Project Title: | Metabolomics Analysis of Triple Negative Breast Cancer Cell Lines |
Project Type: | Metabolomics Analysis |
Project Summary: | To date there are no clinically approved targeted therapies for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). In addition to the absence of estrogen, progesterone, and HER2/neu receptors, TNBCs possess characteristics that make them some of the most aggressive forms of breast cancer (BCa). In terms of epidemiology, breast cancers with the triple negative profile present at a higher prevalence in premenopausal women under the age of 40, usually with a BMI greater than 30, and have higher incidences of mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes. Additionally, several studies have shown a higher prevalence in African American women, demonstrating a health disparity. In spite of this knowledge and the fact that most people respond to initial chemotherapeutic treatment, lasting treatment modalities used for the cure and maintenance of other BCa subtypes generally fail to significantly increase disease-free survival or diminish the rates of recurrence within the first five years after initial detection of TNBC. Our ultimate goal is to identify novel biomarkers which may be leveraged for initiating prevention strategies in high risk populations, earlier detection, or targeted treatment of this disease. |
