Circulating Cancer Cells/Macrophage HYbrid Cells in Patients With Breast Cancer.

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Breast Cancer
• Interventions: Other: Patients with breast cancer (stage I, II III or IV)

• Registration Number: NCT04818125
• Lead Sponsor: Institut Claudius Regaud

Brief Summary

Pilot, prospective, monocentric study aimed at evaluating the rate of patients with circulating cancer cell/macrophage hybrid cells in the peripheral blood.

The study will be conducted on a population of patients with breast cancer (regardless of stage of the disease and the immunohistochemical subtype).

For each included patient, blood samples will be taken and tumor specimens will be collected for the study.

At the end of the blood collection, the patient will have completed his participation in the study.
