Proteomic Signature in Breast Cancer: Correlation With Tumor Response to Neo-adjuvant Chemotherapy (SPAM)

September 15, 2026 updated by: Centre Oscar Lambret

Analysis of the Proteomic Signature in Breast Cancer Correlated With Tumor Response in Patients Necessitating a Neo-adjuvant Chemotherapy

The scope of the trial is to identify proteomic signatures correlated with tumor response to neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: FEC 100 + TAXOTERE

FEC 100 = Fluoro-uracile + Epirubicin + Cyclophosphamide Fluoro-uracile : 500 mg/m²/cycle Epirubicin : 100 mg/m²/cycle Cyclophosphamide : 500 mg/m²/cyle 1 cycle = 21 days. For a total of 6 cycles or 3 cycles followed by 3 cycles of TAXOTERE

TAXOTERE 100 mg/m²/cycle

1 cycle = 21 days. For a total of 3 cycles following 3 FEC 100

Taken at different times : inclusion, at the cycle 4 and at the cycle 6 during the neoadjuvant chemotherapy
Biopsy at the moment of inclusion, before neoadjuvant chemotherapy
Surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy
