Trial Title: Biomarkers in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer

NCT ID: NCT05871788

Condition: Identify the Number of Eligible Patients for Immunotherapy According to the Epidemiological and Biological Profile in Tunisia

Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Overall status: Not yet recruiting

Study design:

Time perspective: Prospective

Intervention:

Intervention type: Diagnostic Test
Intervention name: identify biomarkers
Description: Identify the epidemiological profile of the biological signature (PD-L1 / TMB / MSI/HRD/ TILs) of patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast carcinoma

Summary: In order to allow Tunisian patients with breast cancer to access immunotherapies, and innovative treatments to extend life expectancy of patients with breast cancer with a poor prognosis, it is important to study the epidemiological profile of Tunisian cancers breast, in terms of PD-L1 expression, tumor mutational burden (TMB), microsatellite instability status (MSI) and rate of TILs, in metastatic and locally advanced cases, in Tunis, over a one-year follow-up period. It is also important to study other inflammatory and tumor biomarkers which would have a prognostic or even therapeutic value: - serum dosage of LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) - IL-6 (interleukin 6) - CRP (C-reactive protein) - absolute count of lymphocytes (CLA) and eosinophils - quantification of circulating tumor DNA before treatment and under treatment. The primary objective id to identify the epidemiological profile of the biological signature (PD-L1 / TMB / MSI/HRD/ TILs) of patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast carcinoma before and during the systemic treatment.

Detailed description: Procedure: 1. Verification of the inclusion / non-inclusion criteria 2. Signing the consent form 3. Surgical, Medical and family history, ongoing treatments 4. Clinical Examination1 5. Radiological examinations 2 6. TNM Classification (Appendix 3) 7. Standard biochemical assessment 3 8. Inflammatory assessment (CRP, LDH, IL6) 9. Hematological assessment (NFS, platelets) 10. Tumor markers (ACE, CA15-3) 11. Histological and molecular examination 4: - Expression PD-L1 by IHC (Immuno-Histochemistry) - TILs by IHC - - MSI status: MMR * proteins (Mismatch Repair Protein) (Appendix 4) by NGS via TruSight™ Oncology 500 Kit (Illumina) , if PD-L1>1% - Score HRD : by NGS via TruSight™ Oncology 500 Kit (Illumina) , if PD-L1>1% - TMB mutational burden by next generation sequencing "Next Generation Sequencing" (NGS) via TruSight™ Oncology 500 Kit (Illumina) if PD-L1>1% - tDNA by digital PCR 12. Radiological evaluation5 13. Indication of surgery? (if yes type of surgery to be specified) 14. Evaluation of adverse events / effects: Tolerance of the previous treatment 15.
