NCT05265715
The scientific premise for this study is the known impact of overweight/obesity on breast cancer risk and outcomes, the association between advanced glycation end-products (AGE) and high fat, highly processed foods common in Western diets, and the preclinical evidence suggesting a link between AGE and breast cancer independent of weight. The association between dietary and serum AGE in breast cancer survivors and prognosis has not been previously evaluated. However, preclinical studies suggest that AGE may represent a novel, lifestyle-linked, modifiable, prognostic biomarker, which could be targeted through lifestyle (diet and exercise) and/or pharmaceutical interventions to improve breast cancer prognosis. The proposed study will pave the way for a large scale randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of a low AGE diet on weight (BMI), known (IL-6 and CRP) and novel (AGE and RAGE) prognostic biomarkers, and ultimately on breast cancer prognosis.
NCT06658080
Malignant hydrothorax and ascitic fluid in advanced breast cancer often arise from metastasis to the lungs, pleura, or liver. Patients with this condition experience rapid disease progression and multidrug resistance, facing limited treatment options. Clinical guidelines offer various therapies based on molecular subtypes; however, their effectiveness can be hindered by prior treatments, patient health, and tumor evolution. Current evaluations of treatment efficacy typically take two cycles, delaying the recognition of ineffective therapies and resulting in unnecessary side effects and costs. Organoid models present a promising solution, accurately replicating tumor structure and cellular diversity compared to traditional methods. These patient-derived models facilitate improved drug sensitivity testing, leading to more personalized treatment plans. In this study, 90 patients diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer accompanied by hydrothorax and ascitic fluid will be recruited. Patient-derived organoids will be used to assess the sensitivity of chemotherapy regimens, including Doxorubicin, Carboplatin, Cyclophosphamide, and Paclitaxel, along with targeted therapies such as Herceptin and Pertuzumab.
