About this study

Official title: Pilot Trial of PET Imaging With Cu-64 Labeled Trastuzumab in HER2+ Metastatic Breast Cancer

The purpose of this study is to learn more about how a new study agent works inside the body. The study agent is a protein called 64Cu-trastuzumab. This is a radioactive tracer that was developed at MSKCC to target HER2 protein on cancer cells. A radioactive tracer is a small amount of radioactive dye that follows something else that is not radioactive In this study the study agent, 64Cu-trastuzumab, is the tracer and what's being followed is trastuzumab (Herceptin™). By giving you this tracer after you have treatment with trastuzumab (Herceptin™), we will be able to use PET scans to show us which parts of your body and tumor sites the Herceptin goes to. This will help us to understand better how Herceptin works in the body to fight cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PET Imaging With Cu-64 Labeled TrastuzumabRadiation

    The first 8 patients enrolled will undergo two complete PET studies, up to 3-6 weeks apart, to assess for reproducibility of measures of tracer uptake into individual organs and known sites of metastatic disease.

  • PET Imaging With Cu-64 Labeled TrastuzumabRadiation

    The remaining 20 patients will undergo one PET study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. test safety & feas of (PET) imaging w radiolabeled 64Cu-trastuzumab to determine dosimetry & biodistribution of trastuzumab, using a radiotracer dilution technique w copper-64 labeled trastuzumab

    Measured: conclusion of study

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. to determine reproducibility of the measurement of the Standardized Uptake Value (SUV) in normal organs and tumors in a sub-cohort of 8 patients who will undergo two injections of the tracer.

    Measured: conclusion of study

  2. to determine the pharmacokinetic profile of the 64Cu-trastuzumab radiotracer.

    Measured: conclusion of study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PET Imaging With Cu-64 Labeled Trastuzumab in people with Breast Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

test safety & feas of (PET) imaging w radiolabeled 64Cu-trastuzumab to determine dosimetry & biodistribution of trastuzumab, using a radiotracer dilution technique w copper-64 labeled trastuzumab (time frame: conclusion of study). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Dec 2015.
