About this study

This study aims to validate a prediction model of brain metastasis risk for females with HR+ breast cancer by using variables collected at diagnosis.

Read the detailed description
  1. Data collection: Age at BC diagnosis, tumor size, axillary adenopathy, clinical stage, HER2 status, Ki67 proliferation index and the modified Scarff-Bloom-Richardson grade of differentiation.
  2. Analysis Plan: Continuous variables as means and standard deviation (SD) if they follow a normal distribution; if not, as medians and IQR (interquartile range). Numbers and percentages display categorical variables.
  3. Model validation:

The association between covariates and the diagnosis of brain metastases by performing logistic regression analyses; odds ratio (OR), 95 % confidence intervals (CI), and p-value will be estimated. Variables with a p-value < 0.05 in the univariate logistic regression analysis will be further assessed in a multivariate logistic regression analysis.

For the clinical use of the model, we will use a score to each variable as that designed by Cacho-Díaz B. et. al. then, we will categorize patients into three risk groups according to the sum of the scores. We will employe a Cox regression analysis to assess each group's risk of developing brain metastases. Adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs), 95 % CIs, and p values will be evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, Estrogen Receptor-Positive, run by Assiut University.

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: opening soon, 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.

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?

Contact Moheb I Moheb Ibrahim Melek, MSc in clinical oncology (+201092655523, mohebmelek@med.aun.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Validity of prediction model of brain metastases risk for females with HR+ breast cancer (time frame: 2 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.
