Breakthrough Medication
The purpose of this pilot intervention study is to test the effectiveness of a self-management approach (combining education- and exercise-based strategies) for improving arthralgia (joint pain) associated with Aromatase Inhibitors (AI) in older breast cancer survivors. Survivors will be recruited from local cancer clinics prior to the completion of primary cancer treatment, as arthralgia can occur soon after initiating AI medication. Participants will be randomized to one of two groups: an enhanced standard care group (AI prescription plus information) or a treatment group (educational classes plus group exercise sessions). Older survivors (≥60 years) will be targeted because they are at increased risk of medication complications which may impede adherence. For the baseline assessment, a cancer-specific geriatric assessment will be conducted and a blood sample will be collected to interpret the effects of the self-management study in the context of geriatric experiences. Additionally, there will be an assessment of knowledge, PA habits, and AI-related joint pain and AI adherence. These will be measured again at 4, 6 and at follow up at 12 months.

Hormone Therapy for Breast Cancer

Greensboro, North Carolina
RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using triptorelin, exemestane, and tamoxifen may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen. It is not yet known whether giving triptorelin together with exemestane is more effective than triptorelin and tamoxifen in treating hormone-responsive breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying triptorelin and exemestane to see how well they work compared to triptorelin and tamoxifen in treating premenopausal women with hormone-responsive breast cancer.

RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast tumor cells. Ovarian function suppression combined with hormone therapy using tamoxifen or exemestane may fight breast cancer by reducing the production of estrogen. It is not yet known whether suppression of ovarian function plus either tamoxifen or exemestane is more effective than tamoxifen alone in preventing the recurrence of hormone-responsive breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial studies ovarian suppression with either tamoxifen or exemestane to see how well they work compared to tamoxifen alone in treating premenopausal women who have undergone surgery for hormone-responsive breast cancer.

This phase I trial studies the effects (good and bad) of adding copanlisib to the usual therapy of fulvestrant and abemaciclib in treating patients with hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (breast) to other places in the body (metastatic). Some breast cancer cells have receptors for the hormones estrogen or progesterone. These cells are hormone receptor positive and they need estrogen or progesterone to grow. This can affect how the cancer is treated. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. Abemaciclib and copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Adding copanlisib to the usual therapy of fulvestrant and abemaciclib may work better than giving fulvestrant and abemaciclib alone in treating patients with breast cancer.

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy affecting women in the US. Surgical management is the mainstay of therapy, and in general consists of resection of the primary tumor with either a partial mastectomy (aka "lumpectomy") or a total mastectomy. The investigators hypothesize that routine shave margins during partial mastectomy will significantly reduce positive margin rate. A positive margin means that cancerous cells were detected at the edge of the excised area. This generally mandates a return to the operating room for re-excision.

This study is designed to see if we can lower the chance of side effects from radiation in patients with breast, kidney, small cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma that has spread to the brain and who are also being treated with immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. This study will compare the usual care treatment of single fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SSRS) given on one day versus fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS), which is a lower dose of radiation given over a few days to determine if FSRS is better or worse at reducing side effects than usual care treatment.

Intratumoral Microdosing for Cancer

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
This trial uses a device to inject small amounts of cancer drugs directly into tumors of patients undergoing surgery. The device marks where each drug is injected, allowing researchers to see how different parts of the tumor respond. This helps test cancer drugs early without causing widespread side effects. The device has been shown to induce strong, easily tracked, drug-specific responses in tumors while avoiding toxicity, setting the stage for its application in clinical trials.

Why Other Patients Applied

"My mom has cholangiocarcinoma with bone mts (FGFR2 mutation). She really needs this trial to survive. She’s active and her analysis is ok, but we have very limited other options. Hope to work with a high-quality clinic to prolong her quality and duration of life."

Cholangiocarcinoma PatientAge: 54

"I've tried chemotherapy and radiation but the cancer recurred. My oncologist suggested that I might want to try a clinical trial given my situation. Just starting to research, hoping to learn more."

FR
Lung Cancer PatientAge: 71

"I've had radiation and as far as I know I’m in remission, but my brother passed away with the same condition. I don’t mind helping research for a cure... my husband passed away with pancreatic cancer. I've had a stepdaughter that passed away with ovarian cancer at 20. I just think it’s time to knock cancer out! I'd really like to help find better treatments by participating in a trial."

EQ
Lung Cancer PatientAge: 70

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

ID
Pancreatic Cancer PatientAge: 40

"I had two chemotherapy regímens without success, three surgeries during which the tumor could not be resected. These clinical trials are a light of hope for me and my family (I have a five year old child) and I have read about cases of success in other types of cancer with this treatment. I think that I am a perfect candidate for this tríal. Thank you."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Breast Cancer clinical trials in High Point, NC pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Breast Cancer clinical trials in High Point, NC work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Breast Cancer trials in High Point, NC 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in High Point, NC for Breast Cancer is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in High Point, NC several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Breast Cancer medical study in High Point, NC?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Breast Cancer clinical trials in High Point, NC?

Most recently, we added Low Dose Tamoxifen for Breast Cancer, Physical Activity Program for Breast and Colon Cancer Survivors and Cognitive Training for Breast Cancer Survivors to the Power online platform.
