研究概览
简要总结
The investigators have already proven that Mitotic Activity Index (MAI)is the most robust measure of proliferation in breast cancer tissue.
The purpose was to study whether 18 and 2-4 hours pre-operative per-oral carbohydrate loading (often given in gastrointestinal surgery i.e. enhanced recovery after surgery=ERAS) influences proliferation in the tumor, serum insulin characteristics, metabolic profile and survival.
详细描述
It has been postulated that a "Western-style" diet, rich in carbohydrates (especially high glycemic carbohydrates) may have an effect on the incidence of breast cancer, and perhaps also prognosis. This may be mediated through the insulin-related pathways in breast cells which may show insulin-dependent proliferation, which may alter outcome.
Aims:
To study:
- The inter-patient variation in insulin and insulin-related characteristics in the blood taken just before the operation from breast cancer patients, on a usual pre-operative fasting schedule;
- The influence of the variation in insulin and insulin-related characteristics on proliferation and other cell biological features in the breast cancers of these patients;
- Whether 4 and 18-hours pre-operative hyperglycaemic glucose loading (to reduce postoperative insulin resistance) influences proliferation (Mitotic Activity Index (MAI) and other cell biological features in breast cancer*
- The influence of the short-term effect of a pre-operative low-glycaemic carbohydrate isocaloric diet on proliferation and other cell biological features of the primary breast cancer cells (Low-glycemic isocaloric diet intervention study);
- Epidemiological risk factors: The correlation between epidemiological risk factors, insulin and insulin-related characteristics, proliferation, cell biological features and other biomarkers in breast cancer patients.
- Estrogen Receptor positive tumors will be analyses separately.
- Relapse free survival
- Breast Cancer Specific Survival.
The Short-term effect of carbohydrates will be assessed in a randomized intervention study, where 30 patients receive oral carbohydrates 18 and 4 hours before surgery and 30 patients receive fasting procedure/water.

研究组 & 干预措施
Carbohydrate/intervention group
Breast cancer patients receive 2 x preoperative carbohydrate loading [PreOP(TM)] before surgery; the 1st dose 18 hours before and 2nd dose 2-4 hours before surgery.
干预措施: PreOP (Dietary Supplement)
Control group
Breast cancer patients receive standard prep fasting procedure with nil food per os 8-10 hours before surgery, drinking tap water until 2 hours before surgery.
