Early Breast Cancer clinical trials for ER+

Recruiting
Updated: July 3, 2019

The purpose of this study is to determine if breast cancer genetic material (known as circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) can be detected in the bloodstream. It is hoped that this research will demonstrate the utility of this circulating material as an early marker of residual or recurrent breast cancer activity after treatment

Who is it for?

You may be eligible for this study if you are aged 18 or over and have confirmed non-metastatic adenocarcinoma of the breast.

Study details

You will require a blood test every three months for two years from the time of registration to the main study. As part of this study, you will also need to complete questionnaires that ask about your feelings towards the regular blood tests and thoughts of cancer return. If the ctDNA levels are detected in your bloodstream during the two year period, you will be asked to return to have a CT and/or bone scan.
