About this study

Official title: The Prognostic Value of FDG PET/CT and Diffusion-weighed Imaging on Detection of Primary Tumor and Axillary Metastasis for Breast Cancer: SUVMax Against to ADC

The purpose of this study is to determine findings of positron emission tomography and diffusion weighted magnetic resonance in primary lesion and axillary metastasis of breast cancer and compare of two imaging modality in these patients.

Read the detailed description

We aimed that to correlate both primary lesion 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) with clinicopathological prognostic factors and compare the prognostic value of these indexes in breast cancer in this study. The evaluated and compared parameters are SUVmax and ADC according to age, tumour size, lymph node metastasis, receptor status, histologic grade, modified Nottingham prognostic index.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01942759
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Histologic gradeAccording to the modified criteria of Bloom and Richardson grading system: grade 1, 2 and 3
Axillary metastasisGroup A: axillary lymph node metastasis Group B: no axillary lymphatic metastasis
Modified Nottingham prognostic indexNPI = pathological tumour size (cm) × 0.2 + lymph node stage (1, 2 or 3) + histological grade (1, 2 or 3) The cut-off points of the index were 3.4 and 5.4 to divide patients into the good (≤3.4), moderate (3.41-5.4) and poor (>5.4) prognostic groups
Oestrogen receptor statusNegative Positive
Progesterone receptor statusNegative Positive
HER-2 neu statusNegative Positive

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the relationships between both SUVmax and ADC and clinicopathological prognostic factors

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Neoplasms, run by Bagcilar Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 10 Jun 2014. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

To evaluate the relationships between both SUVmax and ADC and clinicopathological prognostic factors (time frame: 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 10 Jun 2014.
