4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of high-dose sequential chemotherapy as adjuvant therapy in treating patients with stage II or stage III breast cancer who have four or more positive axillary lymph nodes.
This is a pilot study. The main purposes for doing the study are to see if there is a relationship between lumpectomy volume and position as measured by USEI and by CT. This is not a study to see if the use of USEI is better than the current method of using CT for daily radiation therapy positioning.
This is an open label, multicenter, single arm phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ribociclib and ET in patients with locoregional recurrence of HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using exemestane may fight breast cancer by reducing the production of estrogen by the tumor cells. It is not yet known whether exemestane is effective in preventing the recurrence of breast cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of exemestane in preventing cancer recurrence in postmenopausal women who have resected stage I, stage II, or stage IIIA breast cancer and have completed 5 years of tamoxifen.
