Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients who present with newly diagnosed breast cancer or breast cancer recurrence.

Who may be able to join

  • All patients must have a primary invasive breast cancer with the primary tumor intact (T2-4, any N, any M). Inflammatory breast cancer is permitted.
  • For the neoadjuvant cohort (group 1), the patient's clinical plan includes neoadjuvant systemic therapy (chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, and/or biologic therapy) prior to surgery on the breast.
  • For the adjuvant cohort (group 2), the patient's clinical plan includes surgical resection of the primary breast mass followed by adjuvant chemotherapy (with or without endocrine therapy or biologic therapy such as trastuzumab).
  • Patients in the neoadjuvant cohort must have had mammography performed at the University of Michigan, OR outside film review prior to enrollment.
  • All patients are required to sign an informed consent document regarding the experimental purpose of the research biopsies and serum banking, in accordance with the University of Michigan IRB standards.
  • Exclusion Criteria - For the neoadjuvant cohort (group 1): Tumors diagnosed by excisional biopsy, or incisional biopsy that does not leave at least 2 cm of measurable disease by physical examination, mammography, or ultrasound (with the exception of inflammatory breast cancer)
Show all 13Show fewer
  • For the adjuvant cohort (group 2): Tumors diagnosed by excisional or incisional biopsy and which are not likely to have at least 2 cm of residual tumor remaining
  • Patients must not have received any prior chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or radiation therapy for their current breast cancer. Patients who received tamoxifen or other agents for prevention of breast cancer may be included.
  • Patients with another active systemic malignancy within the past year.
  • Entry Criteria for patients with newly diagnosed locoregional or distant disease recurrence (who did not enroll at the time of initial adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy) (group 3)
  • Patients must have been previously diagnosed with non-invasive or invasive breast cancer.
  • Patients must have been diagnosed with biopsy-proven recurrence of breast cancer at any site
  • All patients are required to sign an informed consent document regarding the experimental purpose of the research biopsies and serum banking, in accordance with the University of Michigan IRB standards.

Who cannot join

  • Patients must not have received any chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or radiation therapy for treatment of their recurrent breast cancer.
  • Patients must not have been diagnosed with another active systemic malignancy within the past year.

About this study

Through the investigators' Breast Care Center at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center, the investigators treat approximately 75 patients per year with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The majority of the remainder of patients with stage II and III disease undergo treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy either on a clinical protocol or as standard of care. There is a subset of women with ER positive disease who do not receive chemotherapy because of favorable tumor characteristics.

This tissue procurement protocol is designed to systematically collect tissue, urine and blood specimens on patients undergoing neoadjuvant systemic therapy or adjuvant chemotherapy, serially following treatment, and/or at the time of disease recurrence in order to investigate mechanisms underlying development of metastatic disease, to identify predictors of response and resistance to therapy, and to test potential new therapies for breast cancer using a combination of patient-derived xenograft creation and new microfluidic technologies.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT02455882
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
NeoadjuvantPatients initiating standard of care treatment with primary systemic therapy for breast cancer
AdjuvantPatients initiating standard of care treatment with surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer
RecurrencePatients with a history of breast cancer who are diagnosed with disease recurrence

What is being measured

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

  1. Collection of samples for analysis of somatic mutations

    Mutations in the tumor before and after primary systemic therapy will be examined

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Collection of samples for analysis of circulating biomarkers

    Change in circulating biomarkers, including extracellular DNA and RNA, over time will be examined

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by University of Michigan 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 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jul 2018. 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 was stopped early (reason given: This study was terminated to prevent duplicative research efforts.). 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?

Collection of samples for analysis of somatic mutations (time frame: 5 years). 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 12 Jul 2018.
