Blood protein profile may forecast Triple-Negative breast cancer relapse
NCT ID NCT04438681
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a set of proteins in the blood can predict if triple-negative breast cancer will come back after treatment. Researchers will follow 90 women and test their blood at several time points. The goal is to find a simple way to identify patients who need closer monitoring.
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 lead to a blood test that helps doctors predict which triple-negative breast cancer patients are at higher risk of cancer returning.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The protein profile may not prove accurate enough for routine use, and results may not change patient outcomes directly.
