272 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are commonly used for post-menopausal women with hormone-positive breast cancer. Compared to tamoxifen, AIs improve breast cancer recurrence rates and lower 10-year breast cancer mortality. Unfortunately, nearly 2 out of 3 women with estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer treated with AIs experiences AIMSS, such as arthralgia, joint stiffness, and bone pain, and 30% of women with AIMSS report severe pain. AIMSS leads to poor adherence with therapy and discontinuation of therapy in up to 20% of patients. Despite the large number of women affected, current therapeutic interventions have shown only limited efficacy in improving AIMSS. Therefore, the presence of AIMSS may negatively impact breast cancer recurrence and survival. In this current trial, the plan is to utilize topical cannabinoid creams from Vireo Health that have been tested for potency and purity. Two distinct products with different THC/CBD ratios will be provided to patients at no cost; a) a THC-dominant cream (Red XS Balm with 375mg/jar and \<20mg of CBD) and b) a CBD-dominant cream (Violet Balm with 2210mg CBD/jar and \<0.3% THC). The study will explore the feasibility of doing larger, placebo controlled trials by first ensuring adequate patient interest, acceptable tolerability/safety of cream utilization, and preliminary efficacy measures. All patients completing assessments through day 14 will be allowed to choose either Red XS or Violet creams for an additional 2-week extension period.
This phase II trial investigates how well trastuzumab deruxtecan works alone or in combination with anastrozole in treating patients with HER2 low, hormone receptor positive breast cancer. Trastuzumab deruxtecan is a monoclonal antibody, called trastuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug called deruxtecan. Trastuzumab attaches to HER2 expressed at low levels on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers deruxtecan to kill them. Anastrozole works by decreasing estrogen production and suppressing the growth of tumors that need estrogen to grow. This study is evaluating how effective trastuzumab deruxtecan is at treating hormone receptor positive cancer cells that have low levels of HER2 expressed on them when given alone or in combination with anastrozole.
This trial studies how well a text-based intervention works in improving adherence to hormone therapy in patients with stage I-III hormone receptor positive breast cancer. Women often require long term therapy with adjuvant hormone therapy to prevent the cancer from returning and to improve overall survival. Side effects from hormone therapy may prevent some women from staying adherent to their medication therapy. A text-based intervention may provide educational information to breast cancer patients who are undergoing adjuvant hormone therapy.
This research study is evaluating acupuncture, a medical therapy in which hair-thin, stainless steel needles are shallowly inserted into specific points to help the body's natural healing process, as a possible treatment to reduce hot flashes.
This Phase I/Ib study is a Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-Escalation, Safety, Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Study of GZ17-6.02 Monotherapy and in Combination with Capecitabine, Given Orally on a Daily Schedule in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma
This research study is exploring chemotherapy in combination with immunotherapy (a therapy that uses the body's own immune system to control cancer) as a possible treatment for metastatic hormone receptor positive breast cancer.
The investigators propose to conduct a study to test an alternative dosing schedule of palbociclib. With the current three-week on and one week off schedule, a significant number of patients develop grade 3 or higher degree of neutropenia and require dose reduction and sometimes discontinuation. This potentially compromises the efficacy of the drug. In addition, as the half-life of palbociclib is 27 hours, 1 week break with the standard 3 weeks on and 1 week off dosing schedule could potentially lead to recovery of Rb phosphorylation during the off week. Hence, the investigators propose a 5 days on and 2 days off schedule each week without any weeks off drug. Although the cumulative doses each 28-day cycle is roughly the same with this schedule compared to conventional dosing, the bone marrow is not exposed to the drug continuously for 21 days and rather gets frequent breaks from therapy. The investigators hypothesize that the 5 days on and 2 days off schedule is more tolerable with less frequent high grade neutropenia and dose interruption/reduction. In addition, this schedule also provides for a more continuous drug delivery to the patient since there is not a week's break in therapy, which could ultimately prove to be more efficacious.
This research study is exploring chemotherapy in combination with immunotherapy (a therapy that uses the body's own immune system to control cancer) as a possible treatment for hormone receptor positive breast cancer. The interventions involved in this study are: * Pembrolizumab (MK-3475; Keytruda™) * Nab-Paclitaxel (Abraxane
This is a non-randomized, open-label, single-arm, multicenter, phase II study of palbociclib in combination with tamoxifen in women with HR(+)/HER2(-) advanced breast cancer who have not received prior systemic anticancer therapies for their advanced/metastatic disease.
This research study is studying a drug called Palbociclib in combination with Bazedoxifene (a type of endocrine therapy, which prevents breast cancer cell growth by blocking estrogen stimulation) as a possible treatment for this diagnosis. The names of the study interventions involved in this study are: * Palbociclib * Bazedoxifene
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of alisertib when given together with fulvestrant in treating patients with hormone positive breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body or has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes and cannot be removed by surgery. Alisertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Estrogen and progesterone are type of hormones made by the body and they can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen or progesterone the body makes. Giving alisertib together with fulvestrant may be a better treatment for breast cancer.
This randomized phase III trial studies exemestane and entinostat to see how well they work compared to exemestane alone in treating patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or another place in the body (metastatic). Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Endocrine therapy using exemestane may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. Entinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether exemestane is more effective with or without entinostat in treating breast cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well vaccine therapy works in treating patients with stage IV hormone receptor positive breast cancer. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.
The study drug cabozantinib works by inhibiting several different proteins which are believed to be involved in breast cancer tumor growth, its ability to spread, and its ability to form new blood vessels. This drug has been used in other research studies and information from those other research studies suggests that this drug may help to prevent cancer growth. The single agent portion of this study is now closed to accrual. This research study is now examining the efficacy of cabozantinib in combination with fulvestrant for treatment of hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer that has spread to bone.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase I/II study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of GDC-0032. The Phase I portion will be divided into two stages. During Stage 1, GDC-0032 will be administered every day orally and at escalating doses in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. During Stage 2, GDC-0032 will be administered alone or as combination therapy within indication-specific cohorts. In Phase II of the study, the efficacy and safety of the combination GDC-0032 and fulvestrant will be evaluated in post-menopausal female participants with locally advanced or metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate oral doses of BMS-754807 in combination with letrozole or BMS-754807 alone are safe and efficacious in locally advanced or metastatic hormone receptor positive breast cancer subjects who have progressed with prior non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor treatment.
The investigators propose to conduct a Phase I/randomized Phase II study design in order to test the tolerability and efficacy of AZD0530 (also called saracatinib) when used together with anastrozole in therapy for ER+ and/or PR+, postmenopausal breast cancer. The Phase I pharmacokinetic (PK) cohort of the study (cohort A) in postmenopausal women with metastatic breast cancer 2008-2009 showed initial safety,tolerability and good bioavailability of both drugs and determined the doses for use in the ongoing Phase II trial. In the randomized Phase II cohort of the study (cohort B), postmenopausal women with newly diagnosed, previously untreated ER+, HER2 negative breast cancer that is at least 2 cm or more in diameter by clinical exam or radiology will be randomized to either neoadjuvant treatment with anastrozole plus placebo, or anastrozole in combination with AZD0530 (saracatinib). The Phase II cohort will permit extended assays of tolerability, initial estimates of efficacy, and the investigation of molecular predictors of drug efficacy.
This study is being conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of exemestane alone or in combination with pazopanib in postmenopausal women who have hormone receptor positive breast cancer and have failed therapy with tamoxifen, anastrazole or letrozole.
In this study we plan to study the combination of ZD6474, a dual inhibitor of EGFR and VEGFR-2 with anastrozole in the neoadjuvant setting for patients with Stage I-III breast cancer. The aim is to overcome mechanisms of resistance and simultaneously block multiple critical signaling pathways known to stimulate breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the objective response rate of a combination of letrozole (Femara) and bevacizumab (Avastin) given preoperatively to postmenopausal patients with hormone sensitive breast cancer.
This study will determine if hormone receptor positive premenopausal metastatic breast cancer patients who undergo removal of the ovaries in mid-luteal versus mid-follicular phase have a longer survival.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness and safety of fulvestrant in premenopausal women with advanced breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Estrogen and progesterone can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using exemestane may fight breast cancer by reducing the production of estrogen and progesterone. Giving hormone therapy before surgery may shrink the tumor so it can be removed with breast-conserving surgery. Giving hormone therapy after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of neoadjuvant and adjuvant exemestane in treating postmenopausal women who have locally advancedestrogen and/or progesterone receptor-positive breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of BGB-21447 (a B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 inhibitor, Bcl-2i) in combination with fulvestrant, with or without BGB-43395 (cyclin-dependent kinase 4 inhibitor, CDK4i), in adults with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer.
A phase 1 imaging study of 68Ga-R10602 in hormone-receptor positive breast cancer.
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of tirzepatide in achieving a 5% or more body weight reduction in patients undergoing adjuvant treatment for hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative (HR+/Her2-) breast cancer. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of tirzepatide, its feasibility based on discontinuation rates, and completion of treatment. Secondary objectives include evaluating 3-year invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) and distant relapse-free survival (DRFS), changes in BMI and body fat distribution, metabolic markers, and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).
This was a non-interventional (observational), retrospective, cohort study of women with hormone receptor (HR)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor-type 2 (HER2)-negative advanced breast cancer who started treatment with cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKi) 4/6 (ribociclib or palbociclib) in Portugal. This was a study of medication use patterns, based on information from the hospital pharmacies of the participating centers. Patients who started a CDKi 4/6 (ribociclib or palbociclib) between 1 March 2019 and 31 December 2019 were included and followed through 24 months. A follow-up occurred 6 months after the start of CDKi 4/6 (ribociclib or palbociclib) to quantify the occurrence of dose changes.
There is a lack of data on clinical and patient factors that are associated with poor survival in patients with HR+ and HER2-low/negative breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy or endocrine therapy. This retrospective, non-interventional study is designed to assess the predictors of clinical outcomes in this patient population. No study drug will be provided as part of this study protocol.
The aim of this study is to identify the optimal dose for Vosilasarm (EP0062) as monotherapy and in combination with standard-of-care therapies to assess its Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy in Patients with Relapsed Locally Advanced or Metastatic AR+/HER-2-/ER+ Breast Cancer
This is a single-center, open-label, phase I study to assess the safety and efficacy of the oral chemotherapy capecitabine in combination with cemiplimab in patients with hormone-receptor-positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer.
