Though Black women have a lower breast cancer rate than White women, Black women have the poorest outcomes of all races and ethnicities. Low cancer knowledge and mistrust of the healthcare system have been shown to lead to poorer outcomes following breast cancer diagnosis. Participants are asked to

The overarching hypothesis of our research is that black cohosh has potential to be a well-tolerated, effective agent for the treatment of early breast cancer. This pilot study represents a first step in exploring this hypothesis by demonstrating preliminary evidence of specific anti-tumor effect of

The 5-year survival after a first diagnosis of breast cancer is 13% lower in black than in white American women, an alarming disparity that cannot be explained by stage of disease at presentation. Nonadherence to breast cancer treatment and treatment delays from diagnosis to initiation of treatment

Breast cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in women. Black women are less likely than white women to develop breast cancer but, they are more likely to die of the disease. Some of this survival discrepancy is likely due to underuse of adjuvant therapies proven to increase

Green tea contains phytochemicals, especially flavonoids. Phytochemicals are not absolutely required for normal functions, but may confer health benefits such as antioxidant actions. One can live without phytochemicals, but one may live longer and better with them. The phytochemicals in tea have

Efficacious adjuvant treatments such as radiotherapy following breast conserving surgery, and chemo- or hormonal therapy for stage 1b or 2 breast cancer improve disease-free and overall survival. Lower rates of radiotherapy following breast-conserving surgery have been reported among black women.

Pretreatment evaluation of axillary lymph nodes and marking of biopsied nodes in patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer is becoming routine practice. Tagging of biopsied axillary lymph nodes with metal markers, similar to what is done for suspicious breast lesions, is being adopted in clinical

Cancer treatments, including surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, are often linked to acute and late side effects. Historically, these effects were assessed by physicians and scored using standardized scales such as the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Thorough and accurate

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive breast cancer subtype that does not express estrogen, progesterone, or the human epidermal growth factor (HER2/neu) receptors, and has a low overall survival rate compared to other types of breast cancer. Unlike hormone and HER2/neu positive

As early as a century ago, Investigators proved that diet restriction can prevent the occurrence of transplanted tumors in mice. Following this milestone, many animal studies (from mice to primates) have confirmed that diet restriction can slow the development of spontaneous tumors and transplanted

840 women aged ≥18 years old scheduled to receive chemotherapy for Stage I-III breast cancer and a comparison population of 160 women without cancer (1,000 total). Equal numbers of women will be recruited aged < 52 vs. > 52. At baseline, innovative MRI measures of CV function (LV and aorta);

The proposed study includes three aims: intervention development using focus groups, intervention refinement based upon a pre-pilot, and a randomized controlled pilot study of the final intervention. All participants are adult survivors of childhood cancer, males and females from three ethnic

Oral cancer is the sixth most common cancer in males and the twelfth most common in females. Approximately, 94% of all oral malignancies are squamous cell carcinoma. Over the past few decades, researchers have explored alternate therapies and remedies to prevent its progression but have yielded to

1. Research purpose This clinical trial was designed to evaluate the anti-tumor effect of sirolimus in patients with advanced or postoperative recurrent pancreatic cancer with second-line standard therapy resistance. 2. Grouping and sample size calculation A single-arm study was designed. Based on
