Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

This is a phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of INCMGA00012 and pelareorep and to see how well they work in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). INCMGA00012 is a monoclonal antibody that works by attaching to the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and blocking this pathway, allowing the immune system to recognize and attack the cancer cells. Pelareorep is a type of virus called reovirus which occurs naturally and may break down cancer cells. Giving INCMGA00012 and pelareorep may slow the growth and spread of the cancer to another part of the body.

The majority of early breast cancer patients are treated with adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) as part of their multimodal therapy. The aim of the RT is to lower the risk of local, regional and distant failure and improve survival. Modern RT is been provided with photon therapy. Now, more proton therapy facilities are opened, including in Denmark. Proton RT may have the potential to cause lower dose to heart and lung during breast RT. This trial will randomise patients between standard photon RT versus experimental proton RT. The primary endpoint is 10 year risk of heart disease.

A prospective, randomized, comparative study to evaluate efficacy of anticancer chemotherapy in predicting prognosis and determining chemotherapy method in early Hormone Receptor-positive breast cancer patients with clinicopathological high risk and GenesWell™ BCT low risk at multi-center in Korea

This phase II trial studies the immunologic response and side effects of using the WOKVAC vaccine in combination with chemotherapy and HER2-targeted monoclonal antibody therapy before surgery in treating patients with breast cancer. Vaccines like WOKVAC are made from tumor-associated antigens which may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel, 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. Trastuzumab and pertuzumab are forms of targeted therapy because they work by attaching themselves to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab and pertuzumab attach to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the tumor cell may be marked for destruction by the body's immune system. Giving the WOKVAC vaccine at the same time (concurrently) with paclitaxel, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab before surgery may kill more tumor cells.

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of nilotinib in preventing paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy in stage I-III breast cancer patients who are receiving paclitaxel therapy. Chemotherapy is the usual or ?standard? treatment for breast cancer. It kills cancer cells and lowers the chance that the cancer will come back. Sometimes, this treatment can cause numbness and tingling, especially in the hands and feet. This is called chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. This study aims to test the safety and effectiveness, both good and bad, of taking nilotinib in preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.

This is a Phase Ib/II, prospective , open-label, single center, Bayesian adaptive design, umbrella study evaluating the efficacy and safety of neo-adjuvant therapy in patients with breast cancer.

RATIONALE: Estrogen can promote proliferation of tumor cells in hormone receptors (HR)-positive breast cancer. The standard therapy of Luminal subtypes is endocrine therapy, which can influence proliferation of tumor cells by blocking the use of estrogen by cancer cells or lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. Thus, markers of proliferation are candidate markers of efficacy after short-term (e.g., 2 weeks or 4 weeks) preoperative hormone therapy. Ki-67 is most commonly used among these markers. In contrast to the absolute value, the degree of Ki-67 changes which consider the baseline values would be better to reflect the sensitivity of therapy. It is not yet known whether the degree of Ki-67 changes after 2 weeks or 4 weeks presurgery endocrine therapy is different and which interval is more suitable to assess therapy sensitivity. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying to compare the degree of Ki-67 changes after 2 weeks or 4 weeks preoperative endocrine therapy and to determine a more appropriate interval to assess hormone therapy sensitivity in women who are undergoing surgery for HR-positive, Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer.

This research study involves Niraparib as a possible treatment for triple negative breast cancer.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide/trastuzumab/pertuzumab followed by docetaxel/ trastuzumab/pertuzumab compared with epirubicin/cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel/trastuzumab/pertuzumab in the adjuvant treatment of early breast cancer.

Breast cancer is kind of highly heterogeneous tumor. The patients with the same stage and with the same treatment regimen, their prognosis varies greatly, mainly due to the different phenotypes of breast cancer and different sensitivities to drug therapy. PMA50 and BluePrint classification divides breast cancer into other inherent subtypes: Luminal A, Luminal B, HER2-enriched (HER2-E) and Basal-like. Previous studies have shown that these patients with inherent subtype of HER2-enriched are more likely to obtain higher pCR after anti-HER2 therapy. And more study and meta analysis had demonstrated the higher pCR is closely related to EFS. The genetic and molecular typing of breast cancer is closely related to the prognosis of breast cancer, so it is imperative to seek a new treatment regimen for precision treatment and maximize the therapeutic benefit of HER2-enriched patients.
