Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

This is a multi-center , open-lable clinical trial. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a term applied to breast cancer cases that have <1% expression of the estrogen receptor (ER) and the progesterone receptor (PR) and do not over express HER2. TNBC is diagnosed in 15-20% of breast cancer cases and tends to occur in younger women and have biologically more aggressive high grade disease. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the following two combinations: i) nab-paclitaxel+carboplatin; ii) nab-paclitaxel+capecitabine in subjects with advanced TNBC and up to one prior line of systemic treatment for metastatic disease. Maintenance therapy with capecitabine after completion of combination chemotherapy.

This study is a post-authorisation study, committed to Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) and China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA), in order to provide more effectiveness and safety data about Faslodex in real world clinical practice in China. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Faslodex 250mg monthly to treat post-menopausal women with oestrogen receptor-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, for disease relapse on or after adjuvant anti-oestrogen therapy or disease progression on therapy with an anti-oestrogen, in terms of progression-free survival (PFS), by collecting real world data according to Chinese physicians' clinical practice.

The purpose of this research project is to create images of where and how the amino acid (the building blocks of proteins)Tryptophan is processed in normal and abnormal tissue in the patient's body. Tryptophan is a normal building block of proteins in the body. Sometimes in the case of cancer and other diseases, Tryptophan is processed abnormally, and possible treatments for this abnormality are of great interest because of the potential to improve cancer care.

Lymph node biopsy followed by axillary reverse mapping may reduce the incidence and severity of arm lymphedema. This randomized phase II trial is studying how well sentinel and/or axillary lymph node biopsy with or without axillary reverse mapping works in reducing incidence and severity of lymphedema in patients with resectable stage 0-II breast cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the overall response rate, toxicity, progression free survival and quality of life of chemotherapy with docetaxel and oxaliplatin in recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Etoposide Monotherapy is effective and safe in the treatment of recurrent or metastatic breast cancer in Chinese female patients.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, fluorouracil, epirubicin hydrochloride, and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. It is not yet known whether giving combination chemotherapy together with or without bevacizumab is more effective in treating patients with nonmetastatic breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy works compared with giving combination chemotherapy together with bevacizumab in treating patients with nonmetastatic breast cancer.

This single arm observational study will assess the duration and safety of treatment with trastuzumab in routine clinical practice in participants with early or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer. Data will be collected from female participants treated with trastuzumab according to the Summary of Product Characteristics and local protocols. Duration of observation for each participant is from therapy initiation until permanent discontinuation for any cause.

To compare the efficacy in terms of the pathological complete response rate (pCR) to preoperative administration of qw or q3w Paclitaxel, Carboplatin and Trastuzumab (PCH)

This randomized phase II trial studies how well fulvestrant works with or without bortezomib in treating patients with estrogen receptor positive breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body and cannot be removed by surgery. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. Bortezomib may stop the growth of breast cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth or by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether fulvestrant is more effective with or without bortezomib in treating breast cancer.
