Trial summary

In this study, patients whose breast ultrasound showed a space-occupying lesion and needed biopsy to clarify the pathology were selected as the research subjects. This study aims to determine whether Vacuum-assisted biopsy device Elite is superior to the traditional BARD ejection type air core needle in the diagnosis… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Accuracy of Vacuum-assisted Breast Biopsy Elite 10G Versus BARD 14G Core Needle Biopsy of Abnormal Breast Lesions.

In this study, patients whose breast ultrasound showed a space-occupying lesion and needed biopsy to clarify the pathology were selected as the research subjects. This study aims to determine whether Vacuum-assisted biopsy device Elite is superior to the traditional BARD ejection type air core needle in the diagnosis of breast cancer through a prospective randomized study.

Read the detailed description

The main purpose of the study was to analyze the difference in the accuracy of two biopsy devices in the diagnosis of breast cancer puncture. The purpose of the secondary study was to analyze the difference between the underestimation rate, false negative rate, sensitivity, and negative predictive value of the two devices, the consistency of the immunohistochemistry between the puncture pathology and surgical pathology of the two groups of patients, the number and time-consuming of the puncture acquisition specimens, and the two biopsies Differences in the incidence of complications (safety).

If the biopsy device is a vacuum-assisted Elite 10G needle, insert the needle groove into the mass and rotate to cut the biopsy tissue one circle; If the biopsy device is a BARD 14G hollow core needle, insert the needle to the edge of the mass and pull the trigger in different directions to eject the needle to retrieve the material.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy

    The accuracy of the puncture pathology was defined as the proportion of patients in the study population who were consistent with the qualitative diagnosis of the puncture pathology and surgical pathology.When the pathological diagnosis of puncture is "carcinoma in situ of the catheter", if the pathological diagnosis of the catheter is "carcinoma in situ of the catheter with microinfiltration", the puncture is considered accurate;If the surgical pathology confirms "invasive cancer (infiltrating lesion >1mm)", the pathology of the puncture is considered inaccurate (ie, underestimated)

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Concordance of immunohistochemical marker status

    ER,PR, HER2and Ki67from tissues obtained by percutaneous biopsy and follow on surgical procedure.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Sensitivity

    The proportion of patients with abreast cancer diagnosis by percutaneous biopsy among all patients receiving an invasive breast cancer diagnosis by either percutaneous biopsy or by follow on surgical procedure.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Negative Prediction Value

    The proportion of patients whose diagnosis from percutaneous biopsy is benign, among all patients with a benign diagnosis by follow on surgical procedure, ORthe proportion of patients whose diagnosis from percutaneous biopsy is benign, among all patients whose malignant lesions were not diagnosed within less than 1 year of follow-up after initial percutaneous biopsy.

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Underestimation Rate

    The rate at which the surgical procedure following a percutaneous biopsy upgrades or upstages the severity of histopathologic diagnosis. For example, a) if percutaneous biopsy indicated benign lesions, and the subsequent surgical procedureidentifiedprecancerous lesions (e.g., ADH) or malignant lesions (DCIS or invasive adenocarcinoma); or b) if percutaneous biopsy indicated precancerous lesions, and follow up surgical procedureidentified malignant lesions(DCIS or invasive adenocarcinoma); or 3) if percutaneous biopsyindicated carcinoma in situ,and follow up surgical procedure identified infiltrating carcinoma (except microinvasive foci <1mm) identified by follow onsurgical procedure.

    Measured: 3 months

  5. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Rate of immediate bleeding on the day of puncture (bleeding requiring a compression bandage); rate of bleeding that cannot be stopped by a compression bandage within 48 hours after procedure; rate of hematoma on the second day after puncture; rate of skin ecchymosis and puncture point infection (local redness, swelling, heat and pain).

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing VABB Elite 10G and BARD 14G CNB in people with 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 14 Sep 2021. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

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?

Accuracy (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT04612439, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 14 Sep 2021.
