Scientists launch biobank to decode breast Cancer's secrets
NCT ID NCT05134779
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is creating a 'live biobank' by collecting tumor samples from 400 breast cancer patients at key moments: diagnosis, surgery, and if the cancer returns or spreads. Researchers will grow mini-tumors from these samples and analyze their genes and immune cells. The goal is to better understand how breast cancer changes over time, not to test a new treatment.
