Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

The study is a nationwide, multicenter single-arm phase 2 study. The current phase 2 study investigates the efficacy of the combination of fulvestrant and alpelisib directly after progression on fulvestrant (either in first or second line, with or without previous use of CDK4/6-inhibitor) in patients with HR+ HER2- advanced breast cancer with PIK3CA mutated tumors. All eligible patients must have progressive disease on fulvestrant as latest treatment line. Previous treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor in first or second line is obligatory. After progressive disease is confirmed, it is important to continue fulvestrant (without CDK4/6 inhibition) during the screening period awaiting study enrollment. After study enrollment all participants will be treated with alpelisib and fulvestrant beyond progression. Follow-up time will be until progression or death or until a different oncolytic treatment has started (in case no progressive disease during previous fulvestrant and alpelisib treatment has been documented). Should participants discontinue due to reasons other than progression or death (e.g. toxicity), then they should still be evaluated for disease progression every 8 weeks as per protocol until progression, unless they do not wish to proceed with these screenings, or receive a different oncolytic treatment.

The investigators will create 4 information-video's about chemotherapy side-effects in curative breast cancer care. The communication is manipulated in the four videos. Participants will watch the video before the first chemotherapy and complete questionnaires before and after viewing the video and after chemotherapy 1,2 and 4. (The investigators cannot yet reveal the manipulation as it would influence the participants)

The study is designed to explore the clinical benefit following treatment with tucidinosta in combination with metronomic capecitabine and endocrine therapy in patients with hormone receptor-positive, Her2-negative advanced breast cancer who have received CDK4/6 Inhibitor treatment.

The study is being conducted to evaluate whether the efficacy of SHR-A1811 is better than Pyrotinib in combination with Capecitabine in HER2-Positive, Unresectable and/or Metastatic Breast Cancer Subjects Previously Treated With Trastuzumab and Taxane.

This is an open, prospective and interventional clinical study. Patients with advanced Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer resistant to trastuzumab will be enrolled in the study. Histological specimens obtained from different metastatic foci of patients, are used to conduct genome-wide sequencing together with Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) of blood samples. Meanwhile, investigator will construct PDO model based on biopsy tissue. Patients as well as their paired Patient-derived organoids (PDO) models are divided into six groups according to genomic signatures. Each group of patients will receive the best targeted treatment scheme from the current clinical perspective, while the matched PDO model will accept a variety of potential effective schemes intervention. The future treatment plan of patients will be timely adjusted based on the tumor inhibition rate of PDO models. This study is the first time to explore the best individualized application sequence of targeted therapy for refractory HER2 positive breast cancer by combining genome sequencing with drug sensitivity test of PDO model. The results are expected to improve the prognosis of patients with advanced HER2 positive breast cancer.

The PIK3CA gene is frequently mutated in breast cancer, leading to disease aggressiveness and patient mortality. Alpelisib, a small molecule that inhibits the activity of the PIK3CA gene product PI3Kα, has demonstrated clinical benefit in cancer patients with this gene mutation. However, hyperglycemia, an on-target toxicity associated with alpelisib that leads to hyperinsulinemia, limits the drug's clinical efficacy and induces high grade hyperglycemia in patients with baseline metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance and/or elevated HbA1c. Restoring insulin sensitivity and reduction in circulating concentrations of insulin have been reported to improve the activity of alpelisib. Evexomostat (SDX-7320) is a polymer-conjugate of a novel small molecule methionine aminopeptidase 2 (MetAP2) inhibitor that has demonstrated the ability to reduce alpelisib-induced hyperglycemia in multiple animal experiments and has demonstrated synergistic anti-tumor activity independent of changes in glucose or insulin. Evexomostat was well tolerated in a Phase 1 safety study in late-stage cancer patients and showed improvements in insulin resistance for patients that presented with baseline elevated insulin. Overall, the most common treatment-emergent adverse events with evexomostat (TEAEs) were fatigue (44%), decreased appetite (38%), constipation and nausea (each 28%), and diarrhea (22%). All other TEAEs occurred at an incidence <20%. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety of the triplet drug combination (alpelisib, fulvestrant plus evexomostat), to test whether evexomostat, when given in combination with alpelisib and fulvestrant will reduce the number and severity of hyperglycemic events and/or reduce the number of anti-diabetic medications needed to control the hyperglycemia for patients deemed at risk for alpelisib-induced hyperglycemia (baseline elevated HbA1c or well-controlled type 2 diabetes), and to assess preliminary anti-tumor efficacy and changes in key biomarkers and quality of life in this patient population.

This is an open-label, multicenter international trial in men and women with primary operable HR+/HER2-, ki67≥20%, grade 2 or 3 and stage II breast cancer to evaluate safety and long-term efficacy of a non-chemo treatment in patients biologically responders to neoadjuvant ribociclib and letrozole. This study aims to evaluate whether chemotherapy could be avoided for initial high-risk clinicopathological breast cancer patients that are converted to low genomic risk assessed by Risk of Recurrence-low (ROR-low) at 6 months of letrozole - ribociclib neoadjuvant treatment by continuing with this treatment in adjuvant setting.

This Phase III, randomized, two-arm, open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of giredestrant plus Phesgo compared with Phesgo after induction therapy with Phesgo plus taxane in participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive, estrogen receptor (ER)-positive advanced breast cancer (metastatic or locally advanced disease not amenable to curative treatment) who have not previously received a systemic non-hormonal anti-cancer therapy in the advanced setting.

Nowadays, the incidence of breast cancer is the first number of malignant tumors, and the primary treatment method is surgery. As is known to all, less postoperative complications and enhanced recovery are closely related to effective analgesia. However, postoperative patients often experience moderate pain, while associated with axillary discomfort. Serratus Anterior Plane Block (SAPB) relieves postoperative pain, but traditional single point block method has no effect on axillary discomfort. Therefore, it is necessary to try double point blocks to explore their impact on postoperative analgesia and axillary comfort. This RCT will recruit patients proposed to undergo Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM) and be randomized to single point or double point groups to evaluate their postoperative pain score and axillary comfort in order to provide clinical guidance.

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT); It is a treatment method in which high-intensity pressure waves are applied to the desired point in the body. It has been used in the treatment of kidney stones in previous years, and changes in bone tissue have been observed . Today, it is used in musculoskeletal diseases such as plantar fasciitis, epicondylitis, achillestendinitis, and osteoarthritis. The main mechanism of action of ESWT is not clearly known, but many studies have shown that it stimulates the early release of angiogenesis-related growth factors such as endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and increases blood circulation with induced neovascularization, resulting in cell proliferation and tissue growth. It has been shown to increase regeneration . It has been found to be effective in lymphedema with neovascularization and lymphatic channel synthesis . In the literature, there are studies investigating the additional contributions of complex decongestive therapy combined with ESWT in patients with lymphedema.
