About this study
Official title: PROspective Evaluation of GErmline Mutations, Cancer Outcome and Tissue Biomarkers: A Registry for Patients With Triple Negative Breast Cancer and Germline Mutations
PROGECT is a registry for patients with Triple Negative breast cancer (TNBC) or patients who have an identified germline mutations (such as a mutation on the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes).
Read the detailed description
This study is being done to collect cancer-related information from patients with triple negative breast cancer and patients with hereditary genetic mutations. This information will help us better understand the link between genetic changes and cancer outcome in patients with triple negative breast cancer.
- Keywords
- Triple Negative Breast Cancer, TNBC, Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer, HBOC, Prospective Registry
- Medical subject headings
- Breast Neoplasms, Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome, Triple Negative Breast Neoplasms
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Triple Negative Breast Cancer patients | No intervention | |
| Germline HBOC Mutation Carriers | No intervention |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Prevalence of germline mutations (such as BRCA1/2 mutations) in patients with TNBC
Measured: 5 years
. Predictors of response to neo/adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with TNBC
Measured: 5 years
Long term Disease free and overall survival rates in TNBC patients treated with different systemic therapies
Measured: 10 years
