Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

This mixed methods study evaluates the effectiveness of an organizational intervention to enhance implementation of strategies to increase breast cancer survivorship symptom and risk management.

This is a feasibility study to gain an understanding of the willingness of women with a history of early stage breast cancer and current obesity to enroll in a weight-loss study, accept an assigned intervention (bariatric surgery with lifestyle intervention or lifestyle intervention alone), and comply with the study plan for 1 year. If there is successful enrollment in this study, the plan is to use what is learned in this study to design a larger, longer-term clinical trial to look at the effect of weight loss and incidence of cancer recurrence.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about breast cancer lipodome signature in patients waiting for surgery with different Body Mass Index. The main question it aims to answer are: To highlight a specific lipidome molecular signature for breast cancer patients overweight and obese (BMI > 25 Kg/m2) compared with patients of normal weight (BMI<25 kg/m2). Evaluate the effect of the pool of biochemical, nutritional and anatomical-pathological data of breast cancer patients and the correlation between molecular profile and body weight.

The goals of this clinical trial are: demonstrate the safety of REGENERA breast implant in patients undergoing lumpectomy of malignant breast lesions demonstrate the safety and performance of REGENERA in terms of investigator's satisfaction, potential interference with current standard-of-care imaging techniques and occurrence of device-related serious adverse events. Participants will perform 13 study visits, and at each visit, all necessary study procedures will be performed according to the clinical investigation plan: Screening Pre-surgery treatment Surgery and study device implant Post-surgery follow-up up to 5 years

Breast cancer is the most common cancer type among women in Turkey and the world. Chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy, immunotherapy and hormone therapy are used in the treatment. Nutrition is one of the important factors affects cancer treatment. In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of clinical studies on the ketogenic diet (KD) in different types of cancer. In the literature, it has been shown the KD applied with chemotherapy improves the quality of life and decreases the body weight and tumour size in women with breast cancer. However, there is no comprehensive study evaluating the effect of KD on chemotherapy-induced sensory and motor neuropathy and survival in breast cancer patients. In this project, the KD will be planned for overweight and obese women diagnosed with breast cancer who will be treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Tumour size, nutritional status, biochemical findings, anthropometric measurements, quality of life, sensory and motor polyneuropathy and survival will be evaluated. Fifty-six women with breast cancer who comply with the study criteria and are willing to participate in the study will be given an adequate and balanced healthy diet program during the standard neoadjuvant treatment (12 weeks) with anthracycline. After the interim evaluation, individuals will be randomly divided into two groups. Simultaneously with standard neoadjuvant therapy containing taxane (12 weeks), KD will be planned for the first group and the second group will continue on the adequate and balanced healthy diet program. After neoadjuvant therapy, the effects of diets on prognosis and other factors (nutritional status, biochemical findings, anthropometric measurements, quality of life, sensory and motor polyneuropathy, and survival) will be compared. In this study, unlike other studies, the first data on the effect of KD on chemotherapy-induced polyneuropathy and pathological response in women with breast cancer will be obtained. In this respect, it has the potential for nutritional practices in clinical oncology. The KD could improve body composition and the complications related to obesity and decrease polyneuropathy. Therefore, drug-using and application to the hospital could decrease. The results of the project will contribute to the improvement of the health and the quality of life of women, who are the most important element of society and the family.

The purpose of this study is to determine if pharmacokinetics of docetaxel is modified by the body composition (assessed by the BMI but also by CT-scan) in patients treated by docetaxel as adjuvant treatment of a localized breast cancer

This phase II trial tests how well an exercise intervention, Exercising Together, works in preventing declines in physical and mental health in couples during radiation treatment for cancer. Treatments for cancer can cause side effects such as fatigue as well as strain on relationships. Exercising Together is a partnered exercise program that adds communication, collaboration and support between partners during exercise to fortify the relationship and amplify the benefits of physical training. Exercising Together program may be effective on the mental and physical health of couples during radiation treatment for cancer.

The goal of this interventional study is to assess the effects of either physical exercise program or combined with cognitive training (dual motor and cognitive training program) on breast cancer survivors. The main questions it aims to answer are: Analyze the effectiveness of a supervised dual-task training program or a physical exercise program on the executive functions of the participants. Evaluate the impact of both interventions on physical function, emotional aspects, and important biomarkers related to muscle-brain crosstalk. Participants will perform a 20-week supervised and controlled program, three times a week, along with weekly calorie and step challenges. Researchers will compare the dual-task training group, with the physical exercise group, and with a control group, which will perform the guideline recommendations of physical activity (non-supervised) to see how these intervention approaches can impact cognitive functions, physical functions, emotional aspects, and biomarkers related to muscle-brain crosstalk. Assessments will take place at three-time points: at baseline, after the intervention (20 weeks post-baseline) and after a 12-week follow-up period (32 weeks post-baseline).

Investigator propose the first French randomized comparative study to assess the efficacy of a remotely supervised online cognitive stimulation program, compared to an unsupervised online cognitive exercise intervention, in reducing cognitive complaints in localized breast cancer patients after adjuvant chemotherapy. Previous randomized studies have confirmed the effectiveness of online cognitive stimulation programs compared to standard care. The study seeks to determine the added value of remote supervision by a neuropsychologist. The control group will have access to the same online cognitive exercises as the experimental group but without supervision. Investigator has chosen not to include a wait-list group as it would be unethical to deny patients with cognitive complaints the opportunity to participate in an intervention expected to benefit them. The secondary objective is to evaluate the benefit of the supervised digitalized cognitive intervention on objective cognitive impairment. The research hypothesis is that incorporating personalized remote support with supervision from a neuropsychologist into a digitalized cognitive stimulation program will reinforce the effectiveness of the intervention on cognitive complaints. This will be achieved by improving participation/adherence to the online cognitive stimulation program, as well as through the personalized supervision itself. Investigator believe that the supervision sessions, including educational components, will enable patients to identify their strengths, promote their cognitive awareness, and develop individualized strategies to apply their compensatory abilities in real-life situations. Since cognitive difficulties have multiple underlying causes, reducing these symptoms requires a multifaceted approach. The hypothesis is that combining cognitive training (which increases neuroplasticity and directly targets the cognitive domains affected by cancer and its treatments), with structured supervised educational sessions based on compensatory strategies, will yield better outcomes than online cognitive stimulation alone.

The main aim of this study is to determine the effect of a multimodal intervention (Nutrition and Exercise) on quality of life, emotional well-being, and secondary symptomatology in patients diagnosed with breast cancer during neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment, and to compare them with the control group.
