About this study

Official title: CAMISS Retrospective Cohort - Effect of Interval Cancer and Screening Process on Survival and Disease-free Period in Breast Cancer

This is a multicenter retrospective cohort of women participating in breast cancer screening programs in Spain between 2000 and 2009, with a cancer diagnosed during the screening or between the screening interval (interval cancer), specifically true interval cancers and false negatives. The investigators obtained woman-related information (including breast density), tumor-related information (including tumor phenotype), and follow-up information (including relapses, second neoplasms and vital status at the end of follow up (June 2014)). The objective is to evaluate the survival and disease-free period of women participating in screening programs for breast cancer with a cancer diagnosed during the screening or an interval cancer, specifically true interval cancers and false negatives.

This study is part of a broader project (CAMISS study), which also includes one prospective cohort (CAMISS Prospective cohort - Identifier in ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02439554).

Read the detailed description

The general objective for this study is to evaluate the survival and disease-free period of women participating in screening programs for breast cancer with a cancer diagnosed during the screening or an interval cancer, specifically true interval cancers and false negatives.

The cohort has information of women participating in breast cancer screening programs in Spain between 2000 and 2009, with a breast cancer diagnosed during the screening or between the screening interval (interval cancer), specifically true interval cancers and false negatives. The investigators obtained woman-related information (including breast density), tumor-related information (including tumor phenotype), and follow-up information (including relapses, second neoplasms and vital status at the end of follow up (June 2014)).

Expected results: Nowadays there are no results of cohort analysis of the diagnostic process of care that integrates all those different aspects. This study will complement the evaluation of population screening, specifically the interval cancer and the impact on survival and disease-free period taking into account relevant variables like breast density, tumor phenotype, clinical complications, readmissions, and the surgical approach.

This study is part of a broader project (CAMISS study) coordinated by the Evaluation of Health Services of Epidemiology and Public Health Group, which consists of two cohorts of women diagnosed with breast cancer: a prospective cohort (n=2,040 incident cases of breast cancer diagnosed in 18 hospitals of 5 Spanish regions) (Identifier in ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02439554) and a retrospective cohort of screened women diagnosed with breast cancer between 2000 and 2009 in two Spanish regions (n=1,086).

The general objective of the CAMISS study is to evaluate different aspects of health care received by patients with breast cancer like the diagnostic process, treatment, complications, survival, costs and quality of life to provide information to improve the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of interventions, reduce variability, have better predictive rules and increase the quality of life.

What participants receive

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

  • Mode of detection: Cancer detected at screeningProcedure or surgery

    Cancers detected as a result of screening mammograms.

  • Mode of detection: Interval cancerProcedure or surgery

    Cancers diagnosed after a negative screening mammogram and before the next screening invitation (2 years in Spain)

What is being measured

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

  1. Mortality

    Death from any cause

    Measured: From date of cancer diagnosis until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 14 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Recurrences and second breast neoplasms

    Measured: From date of cancer diagnosis until the date of the first recurrence or second breast neoplasm, whichever came first, assessed up to 14 years

  2. Treatment-related complications

    Measured: From the date of surgery until the end of follow-up, assessed up to 14 years.

  3. Readmissions to hospital for reasons related to breast cancer

    Measured: From the date of surgery until the end of follow-up, assessed up to 14 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Parc de Salut Mar.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 24 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Mortality (time frame: From date of cancer diagnosis until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 14 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03165006, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 24 May 2017.
