Breast Cancer Paid Clinical Trials in Massachusetts

This is a Phase 1/2 dose escalation and cohort expansion study and will assess the safety, tolerability and anti-tumor activity of ARV-471 alone and in combination with palbociclib (IBRANCE®) in patients with estrogen receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (ER+/HER2-) locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, who have received prior hormonal therapy and chemotherapy in the locally advanced/metastatic setting.

The clinical trial is a phase 1, single-arm trial that will evaluate the safety of the investigational treatment on metastatic cancer in patients who have a deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 genetic alteration. The investigational treatment will involve 2 cycles of a combination of intravenous melphalan, BCNU, low-dose I.V. ethanol, vitamin B12b, and vitamin C in association with autologous hematopoietic stem cell infusion. A dose-escalation schedule will be employed for vitamin C. Read Less

This research study is being done to monitor common symptoms and behavior, and to provide supportive care information and peer support, as well as research opportunities for young women ages of 18-39 years old who have been diagnosed with stage 0-IV stage breast cancer using a web-based portal (YES), built for smartphones, tablets, and computers.

This trial is a first-in-human, open label, multi-center, dose escalation phase 1a study followed by a disease-specific dose expansion phase 1b study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of IMM2902, a HER2/SIRPα bispecific mAb-Trap antibody-receptor fusion protein, in patients with HER2-expressing advanced solid tumor.

To assess the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of PF-07104091 and to estimate the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or select the Recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for PF-07104091 as a single agent in participants with advanced or metastatic small cell lung, breast and ovarian cancers.

Study of NGM707 as Monotherapy and in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumor Malignancies Read Less

A Phase I-II, First-in-Human Study of SKB264 in Patients with Locally Advanced Unresectable/Metastatic Solid Tumors who are refractory to Available Standard Therapies. Patient must have historically documented, incurable, locally advanced or metastatic cancer that are refractory to standard therapies of one of the following types: Triple negative breast cancer Epithelial ovarian cancer Non-small cell lung cancer Gastric adenocarcinoma/Gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma Small cell lung cancer HR+/ HER2-breast cancer Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma Endometrial carcinoma Urothelial carcinoma Read Less

Mechanistic data show that compounds in fruits and vegetables have anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic properties that can reduce breast cancer risk. However, observational and interventional studies have provided mixed results, and a recent report by the American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) concludes that the data are insufficient but suggestive that non-starchy vegetables and foods containing carotenoids reduce risk. Measurement error, relatively low levels of carotenoid-rich fruit and vegetable intake in the study populations, emphasis on diet in later adulthood, and confounding factors likely contribute to the weak associations. Therefore, the investigators will conduct a randomized diet intervention trial in young women to assess the extent to which at least 8 to 10 daily servings of deeply pigmented and nutrient dense fruits and vegetables reduces biomarkers of breast cancer risk. The intervention is focused on breastfeeding women because: 1) pregnancy and lactation are normal early life course events; 2) the risk of pregnancy-associated breast cancer (PABC) is increased for up to 10 years postpartum; 3) a dietary intervention to reverse the detrimental molecular changes associated with puberty and pregnancy is more likely to be successful in younger than in older women;4) a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is hypothesized to reduce the inflammation during lactation/weaning and lower PABC risk; 5) postpartum lactating women may be a highly motivated population; and 6) breastmilk provides access to the breast microenvironment and breast epithelial cells to non-invasively assess the diet intervention directly in the breast. Four hundred nursing mothers will be randomly assigned to either the intervention arm, in which they are asked to increase fruit and vegetable intake to at least 8 to 10 daily servings for one year, or to a control condition in which participants receive a dietary guideline for breastfeeding mothers. Women in the intervention arm will receive counseling and boxes of fruits and vegetables for the first 20 weeks, after which they will continue to receive counseling. Changes in DNA methylation and cytokine profiles in breastmilk will be evaluated. Maternal weight and body fat distribution, and infant growth will be monitored. These results will greatly expand our knowledge of how diet alters molecular pathways in a specific organ, ultimately contributing to both breast cancer etiology and prevention. Read Less

This clinical trial compares a web-based patient-reported symptom monitoring and self management portal, Young, Empowered & Strong (YES), to standard therapy in managing symptoms in adolescent and young adults breast cancer survivors. YES is a web-based portal (website) to help monitor issues or symptoms women with breast cancer may experience. YES portal may improve the quality of life of young breast cancer survivors. YES portal may help manage symptoms and provide useful information/resources. Read Less

This trial will determine the clinical effectiveness of polygenic risk score testing among patients at high genetic risk for at least one of six diseases (coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, type 2 diabetes mellitus, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, or prostate cancer), measured by time-to-diagnosis of prevalent or incident disease over 24 months.

This research is studying a new investigative imaging instrument called a nonlinear microscope (NLM). A nonlinear microscope can produce images similar to an ordinary pathologist's microscope, but without first processing tissue to make slides. This study will determine if a NLM can be used to evaluate tissue during lumpectomy surgery for breast cancer in order to reduce the probability that standard pathologic examination of the specimen after the end of the operation will find close or positive margins, thus possibly requiring the patient to have additional breast surgery.

This is a Phase 3, open-label, randomized, clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of gedatolisib plus fulvestrant with or without palbociclib for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer following progression on or after CDK4/6 and aromatase inhibitor therapy. Condition or disease: Breast Cancer Intervention/treatment: Drug: Gedatolisib Drug: Palbociclib Drug: Fulvestrant Drug: Alpelisib Phase 3 Read Less
