NCT ID NCT04562623

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is looking at how the immune system responds to breast and ovarian cancers. Researchers will analyze tumor and blood samples from 160 women before surgery to understand immune cell activity and find markers that might predict survival. The goal is to learn more about how the body fights these cancers, not to test a new treatment.
