Tailored Axillary Surgery With or Without Axillary Lymph Node Dissection Followed by Radiotherapy in Patients With Clinically Node-positive Breast Cancer (TAXIS)
NCT03513614
Recruiting
RATIONALE: The use of tailored axillary dissection as a tailored procedure will avoid surgical overtreatment by selectively removing the lymph nodes that are affected by the cancer, thereby sparing many women the unnecessary complications of a radical surgery, providing a better quality of life while keeping the same efficacy. PURPOSE: The phase III trial is evaluating the optimal treatment for breast cancer patients in terms of surgery and radiotherapy.

Evaluation of the Protective Efficacy of TV003 or Previous Zika Infection Against Infection With ZIKV-SJRP Challenge Compared to DENV and ZIKV-naïve Controls Against Infection With ZIKV-SJRP Challenge
NCT06805487
Recruiting
Zika virus (ZIKV) is an illness people can get from mosquitoes. The infection is generally mild with symptoms that include a fever, rash, red eyes, and joint pain, though most of those infected have no symptoms. Preventing ZIKV is important because if a pregnant person is infected with ZIKV, it can cause birth defects in their unborn child. The goals of this study are to find out if people who have already been infected with one type of ZIKV can get infected with ZIKV a second time, and to test... Read More
