Abstract OT1-11-01: The BRandO BiO registry – A multicenter regional registry for patients with primary breast and ovarian cancer with longitudinal biobanking and evaluation of epidemiological, life style and quality of life factors

Background: Further progress in the treatment of breast cancer will likely come from contributions of molecular biology and immunologic approaches. The search for druggable molecular aberrations may enable treatment based on the molecular profile. A better identification of patients with a high risk of relapse facilitates the selection of these pts for clinical trials investigating early therapeutic molecular-based interventions. Trial Design: The BRandO BiO Registry is a multi-center regional registry to record clinical, epidemiological, and biological data from patients with newly diagnosed breast and ovarian cancer at the University of Ulm, Dept. of Gynecology and 19 affiliated network hospitals and practices in the Alb-Allgau Bodensee region (outreach area of the Comprehensive Cancer Center Ulm). Longitudinal biobanking is included with collection of paraffin-embedded samples of the primary tumor as well as blood samples at first diagnosis, after 6 and 12 months and at first relapse to isolate and investigate cell-free and germline DNA. Epidemiological, life style and quality of life (QOL) questionnaires are collected at first diagnosis, after 12, 36 and 60 months. The follow up is planned for 10 years. Eligibility criteria: Patients with primary newly diagnosed untreated breast or ovarian cancer of ≥ 18 years are eligible; primary metastatic untreated disease is allowed. Exclusion criteria comprise severe neurological or psychiatric disorders interfering with the ability to give an informed consent, no consent for registration, storage and processing of the individual disease characteristics and bio samples, and any malignant tumor in the last 3 years (except in situ disease). Specific aims: To register the majority of patients with newly diagnosed breast or ovarian cancer in all BRandO-BiO participating centers of a well-defined geographical area. To assess clinical characteristics and outcome data (event-free survival, overall survival) of these patients. To evaluate the primary tumor of all patients for mutational (druggable) aberrations. Further to assess cell-free DNA in the serial blood samples at baseline, 6 and 12 months and correlate these results with clinical outcome data as well as tumor and patient characteristics to look for early markers predicting relapse. To perform a longitudinal assessment of the patients9 sociodemographic factors, comorbidities, lifestyle and QOL factors by analyzing serial questionnaires collected at recruitment and at 12, 36 and 60 months. Present accrual and target accrual: The BRandO BiO Registry started January 2016 in the Dept. of Gynecology, University of Ulm and February 2017 at the network hospitals and practices. Until June 2018, 1180 patients with primary breast or ovarian cancer have been enrolled. The current adherence to serial blood testing and serial questionnaires is good with a return rate of 90%. A sample size of 3000 patients is planned.
