The treatment for postmenopausal women diagnosed with hormone receptor positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer (mBr) includes endocrine therapy However, de novo or acquired resistance to endocrine therapy remains an important clinical problem. Many hormone receptor positive breast cancers demonstrate overexpression of cyclin D. Cyclin D interacts directly with cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) in an active protein complex that promotes cell proliferation; and consequently, CDK4/6 represents a potential therapeutic target for HR+ breast cancers.

In patients with breast cancer which has metastasized to the lymph nodes under the arm, treatment involves marking one of the metastatic nodes at the time of needle sampling for later removal after months of systemic therapy before surgery. When patients respond well to systemic therapy, the marked node can be hard to find by ultrasound, the imaging modality of choice. Mayo has designed a marker that is conspicuous by ultrasound and has shown short-term safety and good performance in a Phase 0 Clinical Trial. This study investigates the hypothesis that the Mayo marker will be safe, detectable by ultrasound, and minimally ...

Each year, the number of breast cancer survivors who choose post-mastectomy breast reconstruction keeps rising. Among women who elect to pursue breast reconstruction, approximately 75% will choose prosthetic breast reconstruction. Implant-based breast reconstruction is frequently achieved in two-stages. The first stage consists of the placement of a tissue expander after mastectomy. This is followed by a period of weekly tissue expansions that can last several months. In the second stage, the tissue expander is removed in a surgical procedure and replaced with a permanent breast implant. Tissue expansion is a well-established breast reconstruction technique characterized by high success rates and ...
