Breast cancer clinical trials in Phoenix

This phase III trial compares proton craniospinal irradiation (pCSI) to involved-field radiation therapy (IFRT) for the treatment of breast or non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started to the cerebrospinal fluid filled space that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (leptomeningeal metastasis). Patients with leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) may develop multiple areas of nervous system (neurologic) impairment that can be life-threatening. Radiation therapy (RT) effectively relieves local symptoms due to LM. RT uses high energy radiography (x-rays), particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. IFRT is commonly used to treat symptoms of LM. IFRT is radiation treatment that uses x-rays to treat specific areas of LM and to relieve and/or prevent symptoms. pCSI uses protons that can be directed with more accuracy than x-rays which allows treatment of the entire central nervous system space containing the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), brain, and spinal cord. The pCSI treatment could delay the worsening of LM. Giving pCSI may be better than IFRT in treating LM in patients with breast or non-small cell lung cancer.

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.

A randomized study to determine safety and efficacy of a series of subcutaneous (SC) injections of HAL in patients with CINP, compared to matching placebo injections. After that, subjects may have the option to enter an Open Label extension phase, where available, in which all subjects will receive Halneuron.

A Study of Emi-Le in Participants with Solid Tumors

This is a multi-site clinical study enrolling 2000 newly diagnosed patients with breast, colorectal, melanoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or non-small cell lung cancer, who are planning to receive one or more systemic cancer directed therapies with chemotherapy and/or (immune checkpoint inhibitors) ICIs.

This is a two-part, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and dose expansion study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PDx), and anti- tumor activity of ETX-19477, a novel reversible small molecule inhibitor of PARG.

NRG-CC015 is a prospective, randomized phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of two distinct digital approaches for delivering a mindfulness-based intervention: a live, instructor-led version delivered over Zoom (MAPs LO), and an app-based, self-paced version (MAPs App). Participants will include younger breast cancer survivors (BCS) who were diagnosed with breast cancer at or before age 50 years, have completed their primary cancer treatment (i.e., surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy) at least 6 months earlier, and report elevated depressive symptoms.

This Phase III Trial will determine whether adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) added to ovarian function suppression (OFS) plus endocrine therapy (ET) is superior to OFS plus ET in improving invasive breast cancer-free survival (IBCFS) among premenopausal, early- stage breast cancer (EBC) patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, HER2-negative tumors and 21-gene recurrence score (RS) between 16-25 (for pN0 patients) and 0-25 (for pN1 patients).

PRE-ISPY Phase I/II (I-SPY-P1) is an open-label, multisite platform study with multiple ongoing drug regimen arms added by protocol amendment which is designed to evaluate single agents or combinations in locally advanced, incurable, or metastatic solid tumors and/or oligometastatic malignancy and/or a high risk of recurrence following prior treatment with curative intent. The overall goal is moving promising drug regimens into a larger phase II (or III) trial and in general could feed the neoadjuvant breast I-SPY 2 Trial (NCT01042379) and/or other oncology solid tumor trial in a timely manner.

This ComboMATCH patient screening trial is the gateway to a coordinated set of clinical trials to study cancer treatment directed by genetic testing. Patients with solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and have progressed on at least one line of standard systemic therapy or have no standard treatment that has been shown to prolong overall survival may be candidates for these trials. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with some genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit from treatment that targets that particular genetic mutation. ComboMATCH is designed to match patients to a treatment that may work to control their tumor and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with locally advanced or advanced solid tumors.

This Phase III Trial evaluates whether breast conservation surgery and endocrine therapy results in a non-inferior rate of invasive or non-invasive ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) compared to breast conservation with breast radiation and endocrine therapy.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine PF-07248144 when given along with fulvestrant for the possible treatment of HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer. HR-positive breast cancer cells have proteins on their surface called receptors that bind to hormones like estrogen and progesterone (female sex hormones). These hormones can promote the growth of cancer cells. HER2-negative describes cells that have a small amount or none of a protein called HER2 on their surface. In normal cells, HER2 helps control cell growth. Cancer cells that are HER2-negative may grow more slowly and are less likely to recur (come back) or spread to other parts of the body than cancer cells that have a large amount of HER2 on their surface. Advanced cancer is a term that is often used to describe cancer that is unlikely to be cured. Metastatic cancer is the type where the cancer cells spread from one part of the body to another. This study is seeking for participants whose breast cancer has gotten worsen after receiving cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor-based therapy. Half of participants in this study will receive their usual study treatment, everolimus with endocrine therapy (either exemestane or fulvestrant) for HR-positive/HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer (A/mBC). The study doctor will discuss which hormone therapy is right for the participant before treatment begins. PF-07248144 is a tablet that will be taken by mouth at home every day in a 28-day cycle. Fulvestrant will be given as two injections (one injection in the buttock) at visits to the study clinic. Everolimus and exemestane are also tablets and will be taken by mouth at home every day in a 28-day cycle. The study will compare the experiences of people receiving PF-07248144 in combination with fulvestrant to those of the people who do not. This will help see if PF-07248144 in combination with fulvestrant is safe and effective.

This phase III trial compares the effect of continuation of treatment with pembrolizumab (usual approach) to observation only at preventing cancer from coming back in patients with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who achieved a pathologic complete response after preoperative chemotherapy in combination with pembrolizumab. The usual approach for patients with early-stage TNBC who receive preoperative chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab is to continue to receive pembrolizumab for up to 27 weeks after surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This trial may help researchers determine if observation is as good as receiving pembrolizumab for 27 weeks after surgery in triple-negative breast cancer patients who achieved a pathologic complete response after preoperative treatment with chemotherapy and pembrolizumab.

The efficacy and safety of zanidatamab in combination with physician's choice of chemotherapy compared with trastuzumab in combination with physician's choice of chemotherapy will be evaluated for the treatment of participants with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who have progressed on, or are intolerant to, previous T-DXd treatment.

This randomized research trial studies how well serum tumor marker directed disease monitoring works in monitoring patients with hormone receptor positive Her2 negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Using markers to prompt when scans should be ordered may be as good as the usual approach to monitoring disease.

The purpose of this study is to test whether four different supportive care programs can reduce fatigue in women with advanced or metastatic breast cancer who are receiving a medication called a CDK4/6 inhibitor (palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib) alongwith endocrine therapy with or without a PI3K or AKT inhibitor.

The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the addition of Tersolisib (LY4064809/STX-478) to other anti-cancer drugs as first treatment for advanced hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer. Participants can remain in the study as long as the drug is helping the cancer without unbearable side effects.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer that spreads beyond the initial layer of tissue it developed in, and grows into surrounding healthy tissue in women worldwide. It is associated with significant illness and death. Identifying the disease in the early stage is important to achieving positive outcomes in response to diagnosis and treatment. The Syantra blood test has been developed over the past 10 years. This test involves examining blood samples to identify and analyze specific information. This information is run through a software program that then potentially identifies the presence of breast cancer in the blood sample. This test has the potential to increase early stage detection of breast cancer. The main goal of this study is to figure out how well the Syantra blood test identifies the presence of breast cancer in women 30-75 years of age. The study will also look at whether things like ethnicity, geography and certain individual characteristics (including breast density and elevated risk of breast cancer development) have an effect on how well the test works. This study will recruit women who are attending a visit at the site who are aged 30-75 who are undergoing testing for the presence of breast cancer as part of their regular screening or planned follow up imaging and/or biopsy. Participants who provide consent and meet eligibility criteria will complete a baseline questionnaire and have their blood drawn before any scheduled procedures. Relevant information will be collected from their medical record at the time of joining the study and will be reviewed and updated within 60 days and then again at 12 months following the baseline blood draw. Participants will not have to do anything after the initial visit where they may sign consent, complete the intake questionnaire and have their blood drawn.

The investigators are interested in finding out how Prolonged Nightly Fasting (PNF) and/or health education may impact health and cancer recovery for breast cancer patients and survivors.

This study will include two groups of patients: Cohort 1 and Cohort 2. Cohort 1: will help researchers learn how a medicine called imlunestrant (LY3484356) affects a specific type of breast cancer. Some patients will take both imlunestrant and another treatment to suppress their ovarian function. Some will take it without ovarian suppression. Researchers will compare the effects in breast cancer cells to those of another medicine called tamoxifen. All patients in this group will be premenopausal women who have a type of early breast cancer called estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative. The treatment in this group will last for up to 29 days. Cohort 2: will help researchers understand how imlunestrant affects the ovaries when it is taken without ovarian suppression. Researchers will compare the effects to those of another medicine called tamoxifen. This group will also include premenopausal women with the same type of breast cancer. The treatment in this group will last for up to 6 months.
