Background Breast cancer and lung cancer belong to the most common types of solid cancer in Europe and Northern America. The majority of breast cancer patients receive adjuvant radiotherapy, either following breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy. And most patients with small-cell lung cancer

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the dose limiting toxicities and maximum tolerated dose of olaparib given in combination with chest wall hyperthermia in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer with chest wall recurrences who have wild-type BRCA status (patients with germline

Group A, FECStandard(standard FEC) is given 7 courses of 5-fluorouracil-epirubicin (Farmorubicin)-cyclophosphamide with doses based on the patient's surface area. Leukocyte nadir values at day 10, 12 or 13 and 15 are measured. Dose-reductions of one step according to table 8.2.1 are performed in

Advances in systemic treatment led to improved overall survival in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Various studies suggest that by obtaining loco-regional control, overall survival in advanced disease can further be improved. Pre-operative chemotherapy can be used in metastatic breast cancer

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To estimate the safety and tolerability (adverse event rate) of the combination of palbociclib and letrozole or fulvestrant in adults age 70 or older with estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To describe the full toxicity

This study is to enroll 30 patients in each type of cancer. Each patient will be vaccinated with P.vivax-infected red blood cells containing approximately 0.1-1.0 × 10^7 Plasmodium parasites and be observed for the exact infection time, parasitemia condition and infection course; principal clinical

Patients who fit the eligibility criteria will be screened for the trial. Patients who consent to participate in the trial will be registered into the trial prior to the start of chemotherapy. Patient registration / randomization procedure After completion of staging, the patient is informed about

This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled phase III trial of aspirin (300 mg daily) in early stage node-positive HER2 negative breast cancer patients. Patients will be randomized 1:1 within stratum defined by: Hormone Receptor status (HR positive vs HR negative), body mass index (<30 vs ≥

Locoregional recurrence of breast cancer (LRR) after mastectomy is a clinically challenging problem. Between 5% and 35% of women with operable breast cancer will experience an isolated LRR following their primary treatment, usually within 5 years of initial mastectomy. LRR or LR typically causes

1. Introduction to investigational treatment(s) and other study treatment(s) 1.1 Overview of gemcitabine Gemcitabine (29,29-difluoro 29-deoxycytidine, dFdC) which developed from cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) is an nucleoside analog used as chemotherapy. It was intended as an antiviral drug in

Methods: Patients will be recruited just after surgery scheduling. They will undergo preoperative evaluation one week before the surgery on average. At this moment, preoperative analysis will be conducted with personal data and medical history. Patients will undergo new assessments 07, 15, 30, 60,

Background Lung cancer remains a major cause of cancer morbidity and mortality. In Denmark, the incidence has shown a slight, but robust decrease over the last 10 years in males, but the incidence in females continues to increase. The relative survival at 5 years is only 11% for men and 15% for

Despite a declining incidence in many developed countries, gastric cancer remains the second most common cause of cancer deaths, and it is responsible for about 12% of all cancer-related deaths worldwide. More than two-thirds of patients diagnosed with gastric cancer will have unresectable disease

The immune system plays an important role in the fight against cancer. According to certain studies, Levels of cytokines secreted by the immune cells were found as predictors of prognosis and survival among cancer patients, as well as disease recurrence1. Pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6,
