Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about breast cancer lipodome signature in patients waiting for surgery with different Body Mass Index.

The main question it aims to answer are:
  • To highlight a specific lipidome molecular signature for breast cancer patients overweight and obese (BMI > 25 Kg/m2) compared with patients of normal weight (BMI<25 kg/m2).

  • Evaluate the effect of the pool of biochemical, nutritional and anatomical-pathological data of breast cancer patients and the correlation between molecular profile and body weight.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Lipidomic analysis for breast cancer patients

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Correlation lipidome and BMI [First day]

    Evaluate the correlation between some biomarkers derived from the lipidomic study (e.g. palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, palmitoleic acid and sapienic acid, arachidonic acid, dihomogammalinolenic acid, EPA, DHA, etc…) according to the BMI class considered.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Correlation lipidome and nutrition/anatomical-pathological [First day]

    Evaluate the correlation of molecular data with biochemical, nutritional and anatomical-pathological data of the patients and of the tumor (NLR -neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio), glycemia, cholesterol, blood pressure, triglycerides; TILs (percentage of lymphocytic infiltrate) and Ki67 (proliferation factor) on the surgical sample; W/H ratio, % FAT, % LEAN, phase angle at bioimpedance analysis in the study sample.

Patients

  • Age <65 years (not to have influence on functioning of desaturase enzymes that decline with older ages).

  • Absence of serious intestinal and hepatic pathologies, diabetes, both insulin-dependent and in hypoglycaemic treatment or other pancreatic affection, thyroid affections in pharmacological treatment.

  • Absence of supplementation with omega-3 based supplements for at least 6 months.

  • Homogeneous distribution by BMI (1:1 ratio subjects with BMI≥25 and BMI<25, respectively).

  • Informed consent to participate in the study.

controls

  • Age <65 years;

  • Not be affected by cancer;

  • BMI <25kg/m2;
