About this study

Official title: Metabolic Genotypes and Oncogenic Damage in Breast Cancer

RATIONALE: Studying samples of urine and blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This study is looking at urine and blood samples in women with newly diagnosed breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine the association between the genotype for 4 metabolic enzymes (e.g., CYP1A1, GSTM, GSTT, and GSTP) in women with newly diagnosed breast cancer that play key roles in the metabolism of environmental human carcinogens and the risk of breast cancer development.

OUTLINE: Urine and blood samples are collected for DNA, mutation, and polymorphism analysis. The biological samples may be stored and used for future research.

Patients complete a Baseline Questionnaire to collect basic risk/exposure information, including demographic factors (e.g., age, weight, height, and body mass index), menstrual/reproductive history, medical history, medication use, smoking history, alcohol consumption, exposure to chest x-ray, and family history of breast cancer in first-degree relatives. Patients also complete a Second Hand Smoke Questionnaire to collect information on cigarette smoking history and second hand smoke exposure and a Food Frequency Questionnaire to collect information on the frequency of use of specific fruits and vegetables (e.g., cruciferous vegetables) and to estimate usual dietary intake of 33 nutrients during the past year (e.g., total fat, saturated fat, oleic fat, linoleic fat, carbohydrates, protein, vitamins [e.g., A, B1, B2, niacin, B6, folate, C, and E], minerals [e.g., calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc], electrolytes [e.g., sodium and potassium], and dietary fiber). Patients' medical charts are also reviewed to collect information on age, gender, ethnic background, medical history, and medical care.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Wake Forest University Health Sciences at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Association between the genotype for 4 metabolic enzymes (e.g., CYP1A1, GSTM, GSTT, and GSTP) that play key roles in the metabolism of environmental human carcinogens and the risk of breast cancer development (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Aug 2017.
