Microscopy Imaging of Whole-mount Stained Human Tissues

TumorBrain3 more

The goal of this clinical trial is to develop an imaging platform for intraoperative tumor margin delineation in 250 cases of tumor-suffered patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: • to develop the protocol of rapid assessment of surgical specimens without need for fixation, embedding, and cryosectioning required for conventional histopathology. Participants will provide a small piece of their surgical specimens from tumor removal surgery . If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare normal specimens to see if we can observe the difference.

Prediction of Long-term Arm Morbidity Following Breast Cancer Surgeries and Treatments

Breast Cancer

Background: Breast cancer (BC) treatments usually include a combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. These life-saving treatments cause high percentages of arm morbidity, which often lasts for months, or develops months after surgery. Arm and shoulder morbidity includes prolonged pain, restriction of movement, limitation of function and lymphedema (chronic progressive edema). All of these morbidities affect the quality of life (QOL) of the recovering patients and require lengthy care. Early detection of patients at risk and provision of proactive treatment can improve the recovery process from surgery and oncology treatments. Aim: To develop a screening tool for the early identification of women at high risk for prolonged arm morbidity following BC treatments (persistent pain, lymphedema, function deficits and decreased range of motion), validate the tool, and examine the efficiency of intervention based on the the use of the tool.

Feasibility and Identification of Breast Cancer Patients for Potential Avoidance of Surgery

Breast Cancer

The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the use of an ultrasound-guided biopsy with what is found during surgery in finding evidence of the disease.

Prospective Screening for Breast Cancer-related Lymphedema

Lymphedema

The primary objectives of this study are twofold: 1) to detect and determine the level of symptoms, functional disability, and changes in quality of life that breast cancer patients experience from changes in their arms during and after treatment for breast cancer by collecting patient reported outcome measures, objective measurements, and clinical information in a prospectively maintained database and 2) to improve breast cancer-related lymphedema outcomes by early detection using objective measurements and symptoms assessments and assess these outcomes by maintaining the data in a database in order to contribute to the literature. The secondary aim of this study is to assess extracellular fluid content in the upper extremity, breast, and/or trunk of patients treated for breast cancer before, during, and after treatment in order to better understand the role of bioimpedance spectroscopy in lymphedema screening.

Novel Thermal Imaging Technique for Breast Screening

Breast Cancer

This trial is to study a new breast imaging tool called Thermalytix™. ThermalytixTM is a new radiation-free, automated breast cancer screening technique that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) over thermal images. Thermal images are heat signatures in our body. This new technique will capture heat signatures in the breast and analyze those images with AI software. This study will evaluate the performance of ThermalytixTM breast imaging against standard imaging modalities, such as mammography and ultrasound.

Gene Expression Profiling to Help Define the Need for Neo-Adjuvant Chemotherapy in HR+, HER- Breast...

Breast Cancer

The goal of the experiment is surgical de-escalation. Patients with newly diagnosed cT1-3, cN1, cM0 and HR+, HER2- breast cancer and low clinical risk usually first receive breast cancer surgery, after which chemotherapy can be added based on the final anatomopathological results or additional Gene Expression Profiling (GEP) testing. Chemotherapy helps reduce the cancer recurrence or metastasis risk. Adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) can be given for large tumours, aggressive tumours with high grade tumour cells, or if axillary lymph node invasion is discovered during surgery. If we were able to identify patients requiring chemotherapy prior to surgery, we could treat them with Neo-Adjuvant Chemotherapy (NAC) instead. By using MammaPrint® GEP, we would be able to stratify patients into either a low- or high-risk category. Since the high-risk group is known to benefit from chemotherapy to improve overall survival, they would be treated with NAC, which could also potentially lead to surgical de-escalation. Breast conserving procedures, such as a lumpectomy instead of a mastectomy, could allow more aesthetically pleasing results and increase patient quality of life. Using NAC for patients with axillary lymph node invasion could lead to nodal complete pathological response (cN1 -> ypN0), allowing patients that are willing to enter the TADANAC trial a lymph node sparing procedure instead of a full axillary lymph node dissection.

Metastatic Breast Cancer-Specific Prognostic Tool

Metastatic Breast Cancer

In this qualitative study, Investigators will conduct semi-structured interviews with clinicians that are involved in the care of patients with breast cancer to evaluate the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility/usability of a metastatic breast cancer-specific prognostic tool. These interviews will be conducted by the UNC CHAI Core and will continue until thematic saturation (estimated 20-30 participants). The investigators will code the qualitative data using emerging themes, guided by a well-established implementation science theory, the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). The information gained from these studies will inform an implementation approach to increase the usability and acceptability of a novel prognostic tool to assist oncologists in the prognosis of patients with metastatic breast cancer.
