About this study

Official title: Effects of Pharmacogenetics on Pharmacokinetics and Toxicity of Doxorubicin in Egyptian Breast Cancer Patients

This study aims to investigate the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of genes involved in doxorubicin transport and metabolism on its pharmacokinetics and toxicity in Egyptian breast cancer patients.

It also aims to explore the association of pretreatment neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with pathological complete response (pCR).

Read the detailed description

Plasma concentrations of doxorubicin will be determined and venous blood samples will be obtained from each patient for SNP genotyping of genes involved in doxorubicin transport and metabolism on its pharmacokinetics and toxicity in Egyptian breast cancer patients [prospective study].

A complete blood count was carried out at baseline for patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was calculated as the ratio between the absolute count of neutrophils and the absolute count of lymphocytes [ retrospective study].

What is being measured

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

  1. Doxorubicin plasma concentrations

    Plasma concentrations of doxorubicin will be determined using a suitable analytical method.

    Measured: baseline

  2. neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio

    The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was calculated as the ratio between the absolute count of neutrophils and the absolute count of lymphocytes.

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Menoufia University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 19 Sep 2024. 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 Egypt. 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?

Doxorubicin plasma concentrations (time frame: baseline). 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 NCT06595758, 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 19 Sep 2024.
