Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

This is a multi-centre, prospective cohort study, aiming to evaluate a blood test in early detection of the four common cancers, based on the investigation of the circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA). Primary objective: To evaluate the performance characteristics of the blood ctDNA test in early detecting cancers. Secondary objectives: To evaluate the performance characteristics of the test in determining the origin of tumour, as compared to the findings of the imaging diagnostic tests. To determine the risk of cancers development in the high-risk population, as compared to that in the moderate-risk group.

This project aims to establish the cancer genome atlas and the platform of recurrence risk prediction specific for East Asian breast cancer patients. The study was planned to collect blood sample, fresh tumor tissue, and paraffin embedded tumor tissue from 2000 patients. Aims to identify unique genetic alterations in Asian tumors, to identify the susceptible genes for breast carcinogenesis in East Asia, and to establish the new platform for accurate prediction of recurrence. The investigator will explore the association of patient outcomes with the genetic alterations from the cancer atlas of East Asian breast tumors.

This is an observational study to validate target axillary dissection (TAD) in locally advanced tumors (cN2 and/or cT4).

This will be a Phase 2 clinical trial to assess somatostatin receptor (SSTR) expression in Stage IV estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer using Gallium-68 DOTATATE or Copper-64 DOTATATE PET/CT.

Researchers plan to study the natural history of ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1)-induced neuropathy both in patients without any history of neuropathy or previous neurotoxic agent use and in patients who have such a history.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether Contrast-Enhanced Mammography/CEM scans performed 2 minutes and 6 minutes after receiving Iohexol contrast dye can be used to identify the amount of residual disease in the breast following neoadjuvant treatment.

The purpose of the study is to find out if an investigational vaccine called Dendritic Cell (DC) vaccine given together with standard of care chemotherapy drugs can help people with Triple Negative and HR low positive breast cancer.

In the current scenario, a reliable liquid biopsy method for predicting outcomes in solid tumors, especially among breast cancer patients, is lacking. Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) serve as crucial indicators of metastasis, and their early detection could significantly enhance patient stratification and facilitate the customization of personalized treatments. However, detecting CTCs in breast cancer patients presents complexities due to their substantial phenotypic heterogeneity and typically low concentration. Numerous approaches have been developed for CTC detection. Nonetheless, the currently available technologies remain intricate, time-consuming, and costly. The BioCellPhe Project is dedicated to the development of a novel device capable of isolating and characterizing individual CTCs. This innovative device relies on the identification of specific cell membrane proteins with remarkable precision, achieved through the application of novel orthogonal techniques. On one hand, engineered bacteria are utilized to precisely bind to membrane proteins of interest on CTCs. On the other hand, Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) is employed for the detection of individual molecules. Specifically, the BioCellPhe Project focuses on comprehensively studying CTCs in breast cancer patients, encompassing both metastatic and non-metastatic cases.

This study examines patient understanding of current and lifetime risk for breast cancer in women of color from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds.

Evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of Mammography in the morpho-structural analysis of mammographic images in breast cancer-diagnosed patients or patients in follow-up for breast cancer by extracting a number of features describing the texture and morphology of the lesions reported in the form of a structured report explicitly developed for the study. Correlation of the data obtained from evaluating the primary endpoint with the genetic/molecular analysis on liquid biopsy.
