About this study

Chemotherapy or radiation therapy-induced cardiotoxicity are well-recognized side effects in patients with cancer. The clinical significance of cardiotoxicity is growing with increasing cancer survivor-ship.

Left ventricular (LV) functional assessment is the standard of reference to diagnose chemotherapy- or radiation therapy-induced cardiotoxicity. The investigators will investigate the usefulness of T1 mapping parameters for early detection and prediction of chemotherapy-, radiation therapy-, or other therapy-induced cardiotoxicity in breast cancer patients This study aimed to achieve early detection of chemotherapy- or radiation therapy-induced cardiotoxicity using T1 mapping magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and determine a prognostic imaging factor of chemotherapy- or radiation therapy-induced cardiotoxicity in patients treated for breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

Screening and follow-up cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) protocols for diagnosis of cardiotoxicity will be conducted in patients with breast cancer who have received or are planned to receive treatment for breast cancer. The protocol will include T1 and T2 mapping and cine imaging of the LV myocardium.

Being tested
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

What participants receive

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

  • Cardiac magnetic resonance imagingOther

    The cardiac imaging protocol will include pre-contrast T1, post-contrast T1, and T2 mapping images acquired of the mid ventricle with the short axis plane for the analysis of native T1, T2, and extracellular volume (ECV) values of the myocardium. It will also include cine imaging covering the whole LV myocardium in the short axis plane for a functional analysis of the LV myocardium.

What is being measured

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

  1. Decrease in LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction)

    Decrease in LVEF : more than 10% compared to the baseline LVEF) or LVEF < 50%

    Measured: 1 year after CMR scanning

  2. Decrease in LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction)

    Decrease in LVEF : more than 10% compared to the baseline LVEF) or LVEF < 50%

    Measured: 2 years after CMR scanning

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. MACE (Major adverse cardiac events)

    Measured: 1 year after CMR scanning

  2. MACE (Major adverse cardiac events)

    Measured: 2 years after CMR scanning

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chemotherapy Induced Cardiotoxicity, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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 11 Jan 2019. 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 South Korea. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Decrease in LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) (time frame: 1 year after CMR scanning). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03301389, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 11 Jan 2019.
