The purpose of this registry is to keep track of people who are undergoing therapy for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and who are having molecular testing known as DCISionRT. A Registry is a databank of people who have something in common. Molecular testing looks at how certain genes are used by your tumor cells. The goal of this Registry is to help…
The Department of Occupational Therapy at Columbia University will be conducting research to understand the impact of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) on performing everyday activities, like bathing and making meals, for women diagnosed with breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to understand how functional performance is impacted by the use of AIs, and its…
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the JenaValve Pericardial TAVR system when treating patients with aortic regurgitation. Aortic Regurgitation is a condition that develops when the heart's aortic valve does close tightly, therefore the blood leaks back into the heart chamber. The JenaValve Pericardial TAVR system will…
The high incidence and variety of conduction disturbances post-TAVR represents a major challenge in the periprocedural management of TAVR recipients. Despite the growing body of knowledge on this topic, the large variability in the management of these complications has translated into a high degree of uncertainty regarding the most appropriate treatment of…
This study is for individuals who have Cushings disease and want to join voluntarily in this study to find out if a study drug called osilodrostat (LCI699) is safe and has beneficial effects in people who have Cushings disease. Cushings disease is a rare but debilitating disease. Cushings disease is caused by a benign tumor of the pituitary gland. The tumor…
The purpose of this study is to determine if measuring blood levels of proteins called POMC, AgRP, and chromogrannin A (CGA) can be used to diagnose and track tumor growth and recurrence in patients that have ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome, non-secreting pituitary tumors, and other neuroendocrine tumors. We invite you to participate if you have: a…
This prospective, multicenter trial is looking at the investigative device called the ACURATE Transcatheter Aortic Valve System for TAVR to see if it is safe and effective in treating patients with severe symptomatic native aortic stenosis. The ACURATE Transcatheter Aortic Valve System for TAVR is designed for iliofemoral access and delivery of a self-…
This study is being done to answer the following question: Is treatment with HER2-targeted therapy without radiation therapy as good as the usual treatment of radiation and HER2-targeted therapy in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who have had surgery, chemotherapy, and HER2-targeted therapy? This study is being done to find out if this approach is…
We are conducting a series of focus group sessions to investigate the attitudes and opinions of young Black women regarding breast cancer, breast cancer risk, and biomarker-based screening to inform current breast cancer screening guidelines.
Aortic stenosis (AS) or narrowing of the arteries remains one of the most common valvular diseases in the Western population requiring intervention. The deterioration of the aortic valve is more common in the older population and usually along with coronary artery disease (CAD) requires the need for treatment. This is a study that is collecting safety and…
This study is being done to answer the following question: Can we lower the chance of your cancer returning by adding the drug olaparib to the usual radiation therapy for your cancer? We are doing this study because we want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your inflammatory breast cancer. The usual approach is…
This is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, single-arm, open-label clinical study, sponsored by Pi-Cardia. Fifteen (15) patients with symptomatic severe Aortic Stenosis (narrowing of the aortic valve) who are considered operable but are not recommended by the heart team for immediate treatment with surgical or transcatheter aortic valve replacement…
The study is to determine whether aortic valve replacement is helpful for patients who have moderate-severe, calcific, aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the aortic heart valve, where calcium has attached to the valve surface, resulting in obstructed blood flow) and do not have symptoms. Subjects will be randomly assigned, l to one of two groups: (1) Treatment…
The purpose of the study is to determine whether ablation, which is the removal or destruction of a tumor (through SBRT and/or surgical resection of all known metastases) in oligometastatic breast cancer patients improves progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
The study is to determine whether aortic valve replacement is helpful for patients who have severe, calcific, aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the aortic heart valve, where calcium has attached to the valve surface, resulting in obstructed blood flow) and do not have symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the effectiveness and safety of LCI699 in treating patients with Cushing's disease. Patients will be treated with the invesitigational drug LCI699 at doses up to 60 mg a day, and possibly for a short period of time with placebo. A placebo is a dummy drug ("pill") with no active medicine inside.
The main purpose of this clinical trial is to study women like you who have cancer cells in the lymph nodes at the time that the breast cancer is diagnosed and have chemotherapy before surgery that clears the cancer cells from the lymph nodes. This study asks 1) if, after lumpectomy, radiation to the breast and lymph nodes will be better than radiation only…
Some people who are treated for breast cancer develop swelling in their arms as a result of their treatment. This swelling is called lymphedema and it can be chronic. The purpose of this study is to see if early detection of arm swelling using a small painless device (called bioelectrical impedance), immediately followed by compression treatment, prevents…
The objective of this study is to collect outcome data on valve performance and a pre-specified TAVR care pathway. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has been shown to be a safe and effective treatment for patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at extreme, high, or intermediate surgical risk. Since CoreValveTM became commercially approved…
The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of Faslodex given directly into thebreast ducts of women with invasive breast cancer or Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS). This study is for women who have been diagnosed with invasive breast cancer or DCIS. DCIS is the presence of abnormal cells inside a milk duct in the breast, and…
The purpose of this registry study is to assess information obtained from the Agendia Breast Cancer Suite of diagnostic tests and other clinical information to study ways to assist in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment decisions in Chinese patients. The Agendia Breast Cancer Suite includes MammaPrint, TargetPrint, BluePrint, and TheraPrint which are…
The purpose of this study is to assess the performance and ease of use of the AeroDorm Tissue Expander System in women who are undergoing breast reconstruction surgery. This device is for use in women who are having or have had a mastectomy procedure to remove their breast(s) because of breast cancer (or to decrease their risk of breast cancer). The study…
This study is for women who have been diagnosed with stage 2 or stage 3 breast cancer whose doctor has recommended that you receive radiation therapy after your mastectomy to prevent your breast cancer from coming back. Radiation uses particles of energy to kill any remaining cancer cells where your breast was removed or in the lymph nodes. Radiation after…
The purpose of this study is to capture and evaluate clinical data about the long-term safety and effectiveness of Novilasee - a FDA-cleared minimally invasive treatment for benign breast tumors in hopes that tracking and analyzing the safety and effectiveness of Novilase in a real world application will benefit future patients and the breast cancer…
