NCT06150898 | NOT YET RECRUITING | Early-stage Breast Cancer

Ketorolac and Pregabalin Effects on breaSt Cancer (KePreSt)
Sponsor:

Christmas table Institute

Brief Summary:

Out of all proportion to its short duration, the perioperative period is critical in determining the long-term outcome of cancer. To contribute to a better understanding of the neural and inflammatory mechanisms underlying this issue, we aim to implement a novel intervention based on the preoperative use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with or without an anti-epileptic drug. Our goal is to understand and transform the perioperative window from being a facilitator of metastatic progression to arresting and/or eliminating residual disease using repurposing drugs

Condition or disease

Early-stage Breast Cancer

Estrogen-receptor-positive Breast Cancer

Intervention/treatment

Prospective data and sample collection

Ketorolac 10 Mg Oral Tablet

Pregabalin 75mg

Omeprazole 20mg Capsule

Phase

PHASE2

Detailed Description:

The perioperative period presents a unique window of therapeutic opportunities to counteract minimal residual growth and dormancy escape of cancer cells. The main physiological disturbances induced by the surgery, that enhance the tumoral growth in the perioperative period, are due to the neuronal and inflammatory signaling. We propose a therapeutic modelling of the inflammatory and neurological pathways in a phase II trial using ketorolac and pregabalin, alone or in combination. Ketorolac, a non-selective NSAIDs will target cyclooxygenase (COX)-enzymes, while pregabalin, an anti-epileptic drug will regulates the release of neurotransmitters. Moreover, both drugs have an effect on the postoperative pain and pregabalin has anxiolytic property. Thanks to this study, and through specific blockade, we want to understand how nervous and inflammatory systems remodel the tumour and systemic characteristics. To ensure an integrative analysis of those factors, patient's adiposity as well as other confounding variable will be taken into account.
