Trial summary

Triple-negative breast carcinoma is characterized by the absence of estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and HER2/neu receptors. Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a tumor-associated cell surface glycoprotein that is involved in adaptation to hypoxia-induced acidosis and plays a role in cancer progression.

About this study

Official title: Carbonic Anhydrase IX Enzyme in Triple Negative Breast Carcinoma: Relationship With Prognostic Factors and Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy

Triple-negative breast carcinoma is characterized by the absence of estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and HER2/neu receptors. Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a tumor-associated cell surface glycoprotein that is involved in adaptation to hypoxia-induced acidosis and plays a role in cancer progression. This study aimed to investigate CA IX expression in TNBC and its relationship with treatment effect.

Read the detailed description

Tru-cut biopsy materials, sent to our hospital pathology laboratory between August 2018 and May 2023, will be examined. Invasive carcinoma cases will be evaluated according to estrogen, progesterone, and HER 2 receptor levels. Triple-negative tumor cases were isolated and those cases who underwent breast resection in our hospital after receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (Adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, and then paclitaxel for 4 cycles) were included in the study.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Carbonic anhydrase staining levelsDiagnostic test

    CA IX is a transmembrane protein, it exhibits cytoplasmic membrane staining. Immunohistochemically positive cells were graded as Low staining if they constituted <10% of the total and high staining if they constituted ≥ 10% (15).

What is being measured

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

  1. Poor prognostic factors in patients with TNBC

    Higher staining CA IX levels (≥ 10%) in TNBC patients' pathological specimens is a poor prognostic factor

    Measured: 2018-2023

  2. The treatment success with inhibiting the CA IX enzyme levels' effectiveness

    Treatment success in TNBC patients by evaluating changes in CA IX staining levels

    Measured: 2018-2023

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?

Poor prognostic factors in patients with TNBC (time frame: 2018-2023). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06309459, which also lists 9 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 13 Mar 2024.
