Analysis of Circulating Tumor mArkers in Blood 4 - ALCINA 4 (ALCINA4)
Multi-cohort exploratory prospective study. Participation in the ALCINA 4 study does not change the standard management of the patient, including the treatments administered. A sampling schedule will be set up for each cohort.
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts. There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 12 or 18 months. If a specific tumor sample is required, it will be collected only once during the study.
Study Overview
Detailed Description
The ALCINA 4 study is a prospective biological cohort study based on the analysis of circulating tumour biomarkers obtained by blood sampling, with comparison - if necessary - with tumour material obtained by biopsy.
Circulating tumour biomarkers in blood have been the subject of much research for several decades, leading to the development in the 1980s of serum protein markers still in use today (CA15.3, ACE, CA125...). In the last decade, research has focused on circulating tumour cells (CTCs), circulating endothelial cells (CECs) and more recently on the detection of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) and exosomes (or microvesicles). While ctDNA seems to have a very promising future, other circulating elements such as microRNA are also part of what can/will be studied from a simple blood sample. Broadly speaking, the potential clinical interests of these circulating biomarkers are :
- diagnostic (diagnosis of cancer, or especially diagnosis of genetic mutations present in a known cancer)
- prognostic (to adapt the intensity of treatment to the expected outcome of the patient)
- predictive of the efficacy of targeted therapies (according to the mutational profile of the cancer)
- to study mechanisms of resistance during treatment . The multiplicity of these potential blood biomarkers is matched by a large number of detection techniques, for example for CTCs or ctDNA.
The major new challenge in research on circulating biomarkers is to replace molecular analyses on tumour tissue obtained by biopsy (e.g. the search for somatic cancer mutations) by a simple blood sample ("liquid biopsy"). This objective, which is technologically possible in the very short term and particularly interesting - both medically (for patients) and economically - requires the comparison of data from blood markers with those from tumour tissue samples. Furthermore, there is an important trend to combine several levels of analysis together (e.g. ctDNA and serum protein markers) to refine the performance of blood tests.

Other: Cohort 1: "SENOLOC"
Detecting residual disease after surgery is absolutely crucial in oncology, as this detection could allow the personalisation of post-operative treatments based on the presence of residual disease. The laboratory wishes to develop a new technique for the detection of circulating tumour DNA, based on the recognition of translocation fragments in circulating DNA by shallow whole genome sequencing. This is an original approach, which to our knowledge has not been tested so far with the envisaged bioinformatics approach and could potentially be more sensitive than the techniques currently used to detect residual disease after surgical removal of localised (non-metastatic) breast cancer. The analysis will therefore focus on the search for tumour chromosomal translocations, which will need to be differentiated from possible germline chromosomal translocations. The collection of constitutional DNA is therefore planned in this cohort. |
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
|
Other: Cohort 2: "Immuno-TNBC "
The aim for this cohort is to study the role that variations in circulating tumour DNA might have as a marker associated with response during chemoimmunotherapy. A fresh biopsy (subsequently stored frozen) is required for mutational profiling analysis (which will be used to track circulating tumour DNA in the blood). In addition, it will be used to analyse currently recognised biological tissue factors of response to chemoimmunotherapy (PD-L1 labelling, mutational load, ...) and to identify possible associations with circulating tumour DNA variations. Constitutional DNA analysis is necessary for the determination of point mutations present in the tumour (to be differentiated from polymorphisms present at the constitutional level), as the determination of these mutations is essential to monitor circulating tumour DNA and will therefore be collected. |
If a specific tumor sample is required, it will be collected only once during the study
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
|
Other: Cohort 3: "Trans-TNBC"
The objective of this cohort is the development of new plasma tests, for example based on the detection of chromosomal translocations of circulating tumor DNA. The hypothesis is that these tests would allow the detection of relapse, the prediction of treatment efficacy and the monitoring of treatment efficacy at different stages of cancer in patients with triple-negative breast cancer, either in the non-metastatic phase with planned neo-adjuvant treatment, or in the metastatic phase. The number of inclusions between these 2 populations (neo-adjuvant and metastatic) will be monitored at the operational level to avoid an excessive imbalance towards one group. |
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
|
Other: Cohort 4: "Treg"
The purpose of this cohort, based on the previous results, is to:
In the context of this ALCINA-4 cohort n°4, for breast and ovary patients, 40 ml of blood will be collected and tumor fragments obtained from surgery (50 breast patients) or therapeutically required biopsy (30 ovary patients). No additional biopsy than the ones belonging to the therapeutic process will be performed in this protocol. Biopsies performed as part of standard of care will be used if sufficient material is available. |
If a specific tumor sample is required, it will be collected only once during the study
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
|
Other: Cohort 5: "Pembro Neo"
The purpose of this cohort is to determine the detection rate of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) before and after surgery in the blood of patients who received neoadjuvant treatment with chemoimmunotherapy for early triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). There will be two subgroups : patients who have not yet started neoadjuvant treatment (subcohort 1) and patients who have already started neoadjuvant treatment (subcohort 2). Biopsy of a tumour lesion will be performed before the start of neoadjuvant treatment (only for subcohort 1). The collection of constitutional DNA, plasma and circulating tumour DNA are planned in this cohort at different time points. |
If a specific tumor sample is required, it will be collected only once during the study
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
|
Other: Cohort 6: "THL"
The main objective of this exploratory cohort is to characterize the detection rate of ctDNA before and during therapy with T-DXd (Trastuzumab deruxtecan) for patients with HER2-low metastatic breast cancer, requiring treatment with T-DXd. Tumor biopsy will be performed after inclusion and before the start of treatment on cycle 1 day 1 for at least 30 patients. The collection of constitutional DNA, is planned in this cohort at different time points : T1 and T2 (before treatment start) are critical to evaluate the intra-patient reproducibility of liquid biomarkers. T3 will investigate the response to therapy while T4 will focus on resistance mechanisms. |
If a specific tumor sample is required, it will be collected only once during the study
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
|
Other: Cohort 7:"CDK4/6 adjuvant"
The purpose of this cohort is to determine the prognostic impact of circulating tumor DNA detection and monitoring in patients receiving a CDK4/6 inhibitor in adjuvant breast cancer. 50 ml of blood will be collected in EDTA tubes for constitutional DNA and plasma for research of circulating biomarkers at different time points (4 time points). |
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
|
Other: Cohort 8:"ctDNA adjuvant "
The purpose of this cohort is to estimate the incidence of ctDNA detection in patients with early-stage breast cancer during follow-up to detect metastatic relapse earlier in asymptomatic patients. ctDNA analysis will be performed using various techniques, including next-generation sequencing (NGS), with or without analysis of tumor tissue, taken as part of the standard care. 40 ml of blood samples will be collected at four time points:
|
If a specific tumor sample is required, it will be collected only once during the study
Depending on the clinical context studied and the biomarkers studied and/or sought, the timing of blood samples will vary between cohorts.
There may be up to 4 samples taken per patient for up to 24 months.
