New model aims to predict who will respond to breast cancer immunotherapy
NCT ID NCT06833723
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at tumor and blood samples from 1,000 breast cancer patients who received immunotherapy. Researchers will analyze the samples using advanced techniques to build a model that predicts whether a patient will respond to treatment. No new drugs are tested; the goal is to improve how doctors choose treatments.
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 help doctors predict which breast cancer patients will benefit from immunotherapy, avoiding ineffective treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study using existing data, not a treatment trial. The model may not be accurate enough for real-world use.

Who is studied
Study Population Description: The study population consists of female breast cancer patients who received or are expected to receive immunotherapy/neoadjuvant immunotherapy at our institution. The study is divided into two cohorts: Retrospective Cohort (2015-2023): Includes patients who received immunotherapy/neoadjuvant immunotherapy between January 1, 2015, and September 30, 2023. Prospective Cohort (2023-Present): Includes patients who may receive immunotherapy/neoadjuvant immunotherapy starting from October 1, 2023. All participants are female, aged ≥ 18 years, and able to provide sufficient tumor tissue samples, blood samples, and imaging data.

Inclusion Criteria: \- Female, aged ≥ 18 years. Pathologically confirmed diagnosis of breast cancer. Patients who received immunotherapy/neoadjuvant immunotherapy at our institution between January 1, 2015, and September 30, 2023 (retrospective cohort), or patients who may receive immunotherapy/neoadjuvant immunotherapy starting from October 1, 2023 (prospective cohort). Availability of sufficient tumor tissue samples (e.g., fresh biopsy tissue, residual tumor tissue post-surgery). Availability of blood samples and imaging data. Signed informed consent (for the prospective cohort). Exclusion Criteria: * Male breast cancer patients. Inability to provide sufficient tumor tissue samples or other clinical data. Presence of severe comorbidities (e.g., active infections, severe cardiac, hepatic, or renal dysfunction) that may affect the safety assessment of immunotherapy. Lack of signed informed consent (for the prospective cohort).
