About this study

Official title: 3D Breast Ultrasound In Predicting Response to Breast Cancer Therapies

The purpose of this study is to determine how well changes can be determined in malignant masses from ultrasound scans.

Read the detailed description

To evaluate the proportions of correct diagnosis of response to breast Cancer therapies for localized breast cancer by ultrasound. To develop a model based on patient characteristics, physical exam, and radiologic studies which will predict the possibility that a patient has had a complete pathological response to chemotherapy neoadjuvant therapy.

Conditions
Breast Cancers
Being tested
Ultrasound Scan, Mammography and Ultrasound
Medical subject headings
Breast Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • Ultrasound ScanProcedure or surgery

    10 female volunteers with normal breast who will be studied to refine imaging techniques and for comparison with patients. To the degree possible, the volunteer group will be age-matched to patients with symptoms, initially 30 to 70 years of age.

  • Mammography and UltrasoundProcedure or surgery

    To determine how well from ultrasound scans, changes in malignant masses can be measured, and to whether the use of a dye visible by ultrasound will be useful in evaluating different therapies for breast cancer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Volume change on spatially registered (aligned) images tracks path. response better than volume change on unregistered images.

    Self explanatory.

    Measured: 2002-2014

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Spatially register pre, intra and post treatment ultrasound image volumes of treated tumor.

    Visually measure separation between two corresponding points in two ultrasound image volumes after registration to verify registration accuracy.

    Measured: 2002-2014

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ultrasound Scan and Mammography and Ultrasound in people with Breast Cancers, run by University of Michigan 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 5 May 2016. 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.

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?

Volume change on spatially registered (aligned) images tracks path. response better than volume change on unregistered images. (time frame: 2002-2014). 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 5 May 2016.
