Trial summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects of positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in evaluating response to chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer.

About this study

Official title: Development of an In Vivo Cell Proliferation Marker for PET Assessment of Chemotherapeutic Response in Cancer

This phase I trial studies the side effects of positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in evaluating response to chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer. Comparing results of diagnostic procedures done before, during, and after chemotherapy may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Study fludeoxyglucose [18F] 2'-fluoro-5-methyl-1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyluracil-clevudine (FMAU) (fluorine F 18-clevudine ) in 10 patients with known breast cancer to obtain data on safety, circulating metabolite, tumor imaging feasibility, and radiation dosimetry. II. Assess the potential utility of FMAU-PET in the imaging evaluation of chemotherapeutic response in 15 patients with breast cancer. OUTLINE: Patients receive fluorine F18-clevudine intravenously (IV) over 1 minute and then undergo PET/CT scan at baseline. Patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive (HER2+) breast cancer also undergo fluorine F 18-clevudine PET/CT scan 2-3 weeks after the first course of treatment and after completion of treatment. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 24 hours.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of FMAU-PET score vs. change of Ki-67 from the baseline to post-chemotherapy

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Incidence of adverse events

    Measured: Up to 24 hours after completion of study treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing laboratory biomarker analysis, pharmacological study and questionnaire administration in people with HER2-positive Breast Cancer and Recurrent Breast Cancer, run by University of Southern California 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 5 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2023. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Insufficient accrual). 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?

Change of FMAU-PET score vs. change of Ki-67 from the baseline to post-chemotherapy (time frame: Up to 1 year). 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 14 Aug 2023.
