NCT ID NCT01840293
First seen Jan 07, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study is collecting tumor tissue from up to 1,780 people with primary or recurrent/metastatic breast cancer. Researchers will analyze proteins and genes in the tumors to better understand how breast cancer progresses and why it sometimes comes back. The goal is to find new markers that could guide future treatments, but this is a research study only and does not test any new drug or therapy.
