Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

Vasomotor symptoms (VMS) are a common consequence of systemic therapies for breast cancer. Breast cancer treatments can cause VMS in approximately 30% of postmenopausal women and 95% of premenopausal women with early stage breast cancer (EBC). There are many non-estrogen-based interventions available to manage VMS, including; lifestyle modifications, complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies. However, a recent systematic review and meta-analysis of pharmacological and CAM interventions conducted by our team, found no single optimal treatment for VMS management in breast cancer patients. Given the complex patient, cancer and treatment variables influencing the experience of VMS, the numerous potentially effective VMS interventions available and the varying expectations for an effective intervention, the investigators believe Machine Learning (ML) is ideally suited to the analysis of this common and bothersome treatment related toxicity. The EPIC electronic medical record, and MyChart application has provided both clinicians and patients with increased tools for the documentation of health related outcomes. The investigators believe that the MyChart platform, and ML techniques can be utilized to collect, and analyze outcome data for breast cancer patients experiencing VMS.

The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of vibration therapy to be applied to patients undergoing breast cancer surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy on upper extremity joint range of motion, muscle strength, grip strength, pain, functionality, and quality of life.

The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of durvalumab that can be tolerated without causing very severe side effects when receiving standard treatment and to see what effects the study drug has on this type of cancer. The researchers doing this study are also interested in looking for markers that will help predict which patients are most likely to be helped by durvalumab when receiving standard treatment and what effects durvalumab has on this type of cancer.

This is a study of how one or more injections of HSP-130 under the skin effect the white blood cell counts and drug levels in women with breast cancer that has not spread to distant sites in the body (non-metastatic). This will be studied in women before breast surgery or while receiving chemotherapy. Safety will also be studied. Additionally, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects and safety of single and multiple doses of HSP-130 in subjects with non-metastatic breast cancer. This study will determine the dose to move forward for future clinical trials.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the "Smart Management Strategy for Health (SMASH)" program, which is designed to help cancer patients overcome their cancer crisis proactively and grow positively.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of resistive exercise on forearm blood flow and tissue oxygenation among breast cancer survivors with or at risk for breast cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL).

Living with breast cancer and forms of treatment, among them radiation therapy can cause both side effects such as pain, fatigue and skin changes that affect the well-being, as anxiety, feelings of isolation and changes in routine, which generate existential conflicts and allow the origin of the spiritual anguish phenomenon, which in turn, aggravates the physical and emotional symptoms and the ability to fight the disease. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the effect of intercessory prayer on levels of spiritual distress, religious / spiritual coping, psychological morbidity (anxiety and depression) and amylase levels salivary present in patients with breast cancer radiotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether weekly SMS reminders are effective in improving medication adherence of adjuvant aromatase inhibitors in women with breast cancer.

This randomized clinical trial studies a support group program in improving quality of life in underserved urban Latina breast cancer survivors. A psychosocial support group program may help reduce distress and improve health-related quality of life in underserved urban Latina breast cancer survivors.

This trial is a three-armed randomized controlled trial which will explore the utility of an implementation intention intervention on aerobic and resistance exercise in older (60+) prostate and breast cancer survivors and improving quality of life. It is expected that those in the experimental groups will report greater increases in their physical activity, resulting in greater improvements in their quality of life.
