Trial summary

This clinical trial studies positron emission tomography imaging in using copper Cu 64 TP3805in patients with breast cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and positron emission mammography (PEM) scan, using Cu-64-TP3805 may help doctors find and diagnose breast cancer.

About this study

Official title: PET Imaging of Breast Cancer Using Oncogene Expression

This clinical trial studies positron emission tomography imaging in using copper Cu 64 TP3805in patients with breast cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and positron emission mammography (PEM) scan, using Cu-64-TP3805 may help doctors find and diagnose breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  1. The study's primary goal is to assess the ability of Cu-64-TP3805 (copper Cu 64 TP3805) to detect primary breast lesions as determined by the F-18-FDG (fludeoxyglucose F 18) scan.

II. The study's second goal is to determine the ability of Cu-64-TP3805 to detect primary breast lesions as determined by histology (sensitivity).

III. The study's third goal is to determine the ability of Cu-64-TP3805 to detect metastatic lesions as identified by the F-18-FDG whole-body scan.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-finding 2-stage study.

STAGE I: Patients with a positive biopsy and abnormal (positive) fludeoxyglucose F18-labeled PET whole-body scan undergo a whole-body copper Cu 64 TP3805-labeled PET scan.

STAGE II: Patients with a positive biopsy, but no fludeoxyglucose F18 scan undergo a breast fludeoxyglucose F18-labeled PEM scan followed by a breast copper Cu 64 TP3805-labeled PEM scan.

Being tested
Positron Emission Mammography, Positron Emission Tomography, Fludeoxyglucose F-18, Copper Cu 64 TP3805

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of F-18-FDG Positive Lesions That Are Detected by the Copper Cu 64 TP3805 Analog

    Cu-64 results will be compared with those of F-18-FDG for: The unit of analysis will be the lesion (with potentially multiple lesions available per patient).

    Measured: 4 hours after Cu 64 TP3805 administered

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Ability of Copper Cu 64 TP3805 to Detect Primary Breast Lesions as Determined by Histology (Sensitivity)

    Optimal imaging time is the one (of the three) which will have least background activity in the surrounding tissue and image the maximum number of lesions with clarity. 95% confidence intervals will be used. To account for the multiplicity of lesions per patient, the GEE approach will be used, with the robust variance. Any adverse events will be summarized descriptively.

    Measured: 4 hours after Cu 64 TP3805 administered

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Positron Emission Mammography, Positron Emission Tomography and Fludeoxyglucose F-18 in people with Breast Carcinoma, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Thomas Jefferson University.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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 4 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 9 Jan 2018). 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?

Number of F-18-FDG Positive Lesions That Are Detected by the Copper Cu 64 TP3805 Analog (time frame: 4 hours after Cu 64 TP3805 administered). 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 4 May 2025.
