Breast Cancer Women on Aromatase Inhibitors Treatment

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective of the study is to improve the life quality of women treated with AI. Cohort B-ABLE is designed to evaluate musculoskeletal events derived of using AI in breast cancer women. The project objectives are the analysis of the AI deleterious effect on bone microarchitecture and early determination of the risk of fragility fracture with dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), lumbar spine Rx, Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) and microindentation. Determination of physiological causes of the AI-related arthralgia by analyzing joint degradation markers, steroid hormone levels remaining in blood and functional magnetic resonance, before and after three months of AI treatment

Clinical Trial Description

Postmenopausal women with breast cancer treated with aromatase inhibitors (AI) have a higher incidence of osteoporosis, fractures and other musculoskeletal symptoms, particularly pain and stiffness. B-ABLE is a clinical, prospective cohort study carried out in both Breast Cancer and Bone Metabolism Units of the Hospital del Mar in Barcelona. Currently, 780 postmenopausal Caucasian women with early breast cancer and candidates for adjuvant AI treatment were included and predicted to reach more than 1000 patients. The main objective of the study is to improve the life quality of women treated with AI. Cohort B-ABLE is designed to evaluate musculoskeletal events derived of using AI in breast cancer women. The project objectives are the analysis of the AI deleterious effect on bone microarchitecture and early determination of the risk of fragility fracture with DEXA, lumbar spine Rx, TBS and microindentation. Determination of physiological causes of the AI-related arthralgia by analyzing joint degradation markers, steroid hormone levels remaining in blood and functional magnetic resonance, before and after three months of AI treatment. The study results will help to decide the most appropriate treatment for each patient in order to minimize AI-related side effects and hence avoid discontinuation of adjuvant therapy treatment. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
