NCT ID NCT02610413

Summary

This study aims to understand why some breast cancer patients develop severe high blood pressure when taking the drug bevacizumab. Researchers will analyze the DNA of about 350 patients who either did or did not experience this side effect. The goal is to find genetic markers that could predict who is at risk, helping doctors manage treatment better in the future.
