Trial summary

RATIONALE: Breast-conserving surgery is a less invasive type of surgery for breast cancer and may have fewer side effects and improve recovery. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving radiation therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. Read more about this study

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with multicentric carcinoma (tumors in different quadrants of the breast or tumors separated by at least 4 cm)

  • A maximum of two radiographically detected malignant lesions
  • Clinical Stage I-II breast carcinoma, with lesion size =< 5 cm for the dominant mass and the second lesion detected only on MRI, treated with lumpectomies; the MRI detected lesion must be pathologically =< 1 cm
  • Axillary lymph node evaluation, either sentinel lymph node biopsy or axillary dissection as deemed appropriate by the treating surgeon for all patients with invasive cancer; no axillary lymph node sampling is needed for patients with DCIS
  • Negative resection margins with at least a 2 mm margin from invasive and in-situ cancer or a negative re-excision
Show all 10Show fewer
  • A posterior margin =< 2 mm from DCIS is permissible provided fascia was taken
  • Patients are eligible regardless of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, or Her-2/neu amplification

Who cannot join

  • Extensive intraductal component by the Harvard definition (i.e., more than 25% of the invasive tumor is DCIS and DCIS present in adjacent breast tissue)
  • Palpable or radiographically suspicious contralateral axillary, ipsilateral or contralateral supraclavicular, infraclavicular, or internal mammary lymph nodes unless these are histologically confirmed negative
  • Patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy
  • Patients with distant metastatic disease detected by radiographic imaging; specific studies for systemic imaging should be obtained as directed by localized symptoms or per available NCCN guidelines

  • Diffuse calcifications throughout the breast
Show all 13Show fewer
  • Patients with skin involvement or inflammatory breast cancer
  • Patients with Paget's disease of the nipple
  • Patients nonepithelial breast malignancies such as lymphoma or sarcoma

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of the Feasibility and Efficacy of Breast Conserving Surgery in Patients With MRI Detected Multi-Centric Breast Cancer

RATIONALE: Breast-conserving surgery is a less invasive type of surgery for breast cancer and may have fewer side effects and improve recovery. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving radiation therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery.

PURPOSE: This phase II clinical trial is studying how well breast-conserving surgery followed by radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage I or stage II breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence rates as well as tumor bed recurrence rates. Patients will be followed for a period of five years following completion of radiation to determine these rates.

II. To determine the cosmetic outcome resulting from breast conserving surgery and breast radiation.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine if there are patient factors which limit a patient's suitability to receive breast conserving therapy in the setting of multi-centric disease.

II. To determine patient satisfaction of breast conserving therapy as it pertains to their overall treatment experience as measured by a questionnaire.

III. To evaluate wound healing and overall complication rate after radiation as a component of breast conserving therapy.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo breast-conserving surgery consisting of partial mastectomies followed by external beam breast radiation therapy 5 days a week for 5 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 1 month, then every 3 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually for 5 years.

What participants receive

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

  • external beam radiation therapyRadiation

    Also called EBRT

    External beam breast radiation therapy 5 days a week for 5 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

  • questionnaire administrationOther

    Ancillary studies: The patient will complete the Cosmesis /QOL form (Appendix II) and the treating physician will complete the Cosmetic Guidelines (skin assessment) form for baseline data (Appendix I).

  • therapeutic conventional surgeryProcedure or surgery

    Patients will undergo excisional biopsy or needle localization removal of the tumor. Patients with margins < 2 mm undergo re-excision of the biopsy cavity. Surgical clips should be placed at the time of tylectomy to define the excision cavities. Ideally, clips are to be placed marking the superficial, deep, right, left, inferior, and superior dimensions of the tylectomy or re-excision cavities.

What is being measured

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

  1. Ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence rates

    Ipsilateral breast 6 months after diagnosis, bilateral annually for 5 years

    Measured: 5 years after completion of radiation

  2. To determine the cosmetic outcome resulting from breast conserving surgery and breast radiation

    Measured: at 1 year after radiation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To determine if there are patient factors which limit a patient's suitability to receive breast conserving therapy

    Measured: 5 years after completion of radiation treatment

  2. Patient satisfaction with the procedure as determined by a questionnaire

    Measured: at 1 year after radiation

  3. To evaluate wound healing and overall complication rate after radiation

    Measured: at one year after radiation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing external beam radiation therapy, questionnaire administration and therapeutic conventional surgery in people with Ductal Breast Carcinoma in Situ and Estrogen Receptor-negative Breast Cancer, run by Case Comprehensive Cancer Center at 3 sites 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 10 inclusion and 13 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Dec 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence rates (time frame: 5 years after completion of radiation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Dec 2011.
