About this study

Official title: Breast Cancer Screening With Mammography, Ultrasound, Contrast-enhanced MRI, and Diffusion-weighted MRI in Women at High Risk for Breast Cancer

A prospective observational multicenter study to compare the outcome of breast cancer surveillance using mammography, breast US, contrast-enhanced MRI, and diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI) as a screening tool, in the high-risk women for breast cancer.

  • Primary objective: To compare the sensitivity of mammography, breast US, contrast-enhanced MRI, and DWI for the detection of breast cancer
  • Secondary objective:
  1. To compare the specificity of mammography, breast US, contrast-enhanced MRI, and DWI for the detection of breast cancer
  2. To compare the cancer detection rate of mammography, breast US, contrast-enhanced MRI, and DWI
  3. To compare the characteristics of detected cancers
Read the detailed description
  • Mammography, breast US, contrast-enhanced MRI, and DWI will be performed on the same day or within 1 month at baseline and then after 1 year, and images will be interpreted independently according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) by experienced radiologists.
  • Each eligible woman, who provides informed consent for this study, will undergo mammography, breast US, contrast-enhanced MRI, and DWI at a 3T MR scanner.
  • Contrast-enhanced breast MRI will be performed before and after a gadolinium-based contrast agent injection.
  • Before contrast injection, DWI with b-value of 0, 800 and 1200 s/mm2 will be performed and will transfer into the server.
  • A total of 890 high-risk women for breast cancer will be enrolled in this study.
  • The BI-RADS 3 or higher is defined as test-positive. The reference standard will be a biopsy or at least 1 year of follow-up.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity

    Number of positive examinations with a tissue diagnosis of cancer within 1 year / All cancers present in the population examined in the same time period

    Measured: Baseline to up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Specificity

    Number of negative examinations without tissue diagnosis of cancer within 1 year / All examinations without tissue diagnosis of cancer within the same period

    Measured: Baseline to up to 1 year

  2. Cancer detection rate (CDR)

    Number of detected cancers (invasive and in situ cancer) /1000 examinations

    Measured: Baseline to up to 1 year

  3. Biologic characteristics of breast cancer

    histologic type, tumor grade, and molecular subtype of breast cancers

    Measured: Baseline to up to 1 year

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 5 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 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 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?

Contact Woo Kyung Moon, MD PhD (+82220722584, moonwk@snu.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity (time frame: Baseline to up to 1 year). 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 NCT03835897, 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 23 Nov 2020.
