Could selenoproteins be the key to fighting a tough breast cancer?
NCT ID NCT05817227
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is looking at proteins called selenoproteins in people with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a hard-to-treat type. Researchers will measure these proteins in tumor samples and blood from 300 patients and 100 healthy women. The goal is to see if selenoproteins can help predict outcomes or serve as targets for future treatments.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could identify new ways to predict or treat triple-negative breast cancer by targeting selenoproteins.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to direct therapies, and results may not apply to all breast cancer types.
