Active clinical trials for "Breast Neoplasms"

This current chart review study was designed to investigate the incidence of breast cancer in women treated with subcutaneous testosterone therapy for symptoms of hormone deficiency.

The purpose of the study is to estimate the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative ultrasound-guided axillary lymph node biopsy for staging in patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer, and also to compare between ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration cytology and core needle biopsy in their ability to detect metastatic disease in the axillary lymph nodes of patients with breast cancer.

To establish a predicting system on axillary lymph node metastasis based on peripheral blood CK19mRNA and contrast-enhanced ultrasound.

The purpose of this study is to retrospectively collect and analyse the characteristics of breast cancer patients with bone metastasis, and compare the impact of intensive follow-up with standard post-operative surveillance on survival of Chinese breast cancer patients.

MEDIRAD-BRACE aims to determine the relationship between 3D dose distributions in cardiac structures and the risk of acute coronary events (ACE) and other cardiac complications in breast cancer (BC) patients to develop and externally validate multivariable Normal Tissue Complication Probability (NTCP) models to assess the risk of ACE in individual patients based on cardiac dose metrics in the first 10 years after BC radiotherapy.

The aim of this study is to examine alterations in the skin microbiome that occur during radiation therapy. The study design will examine changes secondary to ionizing radiation, and correlate these changes with the development and severity of radiation dermatitis. The goal is to improve understanding of the mechanism of radiation dermatitis.

The purpose of the pivotal reader study is to assess the comparative accuracy of Fujifilm DBT plus S-View versus FFDM in the detection of breast cancer.

Precariousness is a multifactorial concept that can be broken down in the form of economic insecurity, and / or social insecurity and / or territorial insecurity. Precariousness has an impact on health that is difficult to assess precisely because it also impacts on other factors that may themselves influence health. Therefore, the understanding of the impact of precariousness on health involves studying individuals in their context. Our study is designed to assess the impact of precariousness on the history of breast cancer, on care pathways, on treatment and rehabilitation in a multidisciplinary contextual analysis. Indeed, the socio -economic and geographical inequalities affect the history of breast cancer, treatment and its delay and post- treatment rehabilitation. The main objective of this project is to compare the stage of disease at diagnosis (according to the TNM classification) in deprived and non deprived patients. The secondary objectives are to compare in the two groups - the socio-economic and geographical inequalities - the direct and indirect costs related to the management, the out-of pocket costs and to describe, based on individual inequalities identified, the pathway of care of the patient. These objectives will be pursued in the framework of an observational cohort study, prospective, multicenter (Ile de France) comparative exposed / unexposed category. Each precarious patient will be matched to a non- precarious patient in the same age group, regardless of the center. The study will include any patient resident in Ile de France seeking treatment for breast cancer, regardless of the stage.

To evaluate the attitude of pre menopausal women with breast cancer faced with the risk of loss of fertility caused by chemotherapy using EORTC's Fertility Questionnaire.

Koning Breast CT (KBCT) was approved by FDA PMA. The X-ray detector originally used in Koning Breast CT was PaxScan 4030CB. Recently, Koning Breast CT uses a modified X-ray detector PaxScan 4030MCT. The modified detector is essentially identical to the previous model except a different detector housing which allows a narrower dead-space between the active area and the top of the housing. The benefit of the modified detector is that it allows Koning to modify the patient exam table, achieving a flatter surface in the center. The flatter surface will increase patient comfort and improve workflow. Meanwhile, flatter surface may also affect patient positioning and the coverage of the breast. The adequacy of the overall image quality with the new table/detector should be verified by radiologists.
