About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Axillary Level I-II Areas Radiotherapy for Early Stage Breast Cancer With Limited Positive Sentinel Lymph Nodes

This study is designed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of axillary radiotherapy for early stage breast cancer with limited positive sentinel lymph nodes.

Read the detailed description

Randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that complete axillary lymph node dissection is not necessary in patients with 1-2 positive sentinel lymph nodes who undergo breast conserving surgery, whole breast irradiation, and systemic therapy. However, whether or not the regional lymph node should be irradiated and if radiation given, whether or not all levels of axillary lymph node and internal mammary and supraclavicular lymph node should be irradiated is unknown. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of axillary level I-II areas radiotherapy for early stage breast cancer with 1-2 positive sentinel lymph nodes and no further axillary lymph node dissection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Fudan University 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 8 inclusion and 11 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 23 Nov 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 Xiaoli Yu, MD.PhD (+86 18017312388, stephanieyxl@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Axillary recurrence (time frame: 5 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 23 Nov 2015.
