About this study

Official title: Pilot Imaging Study With 89Zr-Trastuzumab in HER2-positive Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients : Correlation With FDG-PET/CT and Anatomopathological Results

Evaluation of the diagnostic potential of HER2 imaging using zirconium 89 labelled trastuzumab.

Read the detailed description

This is the first belgian feasibility study of HER2 imaging using a labelled monoclonal antibody, namely trastuzumab labelled with zirconium 89.

The aims of this study are:

I/ Evaluate the diagnostic potential of HER2 imaging using zirconium 89 labelled trastuzumab (based on the Groningen experience), through the analysis of the correlation between the FDG-PET/CT and the HER2 immunoPET.

II/ PET quantification of HER2 receptor by using the images and the blood pharmacokinetic of the tracer.

III/ In the subset of patients for whom biopsies of metastatic sites have not been carried out previously and are of an easy access, tissue will be acquired as part of the validation of the HER2 immunoPET and as an attempt to better understand the molecular heterogeneity of HER2 positive breast cancer at the time of relapse.

IV/Evaluate the concentration of circulating HER2 extracellular domain in the blood and study his possible role as on imaging quality

What is being measured

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

  1. Test the Diagnostic Accuracy of the HER2 Imaging Using the Labelled Monoclonal Antibody Trastuzumab by Correlating the HER2 PET/CT Imaging With the FDG-PET/CT and Molecular Characterization of Tumor Samples With Discordant Image Findings

    A visual 'patient-based' classification capturing the whole disease burden was developed by using a side-by-side display, comparing baseline FDG-PET/CT(showing all FDG-positive mets independent of their HER2-imaging status) \& day4 HER2-PET/CT. Pts were grouped into 4 HER2-PET/CT patterns according to the proportion of FDG avid tumour load showing relevant 89Zr-T uptake. Pattern A: entire tumor load showed pertinent tracer uptake; B: dominant part of tumour load showed tracer uptake; C: minor part of tumor load showed tracer uptake; D: entire tumor load lacked tracer uptake. Patterns A+B='HER2-positive' \& C+D='HER2-negative'. In the 20 pts: 4 pts were classified "A", 5"B", 1"C" \& 10"D". This classification indicates substantial heterogeneity of 89Zr-T uptake within this so called 'HER2-positive' pt population. After dichotomization, 11(55%) pts were considered as HER2-PET/CT negative. Furthermore, HER2-PET/CT revealed intrapatient heterogeneity of tumour uptake(pts classified B or C).

    Measured: 4 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time Activity Curve

    Time activity curve of normal organ and tumor lesions: pharmacokinetic

    Measured: blood sample at 5, 15, 30, 60 minutes, 1 day, 2 days and 4 or 6 days after tracer injection. Images : Day 0, Day 2 and Day 4 or 6

  2. HER2 Extracellular Domain

    evaluate the concentration of circulating HER2 extracellular domain in the blood and study his possible role as on imaging quality

    Measured: within 60 min before tracer injection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Zr89-trastuzumab in people with Breast Neoplasms and Secondary, run by Jules Bordet Institute at 1 site in Belgium.

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 8 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 Apr 2017. 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 Belgium. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Apr 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Test the Diagnostic Accuracy of the HER2 Imaging Using the Labelled Monoclonal Antibody Trastuzumab by Correlating the HER2 PET/CT Imaging With the FDG-PET/CT and Molecular Characterization of Tumor Samples With Discordant Image Findings (time frame: 4 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 Apr 2017.
