What participants receive

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

  • Collection of bloodOther

    Collection of blood only to look at circulating autoantibodies that recognize breast cancer proteins to potentially be used as a biosensor for identifying patients with increased risk of having breast cancer

Study groups in NCT03623945
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cohort APatients who have recently had an abnormal mammogram, followed by a breast biopsy and an initial diagnosis of Stage I, II, III or IV invasive breast cancer, will be invited to participate. Stage I, II and III participants will be further categorized into high-risk and low-risk. For the purposes of this study, participants with at least one of the following will be considered high-risk; any triple negative cancer, any grade III cancer, lymph node involvement, tumor greater than 2cm, or any patient receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy.
Receives: Other: Collection of blood
Cohort BPatients who have recently had an abnormal mammogram, followed by a breast biopsy and diagnosed with a benign but high-risk pathology, will be invited to participate. This includes, but is not limited to, atypical ductal hyperplasia, atypical lobular hyperplasia, ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS), flat epithelia atypia or phylloides. Accrual to Cohort B is complete.
Receives: Other: Collection of blood
Cohort CPatients who have recently had an abnormal mammogram, followed by a breast biopsy and diagnosed with a benign tumor, will be invited to participate. This includes, but is not limited to, fibroadenoma, papilloma, fibrocystic changes and Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH). Accrual to Cohort C is complete
Receives: Other: Collection of blood
Cohort DPatients who have had a normal screening mammogram within the last 6 months will be invited to participate. Accrual to Cohort D is complete.
Receives: Other: Collection of blood
Cohort EPatients who have recently had an abnormal mammogram, followed by a breast biopsy and an initial diagnosis of Stage I, II, III invasive breast cancer. Patients who have recently had an abnormal mammogram, followed by a breast biopsy, and diagnosed with a benign but high-risk pathology. Cohort E has 3 sub-groups. For the purposes of this study, participants with a breast cancer will be categorized as E1-malignant high risk, of E2-malignant low risk. Patients who have recently had an abnormal mammogram, followed by a breast biopsy, and diagnosed with a benign but high-risk pathology, will be invited to participate. These patients will be considered E3-benign high-risk.

What is being measured

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

  1. Autoantibodies for breast cancer diagnosis

    The data from Phase I will be tested and validated with newly diagnosed BCa patient samples from Cohort A, and age-matched healthy controls taken from Cohort D, and a risk score will be developed based on a composite of autoantibodies for breast cancer diagnosis. A Cox Proportional Hazards (PH) Regression will be used to analyze a case-cohort study design to validate the risk score by identifying breast cancer cases from those cases in Cohorts B, C and D.

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Sanford Health at 2 sites 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 14 inclusion and 13 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 11 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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: Study closed to enrollment and data and specimen collection due to lack of funding.). 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?

Autoantibodies for breast cancer diagnosis (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 11 Dec 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
