NCT ID NCT06762483

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study aims to create a blood test (liquid biopsy) that can detect two key genetic mutations, ESR1 and gBRCA, in patients with a common type of metastatic breast cancer (HR+/HER2-). The test would help doctors choose the most effective treatments without needing a tissue biopsy. Researchers will also build a digital gene library to support this diagnostic approach. The study involves 80 participants and is currently recruiting.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
liquid biopsy (blood test)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple blood test that helps doctors choose the right treatments for people with metastatic breast cancer, potentially improving outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage diagnostic study with only 80 participants, so the test may not prove accurate enough for widespread use. It does not test a new treatment, so direct patient benefit is not guaranteed.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) and/or progesterone receptor-positive (PgR+) breast cancer through histological and/or cytological examination by the local laboratory Participants must exhibit HER2-negative breast cancer 1. or 2+). If IHC is 2+, a negative in situ hybridization (Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), Chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH), or Silver-enhanced in situ hybridization (SISH)) test is required by local laboratory testing. * Participants should be in an advanced or metastatic setting including both those prior to the initiation of treatment for metastatic disease and those who experienced progression following treatment with cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK)4/6 inhibitors. However, the primary tumor should be treated according to the standard of care. * Written informed consent must be signed and dated by the patient and the investigator prior to inclusion. Exclusion Criteria: * Unable to provide written informed consent
