Tomography (DOT), can help predict how well patients respond to a pre-surgical therapy. This imaging technique uses light to create 3D maps of the blood, fat, and water content of the breast. Based on these measurements taken over 2 time points during therapy (before and after), we will try to determine if this new imaging technique can use early…
We are currently recruiting women to TMIST, a clinical trial that will help us develop strategies that tailor breast cancer screening to the risks of individual women. This is a screening trial. The purpose of this trial is to determine if tomosynthesis (3-D) mammography detects breast cancer at earlier stage than current method of 2-D digital mammography.
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…
Did you know that people living with HIV are 50-100% more likely to develop heart disease (including heart attack and stroke) than people without HIV? And did you know that women with HIV are 3 times more likely to have a heart attack than women without HIV? Heart disease in HIV-infected people is a big deal. We are doing a study to test if a daily dose of…
The purpose of this research study is to determine if using a piece of the patient's residual tumor to develop a model of her cancer in mice that lack an immune system (also called an immune-deficient mouse) could help in determining which additional drugs or compounds to which an individual breast tumor is sensitive. The tumor implanted in the mouse…
The purpose of this study is to find out what side effects (unwanted effects) are caused in patients with breast cancer who are given SGN-LIV1A (single therapy). This study will also look at other effects of SGN-LIV1A, including its effect on this type of cancer. This study is also being done to find out what side effects (unwanted effects) are caused in…
This research study for people who have tested positive for cytomegalovirus (CMV) after receiving a solid-organ transplant or stem cell transplant. This is a non-interventional study. This study involves the use of an investigational test called the Aptima CMV Quantification Diagnostic Assay (Aptima CMV Quant Assay) to determine the levels of CMV in your…
