About this study

Official title: Prospective Observational Study to Evaluate the Correlation Between Antitumor Activity of Hormone Therapy and the Expression of Micro-RNA (miRNA) 100

Mono-centric, observational, prospective study, designed for pts with diagnosis of hormone-positive breast cancer to evaluate the correlation between the response to hormonal treatment indicated by the reduction of the level of Ki67 and miRNA100 in two groups of patients

Read the detailed description

The potential role of miRNAs will be studied as a predictor of hormone sensitivity in hormone-positive breast carcinomas. The miRNA100 obtained on biopsy will be compared with the expression levels of those obtained from the surgically removed tumor, in order to assess the possible modulation of miRNA100 following hormonal treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of the efficacy

    the natural logarithm value of Ki67 <1.0 defines the proliferative response to treatment. Response evaluation will be performed by measuring the reduction of Ki67 as a result of hormonal treatment according to a schedule defined on the basis of the stage of disease: patients with immediate operable cancer will be valued at the time of surgery (about 3 weeks).

    candidate patients to neoadjuvant hormone therapy and patients with stage 4 debut in hormonal therapy in advanced therapy (evaluation during the third week of starting treatment)

    Measured: 42 months or until disease progression

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of Tolerability

    The frequency and severity of adverse events will be evaluated based on the NCI-CTCAE v 4.0 criteria

    Measured: 42 months or until disease progression

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Fondazione del Piemonte per l'Oncologia at 1 site in Italy.

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 16 inclusion and 9 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 3 Nov 2016. 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 Italy. 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?

Contact Annamaria Nuzzo, PhD (+390119933398, annamaria.nuzzo@ircc.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of the efficacy (time frame: 42 months or until disease progression). 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 3 Nov 2016.
