Brief Summary

The investigators have already proven that Mitotic Activity Index (MAI)is the most robust measure of proliferation in breast cancer tissue. The purpose was to study whether 18 and 2-4 hours pre-operative per-oral carbohydrate loading (often given in gastrointestinal surgery i.e. enhanced recovery after surgery=ERAS) influences proliferation in the tumor, serum insulin characteristics, metabolic profile and survival.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mitotic Activity Index (MAI)

    Proliferation in invasive front in tumor

    Trough completion of surgery of all included patients, an average of 1,5 years

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • S-Insulin

    Analysed in serum samples at 5 time points; At inclusion (day 0), admission (day 10), preoperatively (day 11), postoperatively (day12) and at post operative visit (day 30)

  • Well being after surgery

    Day 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7 after surgery

  • High Resolution Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (HR-MRS) profiling of specific metabolites

    Immediately after surgery: tumor is fresh frozen. High Resolution Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (HR-MRS) will be done in the fresh frozen tumor and deep frozen serum samples (=as for insulin characteristics)

  • Relapse Free Survival

    Until 8 years (97 months of follow up)

  • Breast Cancer Specific Survival

    8 years follow-up (97 months of follow up)

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Carbohydrate/intervention group

EXPERIMENTAL

Breast cancer patients receive 2 x preoperative carbohydrate loading \[PreOP(TM)\] before surgery; the 1st dose 18 hours before and 2nd dose 2-4 hours before surgery.

Dietary Supplement: PreOP

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Breast cancer patients receive standard prep fasting procedure with nil food per os 8-10 hours before surgery, drinking tap water until 2 hours before surgery.

Interventions

PreOPDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Mixture of Carbohydrates; standard amount designed for enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) i.e. preoperative carbohydrate loading before long standing surgery to enhance recovery.

Carbohydrate/intervention group
