Trial summary

This project introduces a novel methodology for the in-depth immunogenetic characterization of the TR gene repertoire in solid tumors, holding the promise to offer unprecedented insights into the TR anti-tumor specificity and the prognostic/predictive value of TR gene repertoire signatures.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study group includes patients diagnosed with TNBC. Each patient provided written informed consent, and paired samples of peripheral blood (PB) and tumor tissue were obtained at the time of diagnosis and before initiating any treatment. The selection of patients will be meticulously carried out by the PI and team members based on comprehensive clinical records, including clinicobiological characteristics. Further refinement of the study group will be contingent upon sample availability and the quality of biological material.

Who may be able to join

  • Confirmed TNBC diagnosis

Who cannot join

About this study

This project introduces a novel methodology for the in-depth immunogenetic characterization of the TR gene repertoire in solid tumors, holding the promise to offer unprecedented insights into the TR anti-tumor specificity and the prognostic/predictive value of TR gene repertoire signatures.

Read the detailed description

The goal of this observational study is to address the role of T cells in the tumor microenvironment of TNBC.

In detail, this study aims to:

(i) explore the immunogenetic characteristics of the TR gene repertoire as informative prognostic/predictive biomarkers in TNBC (ii) identify immunogenic neoepitopes arising from common tumor-specific non-synonymous gene mutations, as well as the corresponding neoepitope-specific T cells (iii) describe, in single-cell resolution, the spatial organization of the intricate crosstalk between tumor cells and neoepitope specific-T cells, and (iv) delineate the functional properties of T cells within the TME.

All the experimental results, regarding the TR repertoire features and the spatial organization of the TME, will be correlated with clinical outcome measurements (e.g. overall survival, progression time), which are available from the detailed patients medical record.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Triple Negative Breast Cancer, run by Institute of Applied Biosciences at 1 site in Greece.

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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 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 Greece. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

T cell receptor profiling as a potential biomarker in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (time frame: 4 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 17 Oct 2024.
