About this study

Official title: Multiple B-value Diffusion-weighted Imaging in Evaluation of Breast Lesions:Compare Biexponential Model, Stretched Exponential Model, Conventional Monoexponential DWI and Pathological Specimens.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and its definite diagnose is still challenge for radiologist. This study is going to evaluate multi-b value diffusion weighted imaging in discrimination of breast benign and malignant lesions and explore the diagnostic effect of the combination of multi-parameter. At the same time, pathological specimens of patients will be collected. The relationship between magnetic resonance(MR) parameters and pathology biomarkers will be evaluated. Hope multi-b value diffusion weighted imaging can improve diagnosis for breast lesion and provide the basis for clinical treatment. The fundamental of pathology on MR signal change will be further expounded.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and its definite diagnose is still challenge for radiologist. This study is going to evaluate multi-b values diffusion weighted imaging in discrimination of breast benign and malignant lesions and explore the diagnostic effect of the combination of multi-parameters. At the same time, pathological specimens of patients will be collected. The relationship between MR parameters and pathology biomarkers will be evaluated. By pre-contrast and post-contrast multi-b values diffusion weighted imaging series, patient's Apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC),tissue diffusivity (D), pseudo-diffusion coefficient (D*), perfusion fraction (f), distributed diffusion coefficient(DDC) and alpha will be evaluated. Parameters of benign , malignant breast lesions and ipsilateral or contralateral normal breast parenchyma as a control group will be measured. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis is used to test the ability of different parameters in differentiating malignant from begin lesions. After Surgical operation, specimen of lesion will be collected(Not every patient's specimen will be collected. The investigators should be approved by patient themselves). The biomarkers of specimen will be detected by pathological and molecular-biological methods.Then analyze the relation between parameters of the MR imaging and pathological/molecular-biological biomarkers.

What is being measured

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

  1. The values of Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC, mm^2/s), tissue diffusivity (D, mm^2/s), pseudo-diffusion coefficient (D*, mm^ 2/s) measured from the DWI image

    Parameters of multiple b-value and conventional DWI: ADC (mm^2/s), D (mm^2/s), D* (mm^2/s), distributed diffusion coefficient (DDC, mm^2/s).

    Measured: From first week to 92 week

  2. The positive rates of molecular markers from the immunohistochemistry sections

    Immunohistochemistry index (immunopositive rate, calculated with the numbers of positively labeled cells [2 fold increase vs the background] divided by the number of total cells) for estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor(PR), Ki-67 (KI-67), Her 2 and Aquaporins.

    Measured: From first week to 92 week

  3. The density measurement of microvessel density (MVD) and microlymphatic density (MLD)

    MVD: the number of microvessels divided by the observing area; MLD: the number of lymphocytes divided by the observing area.

    Measured: From first week to 92 week

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Value of intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) within inter-observe and intra-observe

    The intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC) of inter-observe and intra-observe.

    Measured: From 92 week to 120 week.

  2. The true-positive and true-negative rates for each parameter

    The true-positive, false-positve,true-negative and false negative rates for each paramter are first calculated. Then the diagonistic sensitivity and specificity of each parameter are decided.

    Measured: From 92 week to 120 week.

  3. The values of R and P for Pearson Correlation analyses between DWI parameters and molecular/morphological markers

    Correlation coefficient of each MR and pathological/molecular-biological biomarkers.

    Measured: From 120 week to 130 week.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Neoplasms and DWI, run by Tang-Du Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 20 Aug 2015. 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 China. 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 Bao Ying Chen, M . D . (18629527901, chenby128@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The values of Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC, mm^2/s), tissue diffusivity (D, mm^2/s), pseudo-diffusion coefficient (D*, mm^ 2/s) measured from the DWI image (time frame: From first week to 92 week). The study lists 3 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 20 Aug 2015.
