Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

The goal of this randomized control trial is to determine if participating in an 8-week online cancer-related fatigue management intervention consisting of individualized exercise program, one-on-one goal setting and action plan development and interactive educational module will significantly reduce the perception of cancer-related fatigue, improve the quality of life, improve perceived cognition, and perceived function of breast cancer compared to a wait-list control group. The aim the project is to determine if an online cancerrelated fatigue management program is associated with 1. A decrease in cancer-related fatigue. 2. An improved perception of their ability and satisfaction in completing important activities 3. Greater quality of life. 4. Improved mobility 5. Improved perceived cognition

This study is a non blind, randomized controlled study, whose hypothesis was that chest wall/whole breast combined regional lymph node radiotherapy can improve the 5-year disease-free survival rate of clinical high-risk pN0 breast cancer patients.

The hypothesis is that the daily use of brass mesh bolus achieves a comparable dose to every-other-day use of Superflab bolus (current standard of care) in chest wall post-mastectomy patients treated with rotational 6 MV photon delivery.

The aim of this prospective study is to investigate quality of life and oncologic outcomes in low-risk elderly breast cancer patients randomized to adjuvant therapy with accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) alone or endocrine therapy alone after lumpectomy. The study population will include women age 65 years and older with low-risk tumor characteristics (tumor size <2cm, grade 1-2, node-negative). APBI will consist of 5 fractions of radiation therapy delivered every other day to the lumpectomy cavity. Endocrine therapy will be chosen by the treating medical oncologist with an aim of 5 years duration, as tolerated by the patient. Quality of life outcomes will be measured at 1 year following lumpectomy and compared between groups. We hypothesize that the use of APBI may be superior in terms of quality of life when compared to endocrine therapy alone following lumpectomy while providing equivalent rates of disease control and overall survival. In this phase II study, we anticipate enrolling 90 women at N.C. Cancer Hospital in Chapel Hill, NC.

Prehabilitation and rehabilitation through personalized lifestyle counseling in patients with breast cancer.

The purpose of the study is to find out if an investigational drug called Dendritic Cell (DC1) vaccine added to standard neoadjuvant (given before main treatment) therapy can help people with HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) positive breast cancer.

Among ER+HER2- premenopausal patients with N1 who undergoes primary breast surgery, we will identify the patients with a genomic low risk using the multigene-assay (OncoFREE®). In these, ovarian function suppression with endocrine therapies including either tamoxifen or aromatase-inhibitors will be administered for 5 years.

The goal of this study is to examine the role of Intraoperative Radiotherapy (IORT) in Ductal Carcinoma In-Situ (DCIS) and to improve the understanding of the clinical, radiographic, and patient-related impact of adopting IORT.

This ComboMATCH patient screening trial is the gateway to a coordinated set of clinical trials to study cancer treatment directed by genetic testing. Patients with solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and have progressed on at least one line of standard systemic therapy or have no standard treatment that has been shown to prolong overall survival may be candidates for these trials. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with some genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit from treatment that targets that particular genetic mutation. ComboMATCH is designed to match patients to a treatment that may work to control their tumor and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with locally advanced or advanced solid tumors.

The study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HRS-1358 monotherapy in patients with metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer in order to estimate the Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT), Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and select the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D).
