ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying new ways to understand why some advanced breast cancers respond well to modern treatments while others do not. Researchers are looking at patients with breast cancer that has spread beyond the breast (called metastatic breast cancer) and are focusing on how different types of treatments—such as targeted drugs and immune therapies—work or stop working over time. The goal is to find patterns in the patient’s tumor genetics and other factors that can help doctors predict which treatments will be most effective for each person, so patients get the best care without unnecessary side effects.

Women aged 18 and older with advanced breast cancer, including those with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-positive or low, or triple-negative types, may be eligible to join. Participants will have had at least one cycle of treatment before being included in the study. If you join, you can expect to provide some medical information and biological samples, such as blood or tissue, which will be analyzed using advanced technologies. This helps researchers develop a tool that could guide future treatment decisions. It’s important to know that this study focuses on patients whose cancer has already spread, and participation involves sharing health data and samples to improve understanding of how to fight advanced breast cancer better.
