Overview
Liquid biopsy is a noninvasive method for detecting and quantifying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Thanks to ScreenCell technology, this study aims to evaluate the evolution of the number of CTCs during breast cancer follow-up. The identification and characterization of CTCs would make it possible to obtain information on the stage and molecular characteristics of cancer during follow-up
Interventions
- Device The DM/DIV ScreenCell is the experimental product studied during this research
The product is not used directly on the subject, but on a blood sample taken from the participant.
Primary outcome measures
- Evolution of the kinetics of CTC during treatment [Time frame: From enrollement to the end of follow up at 9 months]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Molecular characterisation of CTC [Time frame: From enrollement to the end of follow up at 9 months]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria

For participants with non-metastatic invasive breast cancer:
\- Patient observed with non-metastatic infiltrative breast cancer who had not received any treatment at the time of inclusion (naïve to any treatment)
For healthy volunteers:
- Participant free of any cancer at the time of inclusion, confirmed using a mammogram whose results must be satisfactory, done at the latest two years before inclusion
