About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about breast cancer lipodome signature in patients waiting for surgery with different Body Mass Index.

The main question it aims to answer are:

  • To highlight a specific lipidome molecular signature for breast cancer patients overweight and obese (BMI > 25 Kg/m2) compared with patients of normal weight (BMI<25 kg/m2).
  • Evaluate the effect of the pool of biochemical, nutritional and anatomical-pathological data of breast cancer patients and the correlation between molecular profile and body weight.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Correlation lipidome and BMI

    Evaluate the correlation between some biomarkers derived from the lipidomic study (e.g. palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, palmitoleic acid and sapienic acid, arachidonic acid, dihomogammalinolenic acid, EPA, DHA, etc…) according to the BMI class considered.

    Measured: First day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation lipidome and nutrition/anatomical-pathological

    Evaluate the correlation of molecular data with biochemical, nutritional and anatomical-pathological data of the patients and of the tumor (NLR -neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio), glycemia, cholesterol, blood pressure, triglycerides; TILs (percentage of lymphocytic infiltrate) and Ki67 (proliferation factor) on the surgical sample; W/H ratio, % FAT, % LEAN, phase angle at bioimpedance analysis in the study sample.

    Measured: First day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lipidomic analysis for breast cancer patients in people with Breast Cancer and Lipid Cell; Tumor, run by Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS at 1 site in Italy.

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 0 inclusion and 13 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Correlation lipidome and BMI (time frame: First day). 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 27 Sep 2024.
