CDH1 Gene Inactivation clinical trials

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.

CDH1 Germline Mutations in Lobular Breast Cancer

Start date: December 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Invasive lobular breast carcinoma (ILBC) represents 5-15% of all invasive BCs. The CDH1 gene (OMIM no. 192090), located on the chromosome 16q22.1, encodes for the E-cadherin protein, a key regulator of cell adhesion. Loss of E-cadherin expression is frequently detected in LBC CDH1 germline loss-of-function mutations are associated with the autosomal dominant cancer-predisposition syndrome, hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC; OMIM no. 137215). The cumulative risk of LBC for women with a CDH1 mutation is estimated to be 42% (95% CI 23% to 68%) by 80 years, when it is a component of HDGC syndrome. Recently, some authors described CDH1 germline mutations in women with in situ or ILBC with early onset (<45 or <50) and bilateral in situ or ILBC with no family history of HDGC. These results are opening a new scenario, suggesting that CDH1 could be a susceptibility gene for LBC in women without a family history of DGC. The first aim of this study is to investigate prevalence of CDH1 in this specific population of women with early onset (<45 or <50) in situ or ILBC, bilateral LBC or LBC with no family history of HDGC.
