The purpose of this study is two-fold. First, the investigator will develop a low-literacy Mobile Pain Coping Skills Training (mPCST) protocol for cancer patients with pain (i.e., therapist manual, patient manual including handouts, and the
Our objective is to develop a novel optical assay system for intra operative assessment of tumor margins in partial mastectomy or mastectomy specimens. Our group has previously shown that optical techniques can effectively discriminate betw
The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of MIRA in classifying women with dense breast tissue for supplemental breast MRI. To assess the effectiveness of MIRA for correctly classifying women with breast cancer and to evaluat
This single arm study will evaluate alterations in molecular marker expression in HER2-positive targeted therapy, and will evaluate the effect of continued treatment with Herceptin and Xeloda beyond progression following initial Herceptin-t
The purpose of this study is to determine the cost-effectiveness of biennial screening with mammography and MRI compared to mammography alone in women aged 50-75 years and who show \> 75% mammographic density.
Both in Mexico and in the world, breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. It is estimated that in 2020, 28.2% of the new cancer cases reported in our country correspond to breast cancer, which translates to 30,000 new cases.
Markings placed on the skin are an accurate representation of the underlying surgical cavity and are adequate to use for patient setup for accelerated partial breast irradiation.
Study to compare the prototype tomosynthesis mammography system to the tomosynthesis system slated for commercial release.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer amongst Canadian women. 15-20% of early breast cancers have high levels of a protein called HER2 which is associated with worse survival.
This retrospective study aims to estimate the prevalence of different HER2 expression levels (HER2+, HER2-low, HER2 Ø) in approximately 200 breast cancer patients at FUSCC through the year of 2015 and 3000 breast cancer patients from about
Surgical mesh products, particularly acellular dermal matrices (ADM), are now used by the majority of plastic surgeons to assist with the nearly 100,000 prosthetic breast reconstruction procedures in the United States, despite never being a
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the number of circulating tumor cells (CTC) before and after treatment using an experimental method for detecting CTC, compared to commercial CTC assay results, in patients with prostate, breast or c
This study evaluates the skin and surrounding soft tissue that is removed during an implant reconstruction after a mastectomy.
The purpose of this study is assess the safety of administering repeated doses of IMF-001, a vaccine, to patients with solid tumors that express NY-ESO-1 antigen. If the vaccine is therapeutically useful, a second goal is to establish the m
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of advanced quantitative mass spectometry (Super SILAC) as a discovery platform to uncover novel protein biomarkers in tumor and to compare the protein profile between different subtypes of b
Objective: Evaluate body mass index (BMI), leptin, Leptin/adiponectin (L/A) ratio and cancer antigen (CA) 15-3 together as reliable biomarkers for breast cancer. Patients: Consecutive patients aged between 40 - 60 years, with breast disea
Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequent tumour in women. To date, among the available treatments, the use of Capecitabine, an oral prodrug of fluorouracil, has been shown activity in different setting.
Primary purpose : To develop a method to automatically extract and structure the information included in numerous medical records from breast cancer patients. Secondary purpose : With this procedure we can analyze the content of ten thous
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy plus toripalimab, with or without JS004,as neoadjuvant therapy for patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). TNBC patients were randomly assigned i
The management of patients diagnosed with breast cancer (BC) with axillary nodal involvement is still a controversial topic. These patients' treatment usually involves the administration of a neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in order to impro
