A Pilot Study of Total-body PET Using FDA-approved Radiotracers Beyond 18F-FDG
The purpose of this research study is to test new ways to improve the usefulness of the world's first total-body positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scanner (EXPLORER) by collecting data from PET scans using one of three different imaging agents: 18F-PSMA; 18F-FES; or, 68Ga DOTATATE. These imaging agents are …
Nicotinamide Riboside and Prevention of Cancer Therapy Related Cardiac Dysfunction in Breast Cancer Patients
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women. Modern breast cancer treatments have led to increased survival, but at the same time, increased risk for cardiotoxicity and development of heart failure. In this study, the investigators want to evaluate whether nicotinamide riboside can prevent cancer-related cardiac dysfunction …
Metastases Directed Therapy for Oligometastatic Breast Cancer
This is a phase III randomized study evaluating the benefit from adding metastases directed therapy and locoregional treatment of the primary in breast cancer patients diagnosed with de novo oligometastatic disease patients will be randomized to receive the standard of care (SOC) treatment vs. systemic treatment + Stereotactic Ablative Radiation …
Breast Cancer Long-term Outcomes on Cardiac Functioning: a Longitudinal Study
Rationale: In addition to surgery, effective breast cancer (BC) treatment typically requires chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or both. However, it is still unclear whether patients with BC are at increased risk of long-term cardiac dysfunction due to the adverse effects of these therapies. In a cross-sectional study in primary care, a comparison …
DIEP Flap Breast Reconstruction: Perioperative Biomarkers and Outcomes
Brief Summary This observational study will follow patients who undergo DIEP flap breast reconstruction to better understand a common surgical challenge called ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. I/R injury can happen when a flap has a period without blood flow (ischemia) and then blood flow returns (reperfusion). This process may trigger inflammation …
4FMFES-PET Imaging of ER+ Advanced Breast Cancers
Estrogen Receptor (ER) is a crucial prognostic factor and treatment target in breast cancer patients. Knowledge of its status greatly influences the choice of the optimal course of treatment. Pathological evaluations of primary tumor, axillary nodes, and metastases are the only confirmatory approach to ER status determination and are limited …
HER2-PET Imaging in HER2-low Breast Cancers
A strategy to target the oncogenic receptor HER2 using a version of the anti-HER2 therapeutic antibody trastuzumab coupled to desferrioxamine (DFO) and radiolabeled with zirconium-89 (\[89Zr\]-DFO-trastuzumab) has been successfully evaluated in our group in preclinical settings. Clinical studies by other groups in recent years have shown the potential of targeting …
Targeted Resection of Axillary Metastatic Lymph Nodes After Breast Cancer Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy
This study evaluates the efficacy and feasibility of Carbon Nanoparticle Suspension Injection (CNSI) for Targeted Axillary Dissection (TAD) in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), compared to traditional clip-based methods. By leveraging CNSI's enhanced visibility and stability, the study aims to improve the precision of lymph node removal, reduce …
BostonGene and Exigent Genomic INsight Study
The BEGIN Study by BostonGene and Exigent Genomic INsight evaluates the efficacy of comprehensive molecular testing in advanced cancer patients. Using the BostonGene Tumor Portrait test, the study aims to identify actionable findings, assess feasibility, and determine patient enrollment in clinical trials. Four cohorts of 100 patients each will be …
Psychoneurological Symptom Cluster in Oncology
A psychoneurological symptom cluster is increasingly documented in oncology. It is composed of cancer-related fatigue, sleep difficulties, pain, emotional distress, and cognitive difficulties. These symptoms are linked by strong but complex relationships, and reinforce each other, negatively impacting patients' quality of life and survival. The configuration of this cluster (i.e., …
