effects in multiple models of E-cadherin-defective breast cancer, providing the preclinical rationale for assessing ROS1 inhibitors in this setting. Endocrine therapy being the mainstay of therapy for ER+/HER2- ILBC and the pre-operative setting offering a platform for rapid drug evaluation and biomarker research, the ROSALINE phase 2 study will evaluate the efficacy of Entrectinib (a potent inhibitor of ROS1 among other targets) in combination with letrozole (+ goserelin in premenopausal women) in the early setting of ILBC (stages 1 to 3). The neoadjuvant therapy will last 4 months and post-operative therapy will follow local practice. Biomarker research will include RNA sequencing of initial biopsies and surgical specimens, as well as liquid biopsies.

This study will compare the effects on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) of aerobic exercise in different amounts (number of minutes/session) over different periods of time (number of weeks). Aerobic exercise is physical activity of light-to-moderate intensity that uses the large muscle groups (muscles in your legs, buttocks, back, and chest) and can be performed for at least 10 minutes. The researchers will study the effects of different exercise programs on how well the study participants' bodies use oxygen, how well their heart pumps blood, how well their lungs function, and how healthy their blood vessels are.

This is a prospective, single site, randomized, double-blind Phase III clinical trial to evaluate the clinical value of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the adjuvant therapy of triple-negative breast cancer patients.

This is an open-label, two-part, phase 1-2 dose-finding study designed to determine the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and proof-of-concept efficacy of ST101 administered IV in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study consists of two phases: a phase 1 dose escalation/regimen exploration phase and a phase 2 expansion phase.

The prognosis for patients with metastatic breast cancer has improved continuously. Systemic therapies alone are not able to cure the disease permanently. Investigators initiated this randomized controlled multinational and multicenter clinical trial to analyse the impact of a local metastases-directed radiotherapy in addition to standard systemic therapy in patients with oligometastatic breast cancer on progression-free survival and quality of life.

This study is being done to see if tucatinib works better than placebo when given with other drugs to treat participants with HER2-positive breast cancer. A placebo is a pill that looks the same as tucatinib but has no medicine in it. This study will also test what side effects happen when participants take this combination of drugs. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating your disease. Participants will have cancer that has spread in the body near where it started (locally advanced) and cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic). In this study, all participants will get either tucatinib or placebo. Participants will be assigned randomly to a group. This is a blinded study, so patients and their doctors will not know which group a participant is in. All participants will also get trastuzumab and pertuzumab. These are 2 drugs used to treat this type of cancer.
