September 3, 2025 updated by: Centre Jean Perrin

Multicenter Large-scale Validation Study of the Interest of Broadband Spectroscopy Analysis (Femto/Attosecond by Infrared Laser) on Liquid Biopsies in Breast Cancer Screening

The purpose of this study is to validate the interest of broadband spectroscopy analysis (femto/attosecond by infrared laser) on liquid biopsies in breast cancer screening.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Each patient will have one or more liquid biopsy during the follow-up according to the cohort and have a mammogram at the same time.

Biopsies will be analysed by broadband spectroscopy in order to compare the results to mammogram result.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Other
  • Allocation: Non-Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: Control cohort

In this cohort, women recruited participated to organised breast cancer screening. They must not have an invasive breast cancer.

They will have 3 liquid biopsy : the first at inclusion and then at each mammogram every two years (organised breast cancer screening).
Other: liquid biopsy
Blood sample collection during follow-up of the three cohorts of patients
Other: Patient cohort

In this cohort, women for who an invasive breast cancer has been diagnose will be included.

Only one liquid biopsy will be collected before any treatment.
Other: liquid biopsy
Blood sample collection during follow-up of the three cohorts of patients
Other: Exploratory cohort

In this cohort, women with high risk of BRCA1/2 mutation but without invasive breast cancer.

6 liquid biopsies will be collected : each year after inclusion during 5 years.
Other: liquid biopsy
Blood sample collection during follow-up of the three cohorts of patients

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
