About this study

Official title: Application of 18F-[FDG] PET/CT to Simulation and Planning of Radiotherapy (RT) for Breast Cancer. Definition of Target Volume for 3-D RT and for Partial Breast Irradiation (PBI) by IMRT Technique

The purpose of the study is:

  • to assess the potential benefits of 18F-[FDG] PET/CT and PET/MRI for operable breast cancer in order to define the size and location of the primary tumor, as well as axillary, supraclavicular and internal mammary lymph nodes.
  • to apply the imaging results to the simulation and the radiation treatment planning and partial breast for 3-D radiation treatment and partial breast irradiation with intensity modulated radiation treatment (IMRT).
Read the detailed description

Pre-operative FDG PET/CT, and in option PET/IRM, are intended for women with histologically confirmed operable clinically node-negative breast cancer, in whom breast conserving and post-operative radiotherapy are planned.

What is being measured

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

  1. Drawing of target volumes

    Compare the drawing of target volumes using the PET/CT, PET/IRM information, or without these imaging informations.

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlate the FDG PET/CT PET/IRM with surgical pathology findings

    Compare the pre-operative imaging information with histopathological description of the resected primary tumor, and with the extent of lymph node involvement.

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Neoplasm, run by University Hospital, Geneva at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 4 inclusion and 14 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Dec 2022. 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 Switzerland. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Drawing of target volumes (time frame: Up to 12 weeks after surgery). 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 NCT01432002, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 21 Dec 2022.
