About this study

Official title: Characterization and Implication of Prolactin Receptor Mutants in Human Breast Diseases

Prolactin is known to play an important role in breast development and differentiation. Thus proliferative breast diseases are good models to unravel PRl / PRLR function in proliferative processes.

The aim of this project is to identify and to characterize new mutants of the prolactin receptor gene within cohorts of benign or malign breast diseases with low or high occurrence frequency in human populations

Read the detailed description

There is currently no known genetic disease linked to prolactin (prl) or its receptor (prlR) in humans. In a previous work, we have identified a new mutation of prolactin receptor that leads to it's constitutive activation and to cell proliferation signalling cascades (i.e. through MAP kinases).

This result suggests that PRLR mutants may have a strong physiopathological impact on breast diseases etiology and/or development and/or evolution.

Based on this, we will pursue the identification of new PRLR mutants in various breast diseases and continue their in vitro functional characterization and then analyse their in vivo consequences on breast tissue samples collected within these women.

  1. In a first time we wish to confirm our previous results on multiple fibroadenomas (MFA). The current cohort will be augmented with 30 to 35 new patients each year. We will confirm our in vitro results in vivo with tumoral and peri-tumoral tissue samples.
  2. We then wish to extend this study to other rare breast pathologies (i.e. gigantomastia, phyllodies tumors, giant fibroadenomas) and to more common ones (simple fibroadenomas) to demonstrate a link between simple FA and MFA.
  3. in a third time we will try to determinate whether a constitutive activation of PRLR leads to enhanced occurrence of benign / malign transitions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Benign Breast Disease and Breast Cancer, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 12 inclusion and 2 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 25 Nov 2013. 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 France. 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?

Sequencing of PRLR (time frame: at inclusion). 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 25 Nov 2013.
