A Study of the Gut Microbiome in Hormone Receptor-positive HER2-negative Breast Cancer Treated With CDK4/6 Inhibitors
Ciclibiome is a prospective study including BC patients starting treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor (in the metastatic and in the adjuvant setting). This study will focus on the interplay between the gut microbiome (its composition and evolution during treatment), circulating immune, metabolic and cytokine biomarkers (before and during treatment), and …
Quantitative MRI Assessment of Breast Cancer Therapy Response
The goal of this observational study is to investigate and validate multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) modalities for assessment of breast cancer response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in a multi-site and multi-MRI scanner platform setting. This study is conducted at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), University of Washington (UW), and …
A Study to Develop Molecular Integrated Predictive Models of Breast Radio-toxicity (Precise-RTox)
Breast radiation treatment is burdened by acute and chronic toxicities, in most cases mild. However, considering the excellent life expectancy of patients with breast cancer, maintaining a low toxicity profile is of primary importance in order to guarantee a satisfactory quality of life. The definition of the molecular and genetic …
Characterization of Extracellular Vesicles in Breast Cancer Patients
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited particles, naturally released from cells and mediators of intercellular cross-talk. In breast cancer (BC), EVs seem to be involved in the tumor microenvironment's shaping, in cancer cells invasion and in the set-up of metastasis. Clinical studies have provided initial evidence that these vesicles may …
Potential Benefits of Radiotherapy in Prone Position for Breast Cancer Patients: a Planning Study
This study has the purpose to investigate the benefit of treating breast cancer patients in prone position. This treatment is compared to the standard technique in our center (supine position with or without respiratory gating). The investigators want to compare the doses on the organs at risk (heart and lungs) …
Prospective Assessment of Acute Skin Toxicities in Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Retreatment with 40 Gy in 15 Fractions Radiation Therapy
The most common cancer affecting Canadian women is breast cancer, with an estimated 1 in 8 women expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime. Improved screening and treatment have decreased mortality of breast cancer patients, however 14% of cancer-related deaths in Canadian women are still due to …
Breast Cancer Subtype Characterization Through Patient's Derived Organoids.
Development of tools to predict patients chemo-sensitivity and identification of corresponding biomarkers is an urgent challenge for BC patients lacking targeted therapies, such as TNBC, or for patients experiencing relapse after adjuvant chemotherapy or targeted therapies. The refinement of 3D-cultivation techniques, experienced in the last decade, has allowed cultivation of …
Psyco Quality of Life and Procreation BRCA1/2
Women with breast and/or ovarian cancer or with a family history carried these pathologies can makeo genetic counseling in order to investigate whether they are carriers of the BRCA1/2 genetic mutation. This mutation exposes them to develop breast cancer from 50 to 80% and from 27 to 65% of developing …
Evaluation of See.d as an Automated Blood Sample Preparator for Multiple Liquid Biopsy Applications
This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of using See.d instrument and SBS slides for preparation of plasma and cytological samples from whole blood. Forty-five participants will be enrolled (20 healthy volunteers and 25 metastatic breast cancer patients) and each participant will be asked to provide a blood sample.
PET/CT for Trop2 ADC Response Evaluation Cancers
To evaluate whether serial 68Ga-MY6349 PET/CT imaging can serve as a noninvasive biomarker to predict the therapeutic efficacy of Trop2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (Trop2-ADC) therapy in breast cancer patients.
