This two-stage adaptive randomized controlled trial evaluates the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of large language model (LLM)-assisted intervention for managing chemotherapy side effects in patients with solid tumors. Adults with histologically confirmed breast or colorectal cancer scheduled for at least 3 months of systemic chemotherapy will be randomly assigned (1:1) …
This study hypothesizes that electroacupuncture combined with self-administered acupressure plus doctor-prescribed treatment is effective in preventing Hand-Foot Syndrome (HFS) caused by capecitabine. It aims to explore the effectiveness of this combined approach in preventing HFS in patients with malignant tumors undergoing oral capecitabine treatment. Further exploration of prevention and treatment …
NEO-NAUTILUS is a prospective, multicenter, randomized phase III clinical trial to evaluate whether omitting axillary lymph node surgery (ALND or SLNB) in clinically lymph node-negative breast cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy is non-inferior to performing SLNB in terms of 5-year disease-free survival.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of BRain-AVOidant proton craniospinal irradiation (BRAVO pCSI) in adult participants with leptomeningeal metastases from solid tumors.
This single arm study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a non-surgical approach, consisting of radiotherapy (RT) alone, for patients who have achieved a complete pathological response (pCR) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). The study design involves the histological confirmation of pCR using vacuum-assisted biopsy (VABB) or vacuum-assisted excision …
This phase II trial tests whether low-dose aspirin can affect markers of inflammation in postpartum (after childbirth) women planning to have a breast biopsy. Chronic inflammation may increase the risk of postpartum related breast cancer. Low-dose aspirin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Giving low-dose aspirin may affect markers of inflammation …
Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) significantly compromises body image in breast cancer patients, particularly when involving eyebrow and eyelash loss (madarosis). While scalp cooling devices are routinely employed to prevent scalp alopecia, no standardized interventions exist for madarosis prevention. This quasi-experimental study assesses the efficacy of targeted eyebrow cryotherapy in reducing anthracycline- …
The metabolism of anticancer drugs is influenced by genetic variants that affect their bioavailability and toxicity. In the case of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), such as sacituzumab-govitecan (SG), trastuzumab-deruxtecan (T-DXd), and datopotamab-deruxtecan (Dato-DXd), the enzyme UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) plays a central role in the glucuronidation and elimination of their cytotoxic components. …
Lymphedema refers to edema caused by insufficient drainage of interstitial fluid through the lymphatic circulation system. It occurs mainly in the upper and lower extremities and causes chronic inflammation, and finally fibrous adipose tissue is replaced. In this study, the'LYMPHA' (Lymphatic microsurgical preventing healing approach) procedure, which connects lymphatic vessels …
The purpose of this study is to see how cancer treatment affects sexual and reproductive function. The patient will also be asked to participate in blood draws to see if and how cancer treatment affects the ovaries and the ability to have children (fertility). These blood draws are optional and …
