About this study

Official title: Metabolic Profiling of Dietary Polyphenols and Methylxanthines in Normal and Malignant Mammary Tissues From Breast Cancer Patients

The aim is to characterise the metabolic profiling of dietary polyphenols in normal and malignant breast tissues from breast cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this exploratory trial is to determine the disposition and characterise the metabolic profiling of dietary polyphenols in normal and malignant glandular breast tissues from newly diagnosed breast cancer patients.

The patients consumed a polyphenol-rich dietary supplement containing 37 different phenolics and 2 methylxanthines (theobromine and caffeine) from the diagnosis to the surgery. The metabolic profiling was characterized in normal and malignant breast tissues as well as plasma and urine using UPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS.

What participants receive

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

  • PolyphenolDietary supplement

    Patients consume 3 capsules/day (474 mg phenolics/day) from the biopsy-confirmed breast cancer diagnosis to the surgery

Study groups in NCT03482401
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Polyphenol groupExperimentalPatients consumed a polyphenol-rich dietary supplement (commercial lemon, orange, pomegranate, olive, grape, cocoa, curcuma and broccoli extracts), mainly rich in simple phenolics such as hydroxytyrosol and the polyphenols procyanidins, hesperidin, eriocitrin, curcumin, resveratrol, punicalagin and ellagic acid. Cocoa extract also contains the methylxanthines theobromine and caffeine.

Control groupNo interventionParticipating patients did not consume the supplement but provided biological samples to the trial

What is being measured

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

  1. Quantification of dietary polyphenols and methylxanthines in breast tissues

    Quantification of dietary polyphenols and methylxanthines in normal and malignant mammary tissues from breast cancer patients using ultra-high resolution liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS).

    • Quantification (pmol/g) of each phenolic-derived metabolite in breast tissues.
    • Quantification (pmol/g) of each methylxanthine-derived metabolite in breast tissues.

    Measured: 1-24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quantification of dietary polyphenols and methylxanthines in plasma and urine

    Quantification of dietary polyphenols and methylxanthines in urine and plasma from breast cancer patients using ultra-high resolution liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS).

    • Quantification of each phenolic-derived metabolite in urine and plasma (nmol/L).
    • Quantification of each methylxanthine-derived metabolite in urine and plasma (nmol/L).

    Measured: 8-24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Polyphenol in people with Breast Cancer, run by National Research Council, Spain at 1 site in Spain.

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 5 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 10 Sep 2020. 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 Spain. 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 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?

Quantification of dietary polyphenols and methylxanthines in breast tissues (time frame: 1-24 months). 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 10 Sep 2020.
