Triple Negative Breast Cancer: Study of Molecular and Genetic Factors

A study testing BRCA1 BRCA2 PTEN PALB2 mutation in people with Breast Cancer, run by Institut Paoli-Calmettes at 4 sites in France.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

Breast cancer triples negatives (TN; 15 % of the cases) are characterized by a high histoprognostic grade, a strong proliferation, a strong metastatic power, and a worse prognosis than the other forms of breast cancer. It is however a heterogenous group for histological and molecular level, but also for evolution. Read more about this study

About this study

Breast cancer triples negatives (TN; 15 % of the cases) are characterized by a high histoprognostic grade, a strong proliferation, a strong metastatic power, and a worse prognosis than the other forms of breast cancer. It is however a heterogenous group for histological and molecular level, but also for evolution. Most of the TN is part of the basal breast cancer subcategory. Until now, the medical treatment is based on chemotherapy.

Breast cancers by constitutional mutation of BRCA1 / BRCA2 (5 % of breast cancers) are mostly of basal type and their prognostic seems better that what could be expected from high grade tumours and without hormonal receptors. They would be much more frequent in the TN group. However, at this day, no prospective study was led to estimate this incidence, or to study the intervention of other genes of predisposition, as well to analyse the links between this phenotype and their consequences at the germinal or somatic level, in terms of associated molecular changes and prognosis.

The purpose of this study is, on a prospective study, to lead a joined analysis at the germinal level, in search of mutations of the main genes of breast cancer predisposition (BRCA1/2, PALB2, PTEN, PALB2), and at the tumour level (tissue micro-array and transcriptome), by correlating these results to the main clinical parameters.

The 5 years relapse-free survival will also be estimated.

What is being measured

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

  1. incidence of BRCA1/2, PALB2, PTEN, PALB2 mutations

    1. Determine the incidence of the BRCA1/2, PALB2, PTEN, PALB2 mutations in patients having at diagnosis a non metastatic triple negative breast cancer

    Measured: up to 1 month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. molecular profiles

    1. Determine by tissue micro- array and transcriptome the molecular profiles and their correlation with the presence of a mutation

    Measured: up to 1 month

  2. years relapse-free survival

    1. Determine the 5 years relapse-free survival in presence or not of a mutation, and according to the molecular profile of expression.

    Measured: at 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BRCA1 BRCA2 PTEN PALB2 mutation in people with Breast Cancer, run by Institut Paoli-Calmettes at 4 sites 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 5 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

incidence of BRCA1/2, PALB2, PTEN, PALB2 mutations (time frame: up to 1 month). 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 31 Dec 2014.
