Oncoplastic Breast-conserving Surgery in Non-metastatic Breast Cancer Patients

Local Recurrence of Malignant Tumor of Breast

Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is the traditional surgical treatment for early-stage breast cancer patients. There are evidences indicating that oncoplastic-BCS (displacement technique) could improve cosmetic outcomes and/or quality of life, and has similar oncological safety as traditional BCS does. However, there are no prospective trial comparing oncoplastic-BCS vs. traditional BCS in terms of cosmetic outcomes and oncological safety. In this study, the investigators are going to address this issue by assigning patients into traditional and oncoplastic-BCS group, based on their preference.

Studying Tumor Tissue Samples From Patients With Early-Stage Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at tumor tissue samples from patients with early-stage breast cancer.

Involvement of Endogenous Digitalis-like Compounds in Breast Cancer

Breast NeoplasmsFibrocystic Disease of Breast1 more

The endogenous digitalis-like compounds (DLC)are steroid hormones synthesized and released from the adrenal gland.They are integrated in the feed-back system of the Hypothalami-Pituitary-Adrenal gland axis.One of their remarkable function is to induce apoptosis in malignant cells. Recently, accumulating data point to the possibility of using synthetic DLC as new anti-cancer drugs. Less is known about the endogenous metabolism of these compounds in cancer patients. Proceeding from preliminary clinical data which demonstrated significantly reduced DLC plasma levels in breast cancer patients and from in vitro data which showed an impaired release of DLC towards stress stimuli in athymic nude mice,we put up the hypothesis that a latent adrenal insufficiency with low DLC levels facilitates the induction and progression of tumor diseases.

Proton MR Spectroscopy of Brain Metastases in Evaluation of Treatment Response.

Neoplasm MetastasisLung Neoplasms2 more

The aim of the study is to investigate the feasibility of in vivo single volume MR spectroscopy in evaluation of treatment response in patients with brain metastases, using 3T MR instrument. In order to optimize and avoid ineffective treatment of patients with brain metastases, in vivo MR spectroscopy can be an useful tool.

Ductal Lavage in Assessing Women With Early Breast Cancer or at High Risk of Developing Breast Cancer...

Breast Cancer

RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development of or treat early cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as ductal lavage, may improve the ability to assess the effectiveness of chemopreventive drugs, such as tamoxifen, on breast cells and may help doctors plan more effective treatment. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ductal lavage works in assessing changes in breast cells in women with early breast cancer or in those at high risk of developing breast cancer who are eligible for tamoxifen therapy.

Effects of Bariatric Surgery on Breast Density Improvement and Impact on Breast Cancer Risk in Severe...

Breast CancerMorbid Obesity1 more

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the US, and obese women have a 20% to 40% increase in the risk of developing breast cancer compared with normal-weight women. Bariatric surgery is now considered the first line option for weight loss management in morbidly obese patients with failure of medical treatment. There is strong evidence that in early stages of cancer the breast undergoes inflammatory and subsequently density changes that are observable in mammography. The aforementioned alterations have been suggested to be magnified by obesity, potentially due to its pro-inflammatory state. The investigators hypothesized that rapid weight loss following bariatric surgery and henceforth the reduction of inflammatory stress in the breast tissue could potentially have a positive effect in improving breast density and consequently, reducing the risk of breast cancer. In this order of ideas, with this study, the investigators aim to evaluate how breast density is modified after bariatric surgery, and how it impacts the risk of developing breast cancer using The Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) risk score and calculator in our population.

Genetic, Neurophysiological and Psychological Predictive Factors of Chronic Neuropathic Pain After...

Breast Cancer

The aim of the study is to establish the genetic, neurophysiological and psychological phenotype of the patients presenting a persistent neuropathic pain after surgery of the breast cancer, by comparing the neuropathic painful patients with the not painful and with the not neuropathic painful . This will be realized on a transverse cohort ("Seintinelle"cohort) and confirmed on a forward-looking longitudinal cohort.

Breast CancerCognitive/Functional Effects2 more

RATIONALE: Gathering health information from older patients undergoing chemotherapy may help doctors plan better treatment and improve the quality of life for these patients. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well an outpatient health care program works for older patients receiving chemotherapy for newly diagnosed breast cancer or colon cancer.

Breast CancerFatigue

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to fatigue. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at biological markers of fatigue in women with residual invasive breast cancer enrolled on clinical trial NSABP-B-45.

Breast CarcinomaCholangiocarcinoma5 more

This trial studies nutritional preferences and product accessibility in oral nutritional supplements in participants with breast, colorectal, upper gastrointestinal, or prostate cancer. Learning what participants like and dislike about their current or past used nutritional supplements may help doctor know how to improve them.
