  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population will consist of female military health care beneficiaries over the age of 18 years presenting with the diagnosis of breast cancer who meet inclusion criteria.

Who may be able to join

  • Female military healthcare beneficiaries should be over 18 years of age and capable of providing informed consent indicating awareness of the investigational nature of this trial, in keeping with institutional policy.
  • Written informed consent must be obtained from each patient prior to entering the study.
  • Female military healthcare beneficiaries with early breast cancer scheduled to undergo sentinel lymph node mapping and biopsy at WRAMC

Who cannot join

  • Female military healthcare beneficiaries with chronic pain syndrome (e.g. fibromyalgia) undergoing active narcotic-based treatment.
  • Female military healthcare beneficiaries participating in other clinical trials the requirements of which may preclude complete involvement in this study.

About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Trial of Standard Versus pH-adjusted Radiocolloid for Patients Undergoing Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping and Biopsy for Breast Cancer PASSION - P Trial: Ph Adjusted Sulfur-Colloid, Sentinel Initiative ON Pain Trial

Patients with breast cancer scheduled to undergo sentinel lymph node mapping and biopsy will be randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups:

I: (Standard of Care at WRAMC): Application of L-M-X topical anesthetic cream 4% to the breast within one hour of sub-areaolar injection of 4 ml 99mTc-sulfur colloid (1 mCi in normal saline)

Read more

II. Sub-areolar injection of 4 ml pH-adjusted 99mTc-sulfur colloid (1 mCi in sodium bicarbonate)

III. Sub-areolar injection of 4 ml pH-adjusted 99mTc-sulfur colloid (1 mCi in 1% Lidocaine)

IV. Sub-areolar injection of 4 ml pH-adjusted 99mTc-sulfur colloid (1 mCi in sodium bicarbonate + 1% Lidocaine)

The primary study outcome is pain, which will be evaluated for each study group before, and after radiocolloid injection utilizing a standardized 10-point Likert scale, the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale, and the McGill Pain Questionnaire. Physician appraisal of patient pain (Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale) will be estimated during the radiocolloid injection and compared with that of the patient.

Read the detailed description

Null hypothesis: There is no difference in overall pain intensity between standard and pH adjusted radiocolloid for patients undergoing sentinel lymph node mapping and biopsy for breast cancer.

Objectives and scientific aims:

To compare the intensity of pain (Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale + McGill Pain Questionnaire) associated with WRAMC's current standard and pH-adjusted radiocolloid for patients undergoing sentinel lymph node mapping and biopsy for breast cancer.

To assess objectively physician appraisal of patient pain during the radiocolloid injection and compare physician interpreted pain score with patient reported pain score.

Define the success rate of intra-operative SLN identification for each study group.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 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 15 Jul 2009. 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?

To compare the intensity of pain (Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale + McGill Pain Questionnaire) associated with WRAMC's current standard and pH-adjusted radiocolloid for patients undergoing sentinel lymph node mapping and biopsy for breast cancer. (time frame: June 2009). 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 NCT00940199, 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 15 Jul 2009.
