NCT02415387

Brief Summary

This randomized clinical trial uses an inactive typhoid vaccine to briefly stimulate an immune response in patients with stage I-IIIA breast cancer who received primary cancer treatment and studies whether patients' fitness levels affect how their bodies handle a challenge to their immune system. A vaccine is a substance or group of substances meant to cause the immune system to respond to a tumor or to microorganisms such as bacteria or viruses. Immune responses may cause excess inflammation in the body and behavioral changes, such as depression, fatigue, pain, and problems with thinking and reasoning. Studying immune responses in patients with breast cancer who have undergone primary cancer treatment may help doctors learn whether physical fitness can protect the body from effects of immune system stress and whether it may be able to reduce health problems in patients with breast cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • AUC Change in Level of IL-6

    AUC change refers to the 'net incremental' area, which is the area under the curve above the baseline value. Data points used in AUC change calculation include baseline, 1.5, 3, 5, 6.5, 8 hours post vaccine. This can be calculated geometrically by applying the trapezoid rule. When a value falls below the baseline, only the area above the baseline level is included.

    Baseline, 1.5, 3, 5, 6.5, 8 hours post vaccine

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • AUC Change in Pain

    baseline, 2, 3.5, 5, 6.5, 8.5 hours post vaccine

  • AUC Change in Fatigue

    baseline, 2, 3.5, 5, 6.5, 8.5 hours post vaccine

Eligibility Criteria

Age35 Years - 80 Years
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Women who have been diagnosed with stage I-IIIA breast cancer will be recruited 1-10 years after the completion of all primary cancer treatment except for longer-term hormonal therapies (tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors)
  • All women will be postmenopausal

You may not qualify if:

  • A prior history of any other malignancy except basal or squamous cell skin cancers, strokes, diabetes, current heart disease or uncontrolled hypertension, peripheral vascular disease, liver disease, autoimmune and/or inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis and ulcerative colitis, and other medical conditions that would limit participation in the assessments (e.g., pulmonary disease, orthopedic problems, major psychiatric illness, major cognitive dysfunction, or an acute medical problem)
  • Anemia
  • Alcohol or drug abuse
  • Smoking
  • Women who have received a typhoid vaccine within the last three years

Limitations and Caveats

Our study focused on the initial, rapid inflammatory response, and we did not assess antibody responses to the vaccine, one limitation.
