About this trial

The purpose of this research is to learn if the CellSearch Circulating Tumor Cells (CTC) test can help doctors in making decisions about treatment and monitoring of breast cancer. The test consists of diagnostic CTC counts (enumeration) and expression of biomarkers Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 (HER2), Estrogen Receptor (ER), and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cell free DNA/RNA (cfDNA/RNA) analysis.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Invasive breast cancer with radiographic and/or clinical evidence of advanced metastatic or unresectable disease.

HR+/HER2 negative or triple negative (TN) subjects prior to starting first line therapy or beyond in the metastatic setting.

Subject must have the CTC HER2, ER, PD-L1, and cfDNA/RNA tests ordered during routine patient care.

Age > 18 years.

Disqualifiers

Participant is pregnant.

Inability to provide blood samples based on the judgment of the treating physician.

Trial population

Advanced/metastatic breast cancer of following subtypes/lines of systemic therapy in metastatic setting: * Estrogen Receptor (ER)+/Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 (HER2) - or Triple Negative (TN) patients prior to starting any line of systemic therapy * HER2+ patients prior to starting 2nd line or later therapy
