This clinical trial studies the physical function and quality-of-life before and after surgery in patients with stage I cervical cancer. Studying quality-of-life in patients undergoing surgery for cervical cancer may help determine the intermediate-term and long-term effects of surgery.

This clinical trial assesses the change in lymphatic structure from placement of an intravenous (IV) line and fluid administration using a diagnostic agent, indocyanine green (ICG), with SPY (Trademark) angiography in breast cancer patients at risk for breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). Patients that are diagnosed with breast cancer with lymph node involvement often undergo treatment that includes surgery to remove the axillary nodes and radiation. Unfortunately, this procedure increases the incidence of BCRL in the surgical arm, as well as other problems including heaviness of the arm, fibrotic skin changes, and an increase in infection risk. Because of these symptoms, venipuncture (blood draw) is often avoided in these arms. Researchers want to show that placement of an IV line and fluid administration in patients at risk for BCRL will indeed not alter the lymphatic structure of the arm and will not change the incidence of BCRL by administering indocyanine green (ICG) dye to patients and assessing their arm lymphatics. ICG is a fluorescent dye that is able to be visualized by the SPY angiography imaging system as it travels through the lymphatic system, allowing researchers to assess how well blood flows throughout the body. Receiving ICG and undergoing SPY angiography may be effective in showing that placement of an IV and fluid administration in breast cancer patients at risk for BCRL will not alter the lymphatic structure of their arm and will not change the incidence of BCRL.

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women. Removal of the breast, called "mastectomy", is performed either when there is cancer-or an increased risk of cancer-in the breast. This can result in a lot of pain during the months after surgery. Opioids-"narcotics"-are the most common pain control method provided to patients; but they frequently do not relieve enough pain, have undesirable side effects like vomiting and constipation, and are sometimes misused which can lead to addiction. Mastectomy also frequently results in long-term pain which can interfere with physical and emotional functioning; and the more pain patients have immediately after surgery, the greater the risk of developing long-term pain. Numbing the nerves with local anesthetic can decrease the amount of short- and long-term pain experienced by patients, but even the longest types of these nerve blocks last for hours or days, and not the 1-2 months of pain typically following mastectomy. So, there is reason to believe that if the nerve blocks could be extended so that they last longer than the pain from surgery, short- and long-term pain might be avoided completely without the need for opioids. A prolonged nerve block may be provided by freezing the nerve using a technique called "cryoneurolysis". With cryoneurolysis and ultrasound machines, a small needle-like "probe" may be placed through anesthetized skin and guided to the target nerve to allow freezing. The procedure takes about 5 minutes for each nerve, involves little discomfort, has no side effects, and cannot be misused or become addictive. After 2-3 months, the nerve returns to normal functioning. The investigators have completed a small study suggesting that a single cryoneurolysis treatment may provide potent pain relief after mastectomy. The ultimate objectives of the proposed research study are to determine if temporarily freezing the nerves that go to the breast will decrease short-term pain, opioid use, physical and emotional dysfunction, and long-term pain following mastectomy when added to current and customary postoperative analgesics. The current project is a pragmatic, multicenter, randomized, triple-masked (investigators, participants, statisticians), sham/placebo-controlled, parallel-arm, human-subjects, post-market clinical trial to determine if cryoneurolysis is an effective non-opioid treatment for pain following mastectomy.

Upfront TAD/SNB for Breast Cancer

Los Angeles, California
The purpose of the study is to determine the recurrence rates and survival of patients with clinical T1-2N0 ER+/Her2- invasive breast cancer who have biopsy proven image detected nodal disease treated with upfront lumpectomy or mastectomy with TAD followed by adjuvant therapy. This is a prospective, single arm phase II clinical trial. Patients will be screened and enrolled per eligibility criteria. Patient, tumor, and treatment data will be documented.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the Symani System's safety and effectiveness for microsurgical anastomosis during free tissue transfer surgery and lymphovenous anastomosis surgery. The primary endpoints are: * Effectiveness- Rate of intraoperative anastomosis patency at first attempt. * Safety- Freedom from device-related adverse events. Participants will receive treatment as standard of care and be asked to: * Allow the researchers to access and use their information. * If participants are undergoing a lymphedema procedure, they will be asked to undergo a questionnaire as part of the study. * Participants will be asked to comply with the follow-up visits and complete all study procedures/questionnaires as outlined in the protocol.

"I've tried several different SSRIs over the past 23 years with no luck. Some of these new treatments seem interesting... haven't tried anything like them before. I really hope that one could work."

"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."

"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."
