NCT05831878
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Disitamab vedotin (RC48-ADC) as salvage treatment in patients with HER2-low advanced breast cancer who have received up to one previous chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic disease without previous use of antibody-drug conjugate.
NCT06525766
This phase II trial evaluates the effect of capecitabine on tumor response using imaging and tumor markers to adjust dose (adaptive therapy) in patients with estrogen receptor (ER) positive, HER2 negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started to other areas in the body (metastatic). Capecitabine is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. It is taken up by tumor cells and breaks down into fluorouracil, a substance that kills tumor cells. Adaptive therapy with capecitabine based on tumor burden response may slow or stop the growth of tumor cells in patients with metastatic ER positive, HER2 negative breast cancer.
NCT05498896
International, randomised, open label, neo-adjuvant phase II trial in women with newly diagnosed, non-metastatic, high-risk (node positive and/or tumour size ≥ 2cm), triple negative breast cancer. The study aims to evaluate the effects of adding ipatasertib to chemotherapy and atezolizumab in patients with and without PI3CA/AKT1/PTEN genetic alterations.
NCT05445908

Part 2(TNBC): The subjects will be randomized to treatment group for SKB264 + KL-A167 or SKB264 . Part 3(HR+/HER2- BC): The subjects will be randomized to treatment group for SKB264 + KL-A167 or SKB264 .
NCT07527741
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a decentralized treatment model on treatment adherence in participants with early-stage human epidermal growth factor receptor 2- positive (HER2+) breast cancer (BC). This study has 2 groups: Group 1: Consistent Travel Burden (Cohorts A, C, and D), will include participants whose adjuvant therapy location does not increase their travel requirements, and Group 2: Increased Travel Burden (Cohort B), will include participants who must travel from a secondary center to a tertiary center to receive their adjuvant therapy.
NCT06500481
This phase III trial compares proton craniospinal irradiation (pCSI) to involved-field radiation therapy (IFRT) for the treatment of breast or non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started to the cerebrospinal fluid filled space that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (leptomeningeal metastasis). Patients with leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) may develop multiple areas of nervous system (neurologic) impairment that can be life-threatening. Radiation therapy (RT) effectively relieves local symptoms due to LM. RT uses high energy radiography (x-rays), particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. IFRT is commonly used to treat symptoms of LM. IFRT is radiation treatment that uses x-rays to treat specific areas of LM and to relieve and/or prevent symptoms. pCSI uses protons that can be directed with more accuracy than x-rays which allows treatment of the entire central nervous system space containing the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), brain, and spinal cord. The pCSI treatment could delay the worsening of LM. Giving pCSI may be better than IFRT in treating LM in patients with breast or non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT05318469
This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ivermectin in combination with balstilimab or pembrolizumab and to see how well they they work in shrinking tumors in patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as balstilimab or pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Ivermectin may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Giving ivermectin with balstilimab or pembrolizumab may increase the effect of balstilimab or pembrolizumab in shrinking tumors in patients with triple negative breast cancer. The secondary objectives of the study include evaluating the following efficacy outcomes: objective response rate (ORR), progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR), clinical benefit rate (CBR), and patients' quality of life (QOL) by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30).
NCT07570524
The goal of this clinical trial is to identify cellular and molecular determinants of response to neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy in women aged 18 or older with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can detailed immune profiling of the tumor and its microenvironment predict pathological complete response (pCR, RCB-0) versus partial/non-response (RCB-I, II, III) to neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy? * Are there specific immune or molecular biomarkers (e.g., TILs, CD3/8/20, FoxP3, PDL1, transcriptomic signatures) associated with progression-free survival and overall survival in this population? Researchers will compare patients achieving pCR (RCB-0) to those with residual disease (RCB-I, II, III) to determine if immune and molecular profiles can discriminate responders from non-responders and guide personalized treatment strategies.
NCT06008158
This phase II trial tests how well accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) delivered once per day works in ensuring an acceptable breast appearance in patients with low risk, hormone responsive breast cancer. APBI uses precise radiation beams to kill cancerous cells in a smaller area of the breast (partial breast) instead of the whole breast or chest area as in standard therapy. Additionally, APBI is given in a shorter course of treatment than whole breast radiation therapy, over fewer days instead of several weeks, with a lower total dose of radiation. APBI is currently given every other business day for a total of 5 treatments with excellent results; however, a shorter treatment duration could have similar or even better results. Undergoing APBI every day on consecutive business days for 5 treatments may result in an improved breast appearance for patients with low risk hormone responsive breast cancer.
NCT04354233
INTRODUCTION: Patients with a metastatic breast cancer suffer from a deteriorated quality of life and numerous symptoms such as pain, severe fatigue and a decrease of their physical fitness. As the feasibility of a physical activity program has been demonstrated in this population, ABLE02 aims to assess the efficacy of a 6 month-physical activity program based on connected devices to improve health-related quality of life and to reduce fatigue in women with metastatic breast cancer. METHODS/ANALYSIS: ABLE02 is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled and, open-label study. 244 patients with a metastatic breast cancer , at least one positive hormone receptor and a first-line chemotherapy planned will be randomly assigned (1:1 ratio) to: (i) the intervention arm to receive physical activity recommendations, an activity tracker to wear 24 hours a day during the whole intervention (6 months) with at least three walking sessions weekly and quizzes to answer each week on physical activity and nutrition (ii) the control arm to receive physical activity recommendations only. Assessments will be conducted at baseline, M3, M6, M12 and M18 to evaluate the clinical, physical, biological and psychological parameters and survival of participants. All questionnaires will be completed on a dedicated application. DISCUSSION: An activity program based on smartphone application linked to an activity tracker may help to improve quality of life and reduce fatigue of patients with a metastatic breast cancer. The growth of e-health offers the opportunity to get real-time data as well as improving patient empowerment in order to change long-term behaviors.
NCT06500455
This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS) to usual care stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with cancer that has spread from where it first started to the brain. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. FSRS delivers a high dose of radiation to the tumor over 3 treatments. SRS is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. FSRS may be more effective compared to SRS in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain.
NCT07561346
Although breast cancer remains one of the most common and fatal cancer types among women worldwide, earlier diagnosis and improved therapeutic approaches have led to decreased mortality over last years. Indeed, the use of HER2-targeted drugs has improved clinical outcomes for patients with HER2 positive breast cancer, while, on the other hand, until recently, little progress has been made for HER2-negative (IHC score 0 and 1+) patients. However, it seems that among these HER2-negative breast cancers, substantial heterogeneity exists regarding the expression of hormone receptors (HR) and HER2. Biomarkers are critical for translating the biological heterogeneity of breast cancer into prognostically and therapeutically useful information. In recent years gene expression profiling and genomic analysis have shown utility in specific clinical scenarios, but immunohistochemistry (IHC) remains the cornerstone of biomarker testing in both early and advanced/metastatic disease. In breast cancer, achieving efficacy with endocrine therapy or with HER2-blockade requires identifying patients whose tumors show significant survival dependency on the therapeutic target. This is achieved by using appropriate biomarkers cut-offs ensuring a favorable benefit-to-toxicity ratio for specific patients. This paradigm has recently been challenged by a new class of HER2 drugs that use target expression not as a direct molecular lever but as a vehicle to deliver potent agents to cancer cells, breaking the straightforward link between the molecular target and the corresponding therapy. These drugs exhibit impressive activity at marker expression levels much lower than those required to effectively block HER2 signaling, shifting the diagnostic focus to the lower end of the staining spectrum, specifically distinguishing between HER2-zero and HER2-low expression. Given the lack of a definitive molecular hallmark for cancers characterized by low HER2 expression, ongoing efforts aim to understand the biology of this heterogeneous group of tumors. This understanding is crucial to triage treatment, investigate resistance mechanisms, and inform potential combination strategies. To enrich the available data, we perform a retrospective analysis of HER2-low patients in a large prospective cohort of early breast cancer patients from Greece enrolled in 7 randomized and observational clinical studies. The study is structured as follows: From each patient with early breast cancer, at least two 2.5mm wide cores are punched from donated FFPE blocks and transferred onto low-throughput TMAs. The cores are selected to enrich for regions with higher tumor nucleated cellularity to facilitate NGS analyses. Each core is assessed for biomarker expression with biomarker cutoffs applied at the core level. A case is considered positive for a biomarker if any of its cores tested positive at the predefined cut-off value. Cases showing any core with HER2 IHC 3+ and/or FISH amplification are excluded from this analysis. The remaining cases (n= 2751) are categorized into HER2-low and HER2-zero. The study aims to investigate whether HER2-low and HER2-zero cases exhibit distinct characteristics, suggesting HER2-low may represent a unique biological subtype. Given the importance of the hormone receptors and the known differential distribution of ER/PgR status between these two HER2 categories, after analyzing the entire population cohort, ER/PgR status will be treated as a confounding variable in the analysis (Luminal vs. TNBC) and the HER2 categories will be compared separately within ER/PR-pos (Luminal) and ER/PR-neg (TNBC) disease. To find out whether intra-tumor discordance of HER-2 is suggestive of true biological heterogeneity we will also consider for the analysis the different HER2 IHC scores between the available cores for each case as well as the distribution of ERBB2 CN data (median of ERBB2 avg copies).
NCT07558733
The study is a Phase 1b/2, multi-center, open-label, dose escalation trial evaluating the safety and preliminary efficacy of sapanisertib and serabelisib (PIKTOR) with fulvestrant and/or other anticancer therapies in participants with HR+/HER2- advanced/metastatic breast cancer.
NCT03218826
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186 when given together with docetaxel in treating patients with solid tumors with PTEN or PIK3CB mutations that have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery. PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, 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. Giving PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186 and docetaxel may work better in treating patients with solid tumors.
NCT05468034
The purpose of this study is to study exercise in a novel population with indolent MBC (no progression on current therapy in prior 12 months and not receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy). The study team hypothesizes that delivering virtual, supervised, progressive intensity aerobic and resistance training exercise for 16 weeks in this population will significantly improve 1) cardiorespiratory fitness, functional status, and sarcopenia (low muscle mass), all established predictors of survival, and 2) patient- reported outcomes.
NCT05705401
This Phase III trial compares the recurrence-free interval (RFI) among patients with early-stage, low risk HER2+ breast cancer who undergo breast conserving surgery and receive HER2-directed therapy, and are randomized to not receive adjuvant breast radiotherapy versus those who are randomized to receive adjuvant radiotherapy per the standard of care.
NCT03417544
This research study is studying a drug called atezolizumab as a possible treatment HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) that has spread to the brain. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Atezolizumab * Pertuzumab * Trastuzumab
NCT07443943
This phase II trial tests the safety and effectiveness of a dietary supplement called resistant potato starch for reducing musculoskeletal symptoms in patients with stage 0-III breast cancer or who are at high risk for breast cancer and are planning to receive treatment with an aromatase inhibitor. Aromatase inhibitors are a type of drug commonly used for the treatment or prevention of breast cancer. Many people who receive aromatase inhibitors experience musculoskeletal symptoms (symptoms relating to bones and muscles, such as joint pain or stiffness). Research has shown there may be an association between reduced levels of beneficial gut bacteria and the development of aromatase inhibitor-associated musculoskeletal symptoms. Resistant potato starch is a plant-based low-digestible carbohydrate that has the potential to promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. Taking resistant potato starch while receiving aromatase inhibitor therapy may reduce musculoskeletal symptoms in patients with stage 0-III breast cancer or individuals at high risk of developing breast cancer.
NCT06434064
This phase II trial tests how well tamoxifen and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin works in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) or that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) and is unable to be operated on (inoperable). Tamoxifen works by blocking the effects of estrogen in the breast. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. Doxorubicin is in a class of medications called anthracyclines. Doxorubicin damages the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. It also blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair. Liposomal doxorubicin is a form of the anticancer drug doxorubicin that is contained inside very tiny, fat-like particles. Liposomal doxorubicin may have fewer side effects and work better than other forms of the drug. Giving tamoxifen and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin together may work better in treating patients with metastatic or inoperable, locally advanced triple negative breast cancer than giving either of these drugs alone.
