NSABP Biospecimen Discovery Project

October 4, 2021 updated by: NSABP Foundation Inc
This study is a biospecimen discovery project that will serve as a pilot for a comprehensive 'omics approach using fresh core biopsy tissue and blood samples for DNA and protein analysis, as well as paired tumor-normal exome DNA and RNA sequencing.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Active, not recruiting

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study will be conducted at select NSABP sites where investigators are willing to give paclitaxel plus trastuzumab or a trastuzumab/pertuzumab-based combination as the initial component of neoadjuvant therapy as a pilot for a comprehensive 'omics approach using next generation sequencing and protein expression and post-translational modification analysis using mass spectrometry (MS) based and Reverse Phase Protein Array-based proteomics. Tumor samples will be obtained at baseline and 48 to 72 hours after initial drug treatment to study variation in the biological responses to these agents. The study of tumors both before and early after the first treatment probes the biological responses to treatment and is rich source of predictive biomarkers.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Women with locally advanced, HER2-positive breast cancer from selected sites in the United States

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The diagnosis of invasive adenocarcinoma of the breast must have been made by core needle biopsy or limited incisional biopsy.
  • The breast cancer must be HER2-positive based on current ASCO/CAP (American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists) Guideline Recommendations for Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Testing in Breast Cancer.
  • The patient must have a mass in the breast measuring greater than or equal to 2.0 cm by physical exam and/or ultrasound that is accessible and safe for repeat biopsy. Patients with a diagnosis of inflammatory breast cancer are eligible if there is a palpable or detectable breast mass that is accessible and safe for repeat biopsy.
  • Planned initial treatment with a combination of paclitaxel and trastuzumab or a trastuzumab/pertuzumab-based combination. Schedule for paclitaxel/trastuzumab or trastuzumab/pertuzumab administration is per the investigator.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Excisional biopsy or lumpectomy performed prior to registration.
  • Previous therapy with chemotherapy or targeted therapy for any malignancy.
  • Treatment, including radiation therapy (RT), chemotherapy, and/or targeted therapy, administered for the currently diagnosed breast cancer prior to registration.
  • Other nonmalignant systemic disease that would preclude the patient from receiving chemotherapy and targeted therapy.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Measure variation in biologic response by comprehensive tumor 'omics profiling in patients receiving an upfront regimen containing paclitaxel plus trastuzumab or a trastuzumab/pertuzumab-based combination
Time Frame: blood and tissue specimens will be collected at the time of diagnosis; prior to treatment; 48 and 72 hours following first dose of treatment; and following surgery, if tumor remains.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
