What is being measured

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

  1. Log Ratio of Post-baseline to Baseline Ki-67 Index in Mammary Epithelial Cells

    Ki-67 is a marker for cell proliferation. Participants underwent percutaneous core needle breast biopsies on Day 1 (Baseline, prior to treatment) and Day 28. Levels of Ki67 were measured using immunohistochemical staining and digital imaging. The proliferation index was calculated as the percentage of Ki-67 positive terminal ductal lobular unit (TDLU) and duct epithelial cells. The higher the percentage, the higher the rate of epithelial cell proliferation.

    Measured: Baseline and Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Denosumab and Percutaneous core needle breast biopsy in people with Healthy Volunteer, Female, Breast, run by Amgen at 3 sites 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 24 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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.

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 24 Sep 2015). 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?

Log Ratio of Post-baseline to Baseline Ki-67 Index in Mammary Epithelial Cells (time frame: Baseline and Day 28). 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 24 Sep 2015.
