NCT04438681

Brief Summary

The INSTIGO study aims to assess a plasma protein profile at different stages of patient follow-up as a predictive factor of metastatic recurrence in triple negative breast cancer. It also aims to look at other potential biomarkers of metastatic relapse such as Tumor-infiltrating Lymphocytes, circulating tumor DNA, figurative elements in blood, or a tumor RNA signature.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Identification at diagnosis of a plasma protein profile predictive of metastatic relapse in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC)

    \- Plasma concentrations of a set of proteins at diagnosis (measured in g/L)

    8 years

  • Identification at diagnosis of a plasma protein profile predictive of metastatic relapse in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC)

    \- Time to metastatic relapse

    8 years

Secondary Outcomes (12)

  • Identification of a plasma protein profile predictive of metastatic relapse in patients with TNBC : on the day of primary surgery or post-chemotherapy surgery, the day the radiotherapy begins, at 6 months after radiotherapy and one year post-radiotherapy

    8 years

  • Identification of a plasma protein profile predictive of metastatic relapse in patients with TNBC : on the day of primary surgery or post-chemotherapy surgery, the day the radiotherapy begins, at 6 months after radiotherapy and one year post-radiotherapy

    8 years

  • Identification of a characteristic plasma protein profile at the time of metastatic relapse

    8 years

  • Evaluation of the relationship between the rate of tumour lymphocyte infiltration at diagnosis and metastatic relapse.

    8 years

  • Evaluation of the relationship between ctDNA plasma levels and metastatic disease relapse

    8 years

  • +7 more secondary outcomes
