Breast Cancer Organelle Properties and Protein Expression Atlas in the Three Immunohistochemical Subtypes of Breast Cancers


Sponsor

Enrollment

1,050 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This trial is a translational, open-label, monocentric and prospective cohort study of participants with breast cancer aiming to create a combined ESPRESSO (= organelle properties) phenotype and spatial proteomics data collection encompassing four cohorts: * TN eBC = cohort A, * HER2+ eBC = cohort B, * Luminal eBC = cohort C, * dnMBC = cohort D. In total 1050 participants will be enrolled in the study. Laboratory analysis (including ESPRESSO technique) will be conducted on the biological specimen collected during this study. The primary objective is to describe the amount of fatty acids accumulated in lipid droplets, within the four cohorts. As a secondary objective, the analysis will expand to other organelles like lysosomal acidity and nuclear organization. The study is due to last 9 years (4 years of recruitment and 5 years of study participation)


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is analyzing detailed biological properties of breast cancer cells — including their protein expression and cellular structures — across the three main subtypes of breast cancer: triple-negative, HER2-positive, and hormone receptor-positive (luminal). The goal is to build an atlas that helps researchers better understand and treat each subtype. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older (any gender) - You have been diagnosed with breast cancer confirmed by biopsy - You have early breast cancer or newly diagnosed metastatic breast cancer - Your tumor falls into one of the three main immunohistochemical subtypes (triple-negative, HER2-positive, luminal A-like, or luminal B-like) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your cancer is not one of the three main breast cancer subtypes covered by the study - You have previously treated metastatic breast cancer (not newly diagnosed) - You are unable to provide a tissue sample for analysis Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

OTHERTumor biopsy

As fresh tumor material is required for laboratory analysis purposes (ESPRESSO technique), tumor biopsies will be performed specifically for this study.
