Trial summary

The primary aim of this study is to continue the investigation of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for breast imaging already underway in the diagnostic setting by providing a compelling body of evidence incorporating non-contrast CBCT in the study protocol. Read more about this study

Study population: The study population will be selected from the patient population at a community based clinic, Elizabeth Wende Breast Care, LLC, which is located in Rochester, NY. Group I will consist of subjects who have had mammograms read as BIRADS® 1 or 2. Group II will be subjects who have had a diagnostic mammogram read as BIRADS® 4 or 5 prior to breast biopsy.

Who may be able to join

  • Group I:
  • Females at least 35 years of age of any ethnicity
  • Had a mammogram, read as BI-RADS® 1 or 2
  • Will undergo study imaging no later than four weeks from date of mammogram.
  • Is able to undergo informed consent.
  • Group II:

About this study

The primary aim of this study is to continue the investigation of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for breast imaging already underway in the diagnostic setting by providing a compelling body of evidence incorporating non-contrast CBCT in the study protocol. The goal is to accumulate a body of evidence to provide data to incorporate CBCT into the diagnostic work-up of breast lesions.

What participants receive

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

  • Computed TomographyDevice

    In Group I, fifty CBCT studies will be performed. The objectives will be to illustrate the capacity of CBCT to image the breast in its entirety as compared with the gold standard mammographic exam.

  • Computed TomographyDevice

    In Group II , at least three hundred and fifty (350) study participants, who require diagnostic evaluation of the breast will undergo a breast CBCT . These subjects may be referred for biopsy as a result of a finding from a mammogram, ultrasound, MRI, or clinical exam.

What is being measured

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

  1. Concordance and discordance of CBCT imaging with diagnostic mammography, other breast-imaging modalities, and histopathology

    The primary measure of this study will include the following aspects.

    • the capacity of CBCT to image the breast in its entirety as compared with the gold standard mammographic exam
    • patient's comfort during the CBCT exam vs the mammographic exam
    • the concordance and discordance of CBCT breast imaging with standard mammography and other breast-imaging studies
    • the concordance and discordance of CBCT breast imaging with histopathology
    • number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety

    Measured: about 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Koning Corporation 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2013. 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?

Concordance and discordance of CBCT imaging with diagnostic mammography, other breast-imaging modalities, and histopathology (time frame: about 3 years). 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 18 Jun 2013.
