ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) can help doctors understand how well neoadjuvant therapy (treatment given before surgery) is working for patients with stage I-III breast cancer. ctDNA is a small piece of genetic material that comes from cancer cells and can be found in the blood. By monitoring ctDNA levels, researchers hope to see if it can be used as a reliable marker to track the response to treatment.

To be eligible for this study, participants must be at least 18 years old and diagnosed with stage I-III invasive breast cancer, and they should not have received any previous cancer treatment. The trial is open to all genders. Participants will have regular blood tests to check their ctDNA levels, and they will be monitored throughout the study to see how their cancer responds to the treatment. It’s important to note that some health conditions, like serious infections or other major diseases, may prevent someone from joining the trial. This study is currently recruiting, and it aims to provide valuable information that could improve treatment approaches for breast cancer in the future.
