Official Title: A Prospective Observational Study About Adjuvant or Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Related Adverse Effects in Postmenopausal Women With Breast Cancer
Study ID: NCT03543072
Brief Summary: Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumor in women. About 69.75% of breast cancer women patients in China are over 45 years old. It is a multicenter prospective observational study. We collect the basic information, medical history, chemotherapy-related adverse reactions, and the results of blood lipid and bone density test before, during and after adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The purpose of the study is to investigate the risk factors for hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis in postmenopausal breast cancer patients before and after chemotherapy, and to assess the risk of future arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease and osteoporotic fractures. In addition, the collected information of the subjects are analyzed to provide suggestions for the relevant prevention strategy.
Detailed Description: Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumor in women. About 69.75% of breast cancer women patients in China are over 45 years old. Chemotherapy is one of the important treatments for breast cancer, but it brings a series of adverse effects, especially increasing the risk of hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. It is a multicenter prospective observational study. The postmenopausal breast cancer women patients who are planning adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy are enrolled in the study after signing the informed consent form and passing the screening. We collect the basic information, medical history, chemotherapy-related adverse reactions, and the results of blood lipid and bone density test before, during and after chemotherapy. The purpose of the study is to investigate the risk factors for hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis in postmenopausal breast cancer patients before and after chemotherapy, and to assess the risk of future arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease and osteoporotic fractures in this population.In addition, the collected information of the subjects are analyzed to provide suggestions for the relevant prevention strategy.
