About this study

Official title: A Pilot Trial to Correlate Serum Levels of Calgranulin A and B With Estrogen Receptor Status Among Patients With Breast Cancer

RATIONALE: Measuring levels of calgranulin A and calgranulin B in the blood of patients with breast cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to breast cancer.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is measuring calgranulin A and calgranulin B levels in the blood of patients with newly diagnosed stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine circulating levels of calgranulin A and calgranulin B in patients with estrogen receptor negative or estrogen receptor positive, newly diagnosed, primary stage I-III adenocarcinoma of the breast.

OUTLINE: This is a pilot study.

Patients undergo a blood draw following diagnosis of breast cancer to assess levels of circulating tumor markers, calgranulin A and calgranulin B. Serum samples are evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for tumor marker expression.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 60 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Case Comprehensive Cancer Center 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?

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 2 Oct 2015. 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?

Correlation between circulating levels of calgranulin A and calgranulin B and the presence of estrogen receptor negative breast cancer (time frame: upon diagnosis). 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 2 Oct 2015.
