About this study

The primary objective of this study is to compare the safety and clinical performance of the Philips MicroDose Tomosynthesis system images and images from FFDM systems.

Read the detailed description

The study will be performed in two phases: Image Accrual and Image Reading.

Approximately 800 women who fulfill all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled in chronological order from up to 3 different US sites with one study investigator for each site. Two cohorts of patients will be enrolled (i.e., Biopsy and Screening Cohorts). Paired sets of a standard 4-view exam will be collected both from Philips Tomosynthesis system (Tomosynthesis and synthetic 2D images) and a FDA-cleared FFDM system. All enrolled cases will be quality controlled for completeness of image and patient information.

The reading portion of the study will include approximately 300 normal cases (including some cases determined to be normal after call back after screening mammography), 65 cancer cases, and 40 biopsy proven benign cases.

The primary objective of the study is to compare the safety and clinical performance of the Philips MicroDose Tomosynthesis system (Tomosynthesis and synthetic 2D) images to conventional 2D mammography images (FFDM).

What participants receive

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

  • Imaging on experimental tomo deviceRadiation

    The system used for imaging in the experimental arm is the Philips MicroDose tomography system. The system used for imaging in the active comparator is a standard FFDM system

Study groups in NCT02615509
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Imaging on experimental tomo deviceOtherWomen will have a bilateral two-view mammogram (a total of four images) with the Philips MicroDose Tomosynthesis system and a bilateral two-view mammogram (a total of four images) with an FFDM system. The order of this will be randomised. After collecting the cases together with ground truth a readers study will be performed.

What is being measured

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

  1. To Compare the Clinical Performance of the Philips MicroDose Tomosynthesis System Images to Conventional 2D Mammography Images. Clinical Performance Will be Based on the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristics Curve.

    Due to study termination the conventional images where not taken and it was not possible to calculate the Area under the Receiver Operating Characteristics Curve.

    Instead we are reporting the biopsy results from the Philips MicroDose Tomosynthesis system.

    The time frame from examination to biopsy is documented as an estimate based on the relative urgency to detect potential tumors.

    Measured: Up to approximately 4 weeks.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Compare Average Glandular Dose Between FDDM and Philips Tomosynthesis System

    Measured: Nine months image accrual

  2. Compare Non-cancer Recall Rates Between FDDM and Philips Tomosynthesis System.

    Measured: Nine months image accrual

  3. Compare Sensitivity Between FDDM and Philips Tomosynthesis System, Sensitivity Will be Estimated for Each Reader as the Proportion of Cancer Cases With Per-case BI-RADS Category 4 or Higher.

    Measured: One year follow up will be performed on negative patients

  4. Compare Specificity Between FDDM and Philips Tomosynthesis System. Specificity Will be Estimated by Reader as the Proportion of Non-cancer Cases With Per-case BI-RADS Category Less Than 4.

    Measured: One year follow up will be performed on negative patients

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Imaging on experimental tomo device in people with Breast Cancer, run by Philips Digital Mammography Sweden AB 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 6 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2020. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 May 2020). 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?

To Compare the Clinical Performance of the Philips MicroDose Tomosynthesis System Images to Conventional 2D Mammography Images. Clinical Performance Will be Based on the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristics Curve. (time frame: Up to approximately 4 weeks.). 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 8 May 2020.
