RATIONALE: Gathering information about genetic changes in patients with lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast may help doctors learn more about the disease and find better methods of treatment.
PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the genetics of women with lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast.

Official Title: | GLACIER: A Study to Investigate the Genetics of LobulAr Carcinoma In Situ in EuRope |
Estimated Enrollment: | 2000 |
Study Start Date: | June 2007 |
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
Secondary
OUTLINE: Patients and control participants undergo blood collection. DNA is extracted from blood samples and used to genotype at selected polymorphisms, compare allele frequencies (used to associate alleles with disease) using a genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) screen. Archival tumor samples (if available) from patients are used for DNA-, RNA-, or protein-based analyses.
All participants complete a questionnaire about family history, a brief medical history, and provide epidemiological data to a genetic counselor. Participants identified to be at risk for known hereditary predisposition to cancer will be referred to a clinical genetics service. Individual results of this study are not disclosed to participants.
Peer Reviewed and Funded or Endorsed by Cancer Research UK.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 2,000 participants (1,000 patients and 1,000 matched controls) will be accrued for this study.
