About this study

Official title: LCCC 1027: Expression Of P16INK4a As A Predictor Of Myelosuppression In Patients With Breast Cancer

The primary purpose of this study is to measure the association between baseline expression of the senescence effector protein p16INK4a and myelosuppression due to chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer. Patients with Stage I-IV breast cancer will be included and myelosuppression will be assessed after the first cycle of chemotherapy via measurement of an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) measured one time between days 7-11 post cycle one. Study subjects will also be asked to complete a brief health behaviors questionnaire to gather information on other relevant variables.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Determine if p16INK4a Expression at Baseline is Related to Nadir Neutrophil Counts in Women with Breast Cancer Receiving Chemotherapy

    To measure and correlate baseline p16INK4a expression in subjects with stage I-IV breast cancer starting a new course of chemotherapy with a post cycle 1 chemotherapy absolute neutrophil count (ANC).

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Define the Association Between p16INK4a Expression and Physical Activity, Smoking and Alcohol Consumption in Women with Breast Cancer Receiving Chemotherapy

    To explore the associations between p16INK4a expression at baseline and amount of vigorous physical activity, smoking habits, and weekly alcohol consumption.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Explore the Associations between p16INK4a Expression at Baseline and Other Chemotherapy-Related Toxicities including Nausea and Vomiting, Neuropathy, Fatigue and Other Grade 3 and 4 Toxicities

    To explore the associations between p16INK4a expression at baseline and other chemotherapy-related toxicities, including the maximum toxicity experienced during that course of chemotherapy.

    Measured: 24 Months

  3. Explore Associations between p16INK4a Expression at Baseline, Chemotherapy Regimen, and its Effect on Patient Function

    To explore the associations between p16INK4a expression at baseline and type of chemotherapy received, co-morbidities, concomitant medications, and tumor characteristics.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by UNC Lineberger 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?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 5 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 19 Sep 2024. 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?

Determine if p16INK4a Expression at Baseline is Related to Nadir Neutrophil Counts in Women with Breast Cancer Receiving Chemotherapy (time frame: 24 months). 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 19 Sep 2024.
