About this study

Official title: Positron Emission Tomography (PET) With 18F-Fluoroestradiol (FES) as a Predictor of Response in Patients With Breast Cancer Scheduled to be Treated With MK-2206 in Combination With Either an Aromatase Inhibitor or Fulvestrant on NCI Protocol 8762

A significant number of all invasive breast cancers are hormone sensitive and may be candidates for treatment with hormonal therapy.

This project will assess the ability and usefulness of imaging hormone-receptor status in breast cancer with positron emission tomography (PET) and 6α-[18F]fluoro-17β-estradiol (FES), an estrogen analogue in patients who are scheduled to be treated with hormonal therapy given in combination with a selective allosteric inhibitor of AKT protein kinase (MK2206) .

Read the detailed description

Approximately 75% of all invasive breast cancers are hormone sensitive [estrogen-receptor positive (ER+) or progesterone-receptor positive (PR+)] and patients with such cancers are candidates for endocrine therapy. Endocrine therapy is a central component of the treatment of hormone-sensitive breast cancer in the adjuvant and, increasingly, neoadjuvant settings. Knowledge of hormone receptor expression is essential for selection of appropriate therapy. Measurement of hormone-receptor expression [estrogen receptor (ER) or progesterone receptor (PR)] using in vitro assays of the tumor tissue at the time of primary diagnosis is standard of clinical care. However, the presence of these hormone receptors predicts for clinical benefit in only 30-50% of women with advanced disease receiving first-line endocrine therapy and 15-30% receiving second-line therapy (1-3). Thus, the presence of a hormone receptor does not indicate that the receptor is functional and essential to the growth of the cancer cell, nor does it imply that interference with receptor function will result in tumor cell kill. There are several shortcomings of the in vitro assays and neither quantitative nor qualitative receptor assays performed on samples of tumor tissue completely predict the response to antiestrogen therapy in breast cancers. In addition, none of the current clinical tools (serologies, prognostic factors, or radiologic studies) can accurately predict for clinical benefit from endocrine therapy. Accordingly, better methods for predicting clinical response to antiestrogen therapy need to be developed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Diagnostic Imaging ( 6α-[18F]fluoro-17β-estradiol (FES)) in people with Breast Cancer, run by Washington University School of Medicine 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 6 inclusion and 4 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 25 Oct 2021. 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 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?

FES baseline tumor SUV measurement (time frame: Up to 36 months). 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 25 Oct 2021.
