Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

The investigatorsconduct the precise sentinel lymph node biopsy using preoperative computed tomographic lymphography in breast cancer. The investigators aimed to summarize the law of lymphatic drainage of breast, and to conduct the accurate surgical treatment of breast cancer.

Patients with high risk breast cancers (any locally advanced breast cancer patient defined as Stages IIB-III [excluding inflammatory breast cancer] with stage IIA being eligible for triple negative and HER2-positive breast cancers) will receive neoadjuvant radiation to any portion of their tumour in three fractions in order to act as an immune primer. Radiation will be delivered to a portion of the tumour in three fractions. The patient will be positioned prone as per the SIGNAL 2.0 protocol. The patient will then go on to standard of care treatment (neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery) followed by whole-breast radiation as needed. Pathologic complete response will be the primary outcome. Immune markers will also be evaluated.

This study is being done to help the investigators determine how accurate the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) procedure is in identifying residual cancer cells after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients presenting with locally advanced breast cancer.

Phase III randomized clinical trial evaluating the sequencing of anthracyclines and taxanes in neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced HER2-negative breast cancer.

The main goal of the study is to abandon breast surgery in patients with breast cancer with a clinical complete response (cCR) after neoadjuvant systemic therapy and confirmed pCR using Vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB) and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). Evidence of the high diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity and specificity) of vacuum aspiration biopsy in determining pCR in patients with clinical complete response after neoadjuvant systemic therapy will allow abandoning breast surgery in favor of radiation therapy alone, improving the quality of life of these patients.

Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy is the gold standard method to stage axilla in breast cancer. The aim of the study is to compare the efficiency of various methods to identify SLN is breast cancer patients.

This is a multi-center, open-label, phase Ib/II study of APG-2575 as a single agent in patients with advanced solid tumors or in combination with anti-cancer agents such as CDK 4/6 inhibitor palbociclib in patients with ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer (mBC) who have progressed or relapsed after first line therapy

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women worldwide. An important portion of the breast cancer survivors will face chronic pain complaints. These pain complaints do not only impact the patient's quality of life but also prevents resumption of activities, leading to huge economic costs. 30% of all breast cancer survivors with pain present with perceived injustice which has been conceptualized as a multidimensional appraisal process characterized by a tendency to interpret one's losses as severe and irreparable, to attribute blame to others for one's suffering and to experience a sense of unfairness. Perceived injustice is also associated with increased opioid prescription and use, urging the need for targeted interventions to diminish perceived injustice. Despite the fact that specific treatment plans for perceived injustice are not yet proven, pain neuroscience education (PNE) is proven to reassure and encourage towards activity. In order to obtain the targeted behavioural change, motivational interviewing (MI) is used as the communication process throughout PNE. A multi-centre, parallel, two-arm, investigator-blinded study with 4-weeks intervention and two years follow-up will be conducted in 156 BCS with PI and pain. These will be randomly assigned to the intervention or usual care group. The groups will receive 1 online session, an information leaflet and 3 live sessions of education spread over 4 weeks. Pain neuroscience education in combination with motivational interviewing will be given in the experimental group and biomedically-focused education to the control group. The primary scientific objective of the study is to examine whether perceived injustice-targeted PNE is superior to biomedically-focused pain education in reducing pain after 12 months in breast cancer survivors with perceived injustice and pain. The secondary objectives of the study are to examine whether perceived injustice-targeted PNE, compared to biomedically-focused pain education, results in improving health-related quality of life, reducing perceived injustice and opioid use after 24 months in breast cancer survivors with perceived injustice and pain, and to conduct a health-care cost analysis which will finally result in a recommendation concerning the use of perceived injustice-targeted PNE in breast cancer survivors with perceived injustice and pain.

Although many PARP inhibitors did not improve pCR in neoadjuvant studies, it is not an unchallenged conclusion that TNBC does not benefit from use of PARP inhibitors in neoadjuvant therapy.This study is an open-label, two-cohort, multicenter trial. 60 patients with germline BRCA-mutated three-negative early breast cancer are planned to be enrolled and treated with fluzoparib combined with chemotherapy according to tumor response after EC (epirubicin and cyclophosphamide) for 2 cycles.

The purpose of this research study is to assess the feasibility of using a different dye and imaging device, indocyanine green (ICG)-fluorescent imaging through the Asimov Imaging Platform, to perform sentinel lymph node biopsy. Participants in this research study will be undergoing a sentinel lymph node biopsy as part of surgical treatment for breast cancer. Active participation will last through the post-operative visit.
