About this study

Official title: Ductal Carcinoma in Situ: Protocol Evaluating the Assessment of Extension of Disease by MRI

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, may help find ductal carcinoma in situ and find out how far the disease has spread.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well MRI works in assessing tumor size in women with ductal carcinoma in situ.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Assess the contribution of MRI in accurately determining tumor size in women with ductal breast carcinoma in situ (DCIS).

Secondary

  • Evaluate the sensitivity of MRI in detecting DCIS.
  • Evaluate the contribution of mammography in accurately determining tumor size.
  • Compare the contribution of MRI vs mammography in assessing tumor extension.
  • Compare the contribution of MRI vs mammography in assessing dense breasts.
  • Evaluate the morphology of DCIS by MRI.
  • Evaluate the curve of dynamic MRI in assessing DCIS.
  • Evaluate the impact of nuclear grade of DCIS by MRI.
  • Evaluate the rate of revision surgery.

OUTLINE: Patients undergo clinical examination, mammography, ultrasound imaging, unilateral breast MRI, and tissue sampling.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing magnetic resonance imaging, radiomammography and ultrasound imaging in people with Breast Cancer, run by Centre Antoine Lacassagne at 1 site in France.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 2026. 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 France. 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?

Correlation of tumor extension by MRI with surgical histology (time frame: up to 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00874458, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
