What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying patients with breast cancer, focusing on those with metastatic disease who typically have the poorest outlook. The trial aims to improve treatment decisions and quality of care by analyzing tumor characteristics. Although national guidelines recommend molecular reassessment of metastatic tumors, biopsies are rare due to invasiveness, so the study explores blood-based methods to assess tumor features and their relation to treatment outcomes and health economics. The study involves two groups: about 3,500 patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer receiving any line of treatment, and approximately 10,000 patients with early breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy regardless of regimen. Blood samples will be collected during routine blood draws to analyze tumor molecular characteristics and biomarkers for progression and survival. Participants will be followed with assessments including quality of life, therapy adherence, depression factors, and adverse events at study entry and regularly up to 60 months. The study will measure progression-free survival in metastatic breast cancer and disease-free survival in early breast cancer, along with overall survival and health economic outcomes. Results of molecular testing will be shared with patients at study end, providing comprehensive data to support improved breast cancer care.
