About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Different Imaging Modalities in Regional Nodes Staging in Breast Cancer Patient

The regional lymph node status is considered to be an important prognostic factor regarding the long-term survival of breast cancer (BC) patients (Cetin IA, et al . 2020). The knowledge of whether lymph nodes are tumor-infiltrated or not is essential since nodal involvement has decisive therapeutic consequences such as axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), axillary radiotherapy, and neoadjuvant or adjuvant systemic chemotherapy (Diessner J et al . 2023). To provide individualized therapeutic options and optimized therapy.

Read the detailed description

The following data will be collected from electronic or paper medical data records as:

  1. Age 2 )Sex 3)Family history of breast cancer 4)Menopausal status 5 )Body mass index (BMI) 6) Histological type of BC as reported in pathology 7) The results of the lymph node status. 8)Registered data will be collected from the hospital databases and clinical sheers. 3 9) The gold standard reference in the evaluation of suspicious lymph nodes by nodal biopsy and postoperative pathology. Imaging technique and interpretation The imaging diagnostic for BC (MRI, CT, mammography, and ultrasound) patients are carried out by the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology of the Hospitals in the research and interpreted by radiologists at the time of BC diagnosis. The radiological reports for each patient and each imaging technique will be analyzed about the lymph node status. The nodal status will be reported as benign, indeterminate, and infiltrated as stated by the ACR lexicon. Mammography and US For mammography, we will use full-field digital mammography systems with the option of additional tomosynthesis for further characterization of the primary tumor at NCI with the commercially available The BC patients routinely receive an ultrasound exam including the evaluation of the breast and the axilla with the lymphatic drainage pathways as a part of the follow-up process active lymph nodes. p values lower than 0.05 will be considered significant.

What is being measured

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

  1. evaluate the sensitivity of different Imaging modality pretherapeutic imaging modalities (sonography, mammography, CT and MRI) in pretherapeutic assessment of nodal-status in BC patients .

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. to find out if there is further benefit of using cross-sectional imaging (MRI, CT) for pretherapeutic axillary staging compared to Us and mammogram conventional imaging such as mammography and sonogram.

    Measured: one year

evaluate the sensitivity of different Imaging modality pretherapeutic imaging modalities (sonography, mammography, CT and MRI) in pretherapeutic assessment of nodal-status in BC patients . (time frame: one 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 NCT06185946, which also lists 18 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.
