NCT01249443
This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of vorinostat when given together with paclitaxel and carboplatin in treating patients with metastatic or recurrent solid tumors and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving vorinostat together with paclitaxel and carboplatin may kill more tumor cells. NOTE: An administrative decision was made by NCI to halt further study of vorinostat in this specific patient population as of February 1, 2013. No patients remain on vorinostat. Going forward this study will determine the safety and tolerability of the paclitaxel and carboplatin combination in this patient population.
NCT00892515
RATIONALE: Exercise may change the risk of developing breast cancer. It is not yet known whether low-intensity exercise or high-intensity exercise is more effective in lowering the risk of breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well exercise programs work in healthy young women at increased risk of developing breast cancer.
NCT02559362
The goal of the study is to establish the feasibility/willingness of breast cancer patients to delay surgery to do an exercise program, or be randomized to an exercise training program following treatment, and to see if that willingness correlates with prior physical activity history.
NCT01320592
This study is a phase I, single arm, open-label trial of PD0332991 in combination with Paclitaxel in patients with Rb-expressing metastatic breast cancer. Up to 20 patients are anticipated to be enrolled to reach the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of PD0332991 in combination with Paclitaxel. Once the MTD is established, an additional expanded cohort of 10 patients will be enrolled at that dose to establish the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D), obtain additional safety data and perform exploratory biomarker studies.
NCT01292772
The primary objective of this study is to use LR imaging to evaluate the effects of adjuvant radiation therapy on reconstructed breasts.
NCT02597452
The primary purpose of this study is to measure the clinical utility (accuracy) of the hand-held breast scanner (iBE) for the detection of breast lesions or lumps. The iBE results will be compared to the results of a current mammogram and/or ultrasound. The duration of study participation is approximately 30 minutes one day.
NCT02514486
This study will describe patient-reported symptom burden and concerns, quality of life (QOL), and health behaviors of breast cancer(BC) survivors who have completed initial treatments (e.g., surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiotherapy), assess the feasibility of using a web-based platform to collect patient-reported outcome (PRO) data, and evaluate provider satisfaction following delivery of an electronic health record (HER)/EPIC summary of these PROs. Secondary aims will estimate differences in referral to available services between those providers exposed to the PRO summary and historical controls. BC survivors who have completed initial treatment and present within the first year following treatment for an end of treatment (EOT)/survivorship focused visit will be the focus of this study.
NCT01386697
The overall objective is to estimate the actual or potential benefit of deep inspiration breath holding (DIBH) treatment in the context of proton radiotherapy as compared to 3 dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) and intensity-modulated x-ray therapy (IMXT), as it relates to variability in tumor localization, treatment margins, target volume definition, doses to organs at risk and variations with treatment planning.
NCT02830282
This is a nested multicenter, prospective cohort study within the I-SPY 2 TRIAL for women undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy for primary breast cancer who are also undergoing definitive surgical resection and have clinical or radiographic evidence of residual tumor at the completion of chemotherapy.
NCT02605915
This is a Phase Ib, open-label, two-stage study with two active regimens in each stage designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of combination treatment with atezolizumab, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab (with and without docetaxel) or atezolizumab and trastuzumab emtansine in participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and locally advanced early breast cancer (EBC), and atezolizumab with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide in HER2-negative breast cancer.
NCT00079157
RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving a vaccine with Montanide ISA-51 and sargramostim may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy when given together with Montanide ISA-51 and sargramostim in treating patients with stage IV breast cancer.
NCT01985971
To estimate the presence of hypoxia in individual lesions after radiotherapy in patients with brain metastases from breast cancer as identified by F18 EF5 PET/CT imaging.
NCT00684983
This phase II trial studies capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate to see how well they work compared with capecitabine, lapatinib ditosylate, and cixutumumab in treating patients with previously treated HER2-positive stage IIIB-IV breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Lapatinib ditosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with cixutumumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate are more effective when given with or without cixutumumab in treating breast cancer that has spread nearby or to other areas of the body.
NCT02202746
The purpose of this study is to determine whether lucitanib is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with FGF aberrant metastatic breast cancer, as well as in the treatment of patients with biomarker negative (FGF non-aberrant) metastatic breast cancer.
NCT02223052
This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, randomized, 2-stage crossover study consisting of 2 phases: Stage I - Pharmacokinetics (Bioequivalence), with an Extension Stage II - Pharmacokinetics (Food Effect) with an Extension This study will enroll approximately 60 subjects in stage I and 60 subjects in stage II with hematologic or solid tumor malignancies, excluding gastrointestinal tumors and tumors that have originated or metastasized to the liver for which no standard treatment exists or have progressed or recurred following prior therapy. Subjects must not be eligible for therapy of higher curative potential where an alternative treatment has been shown to prolong survival in an analogous population. Approximately 23 sites in the US and 2 in Canada will participate in this study.
NCT02441946
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the biological effects of abemaciclib in combination with anastrozole and compare those to the effects of abemaciclib alone and anastrozole alone in the tumors of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer.
NCT00524277
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express HER2/neu. Biological therapies, such as GM-CSF, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. It is not yet known whether vaccine therapy is more effective than GM-CSF in treating breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying vaccine therapy to see how well it works compared with GM-CSF in treating patients with breast cancer.
NCT00274768
