Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

This was an open label, multi-center protocol for U.S. patients enrolled in the study of ribociclib with endocrine therapy as an adjuvant treatment in patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative, high risk early breast cancer

This is an open-label, single arm, phase 2 trial that will include pre or post-menopausal female subjects, that have ER-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer. Subject will receive 4 cycles of palbociclib 125 mg (each cycle of palbociclib consists of treatment from D1 to D21 followed by a week of rest) combined with endocrine therapy given continuously (each cycle of endocrine therapy consists of treatment from D1 to D28). The endocrine therapy will be determined according to the menopausal status of the subject evaluated at the study screening.

The treatment of breast cancer at any given time can be through surgery, as well as adjuvant treatments (radiotherapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy) alone or together. And with this the patient tends to lose weight, he becomes depressed, resulting in an increasingly debilitating picture. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the relationship between physical exercise and its effects on quality of life in patients with breast cancer, those who underwent surgery for at least 6 months, patients who are still with the Tumor using the adjuvant treatments submitted to physical exercises and not submitted. The sample will consist of 25 to 50 female patients aged 18 to 75 years. Patients will be submitted to the initial quality of life evaluation (SF - 36 reduced version, Anxiety and depression (HAD Scale), Fatigue (Piper Fatigue Scale), Pain (Brief Inventory of Pain), Body Composition (Bioimpedance BYODINAMICS 450 ) And oxidative stress markers (oxidized and reduced glutathione, TBARS / MDA, Myeloperoxidase and Creatinine), inflammatory markers (IL1, IL6, IL8, IL10, MCP-1 and TNF-α), hormones Estrogen, progesterone), blood test (complete blood count) 24 hour food recall (24hs food recall), and perform the maximum repetition test to find the initial workload that will be adjusted every 4 weeks with the evaluation of the load and Completing the 12 weeks of training will be reevaluated following the initial evaluation. The data collected will be treated statistically with an α=5% using the software Stata 12.0.

In this study, effects of γδT cells on human Breast Cancer in combination with tumor reducing surgery, for example, cryosurgery going to be investigated.

This is an open label randomised multicentre pre-surgical pharmacodynamics study to compare and assess the biological effects of AZD9496 and fulvestrant in postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER) positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) negative (HER2-) primary breast cancer. Patients will receive AZD9496 or fulvestrant and will have an on-treatment image -guided core biopsy after 5-14 days of commencing treatment.

Neoadjuvant therapy is given to breast cancer patients whose cancers are relatively large or have spread to lymph nodes or both. The primary goal of this treatment is to prevent the cancer from coming back (recurring) elsewhere in the body, but if it makes the cancer in the breast and lymph nodes shrink it might be easier to remove. This could allow a patient to have a lumpectomy instead of a mastectomy and reduce the number of lymph nodes that the surgeon has to remove. In some cases, the neoadjuvant therapy works so well that it kills all of the cancer in the breast and lymph nodes. This is referred to as a pathologic complete response (pCR). Patients who achieve a pCR have a much lower risk of the cancer recurring elsewhere in their bodies. Investigators aren't sure which chemotherapy drugs work best with the HER2-targeted drugs, and what combination of these drugs causes the fewest side effects.Thus, this study has two main goals: To find out if treatment with wPCbTP, weekly paclitaxel and carboplatin given with trastuzumab and pertuzumab every 3 weeks, leads to as many pCRs as TCHP in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer, but has fewer side effects. To find out if HER2-positive patients whose cancers are not responding well after 12 weeks of wPCbTP get a better response when they are switched to a doxorubicin-containing regimen called AC for 4 cycles (8-12 weeks).

In patients with early-stage breast cancer, chemotherapy has substantially improved survival rates. Improvements in outcomes, however, are compromised by the considerable toxicities associated with chemotherapy, the most notable being neutropenia. Neutropenia is the presence of abnormally few white blood cells, leading to increase susceptibility to infection and can require hospitalization and need for intravenous antibiotics and is sometimes fatal. Febrile neutropenia (FN) can also be associated with treatment delays and dose reductions, potentially compromising treatment efficacy. Patients can receive medication to reduce the risk of FN such as Neupogen (filgrastim) as a daily injection for 5, 7 or 10 days. Since there is genuine uncertainty among healthcare professionals as to which administration schedule of Neupogen is the best for patients, the investigators are performing a randomized study for which patients will receive either 5, 7 or 10 days of Neupogen. Neupogen can cost approximately $200/injection, so if a physician prescribes 10 days for 8 cycles of treatment, this can cost $16,000 compared to a 5 day treatment which would cost half this. In addition to cost savings, many patients are not able to give themselves injections on a daily basis and require nursing resources which are utilized at high cost. This study will use an oral consent model to compare 5, 7 and 10 days of Neupogen to evaluate rates of febrile neutropenia and hospitalization.

The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of Trastuzumab plus natural killer(NK) immunotherapy to recurrent breast cancer.

Our study is a prospective, non-inferior, randomized phase II clinical trial, to compare the efficacy and safety profiles of DA versus DAC as adjuvant chemotherapy regimens for early-stage breast cancer patients.

The treatment of the patients with recurrent and metastatic breast cancer remains a major problem. There is still a lack of effective targeted therapy for Her-2 negative breast cancer.Based on the present researches on the anti-angiogenesis drugs in advanced breast cancer, the investigators believe that it is necessary to further explore the efficacy and safety of apatinib in advanced breast cancer.
