About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study for the Identification of Targets for Clinical Improvement in Breast Conserving Therapy

The proposed study is a single-center, prospective, pilot, observation study to tabulate and measure the changes that occur during treatment and healing for breast conserving therapy (BCT) in women with non-metastatic breast cancer for comparison to the multiscale model of breast lumpectomy and healing in order to identify targets for improving BCT. The study will be comprised of 12 de novo breast cancer patients with non-metastatic breast cancer undergoing BCT. Subjects will be enrolled in the study during the 3 weeks prior to receiving their BCT surgery and will be followed for six months after the BCT surgery. A total of 6 visits (not including the surgery) are planned.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, prospective, pilot observation study. Eligible subjects who enroll in this study will begin at the time of informed consent, which will occur during the pre-operative, surgical evaluation time. Once consented, a 3-dimensional 180° camera surface image will be taken and a pain-scale score will be completed. Data from the medical history will be recorded. As standard of care, the surgery will be scheduled and performed. Following surgery, a series of 5 standard of care visits will occur over the subsequent 6 months, that will include research measures of local ultrasound x5 and 3-dimensional surface imaging x3. The pain scale score will be administered pre and post ultrasound on the 5 post-operative visits. A judging of the cosmesis will take place at weeks 10 and 26 by independent surgeons. The participant's role in the study will be completed after the week 24 visit.

What participants receive

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

  • Standard of CareOther

    Standard of care for early stage breast cancer is breast conserving therapy at this center.

    Other concomitant standard of care treatment • Radiation therapy to the whole breast

    • 45-50 Gy delivered over 25-28 fractions with a boost to the tumor bed of 10-16 Gy delivered over 5-8 fractions

What is being measured

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

  1. Study Endpoint

    The proportion of subjects with ≥60% agreement between the surgical/healing outcome of the lumpectomy and breast surface contour and the predicted changes from the multi-scale model.

    Measured: Six-month Post-Surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by The Methodist Hospital Research Institute 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 7 inclusion and 5 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 10 Oct 2018. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Linda W. Moore (713-441-6144, lwmoore@houstonmethodist.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Study Endpoint (time frame: Six-month Post-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 NCT02310711, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Oct 2018.
