About this study

Official title: Genetic Risk Estimation of Breast Cancer Prior to Preventive Medication Uptake: A Pilot Study to Determine if a Polygenic Risk Score Influences the Decision to Accept Breast Cancer Preventive Medications (Tamoxifen, Raloxifene, or Exemestane) Amongst Non-BRCA Women at Risk

The primary aim of this study is to determine if the addition of an individual polygenic risk score (PRS), in addition to the standard National Cancer Institute's Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool (BCRAT) or Tyrer-Cuzick (IBIS) score, will aid women at risk of breast cancer in making a decision to take (or not take) medications to prevent breast cancer

Read the detailed description

This trial is a prospective pilot study looking to integrate a novel and retrospectively validated polygenic risk score (PRS), based on 77 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs), into a standard breast cancer prevention consultation for non-BRCA women. In order to be eligible for trial participation, women will need to have a BCRAT estimate of ≥3% for the 5 year risk of developing breast cancer (which corresponds to the United States Preventative Services Task Force threshold for moderate to strong benefit from breast cancer preventing medications such as tamoxifen or raloxifene.

At the time of the breast cancer prevention consultation, women will be offered participation in this study by a clinical trials nurse and informed written consent will be obtained. For consenting patients, a single 7 to 10 ml blood sample will be taken and couriered to the MAYO clinic for sample analysis and several surveys will be administered. One of the surveys will assess the participants understanding and intention to take or not take breast cancer preventing medications. The decision to take or not take a breast cancer preventing medication will be deferred until a subsequent follow up visit.

On the second visit, the PRS test results will be reviewed with the patient and a recommendation regarding preventive medications will be made. The PRS score will risk stratify patients into one of three lifetime risk categories of developing breast cancer (low risk (<15 % lifetime risk), above average risk (15 to <40% risk) and high risk (>40%)). Participants will then answer a second survey in which their understanding of their breast cancer risk and intention to take breast cancer preventing medications will be assessed.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Polygenic Risk ScoreGenetic

    Also called PRS

    A Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) is a blood based genetic test which assesses 77 common breast cancer susceptibility loci (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms). The PRS has been retrospectively validated and categorizes women into three categories of lifetime risk of developing breast cancer: Low Risk (<15% lifetime risk), Above Average Risk (15 to 40%), and high risk (>40%).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Polygenic Risk Score in people with Breast Cancer, run by Mayo Clinic at 2 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient self-reported intention to take a breast cancer preventing medication (time frame: up to 6 months after initial consultation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Dec 2020.
