Prospective Biobanking Study in Cancer Patients Aiming at Better Understand the Link Between the Molecular Alterations of the Tumor Itself, Its Microenvironment and Immune Response (SCANDARE) (SCANDARE)

January 30, 2026 updated by: Institut Curie
SCANDARE is a prospective biobanking study on tumor (+/- nodes), plasma and blood samples at different time points in ovarian, triple negative breast, Head and Neck Cancer, advanced stage treatment-naïve cervical or vulva cancer and sarcoma (breast angiosarcoma and uterine sarcoma) cancers. This study will allowed to identify new molecular and/or immunological biomarkers associated with clinical and biological features of the tumors. All patients will receive standard treatment according to the stage of the diseases and usual procédures.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients will have blood and +/- tumor samples at the following times :

  1. if eligible for surgery :

    • at surgery (blood + tumor and nodes)
    • after surgery (blood)
    • 6 months after surgery if non recurrence (Blood)
    • before cycle 1 of adjuvant chemotherapy or before radiotherapy (blood + tumor biopsie and nodes if possible)
    • before cycle 2 of adjuvant chemotherapy or after radiotherapy (blood)
    • at progression (blood + tumor biopsie and nodes if possible)
  2. if eligible for neoadjuvant chemotherapy :

    • before neoadjuvant therapy (blood + tumor biopsie and nodes)
    • during neoadjuvant therapy (post cycle 1) (blood)
    • at the time of surgery (blood + tumor and nodes)
    • 6 months after surgery if non recurrence (Blood)
    • before cycle 1 of adjuvant chemotherapy or before radiotherapy (blood + tumor biopsie and nodes)
    • before cycle 2 of adjuvant chemotherapy or after radiotherapy (blood)
    • at progression (blood + tumor biopsie and nodes)
