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 …
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 …
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., …
Breast cancer is a public health issue with a high incidence among women worldwide, and its prevalence continues to increase each year. A breast cancer diagnosis brings significant physical, emotional, social, economic, and occupational changes. Chemotherapy, one of the most commonly used treatment modalities in cancer therapy, causes various physical …
The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) strongly recommends to develop multigene sequencing in the framework of molecular screening programmes, in order to improve access to innovative drugs and to accelerate clinical research in cancers. Accordingly, this project aims to study the contribution of early systematic multigene sequencing (NGS) discussed …
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and possible harms of treating breast cancer with reirradiation, after breast surgery. The researchers want to find out what effects (good and bad) reirradiation has on people who have already received radiation before surgery.
The purpose of SIBYL is to generate clinical validity data for the ability of a future version of Guardant360 developed by Guardant Health to measure response to systemic therapy in patients with unresectable advanced solid tumors. It is necessary to collect clinical data points and treatment outcomes in order to …
This pilot observational study is being done to identify possible biomarkers of response to endocrine therapy in patients with ER/PR+ metastatic lobular breast cancer (LBC) starting new endocrine therapy. 18F-fluorofuranylnorprogesterone Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (FFNP-PET/CT) and liquid biopsies will be performed at baseline and after 4 weeks of treatment. Baseline …
The chemotherapy medications used for breast cancer treatment are important for achieving a cure, but a potential side effect is that they can cause a decline in functional capacity (reduced exercise tolerance and impaired physical function) and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The risks of decreased functional capacity and …
Accurate evaluation of tumor boundaries in breast-conserving surgery is closely associated with reducing the second operation of patients. Meanwhile, accurately assessing sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastasis is crucial for determining the extent of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and minimizing complications. Near-infrared-II (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging using molecular agents has shown …
