Diagnostic Accuracy and Safety Study of FES PET/CT in Assessment of ER Status of Recurrent or Metastatic Breast Cancer

December 7, 2016 updated by: Dae Hyuk Moon, Asan Medical Center

A Phase III, Open Label, Non-randomized, Single Center Study to Evaluate Diagnostic Accuracy and Safety of Fluorine-18 (18F) Fluoroestradiol PET/CT in the Assessment of ER Status of Recurrent or Metastatic Lesions in Patients With Breast Cancer

The standard diagnostic workup for recurrent or metastatic breast cancer includes biopsy and determination of tumor estrogen status according to National Comprehensive Cancer Network and European Society for Medical Oncology. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is currently the most commonly used method for determining ER status. A investigational imaging tracer named 16-alpha-[18F]-fluoro-17-beta-estradiol, or [18F]fluoroestradiol ([18F]FES) acts similarly in vivo to estradiol and binds to estrogen receptors (ERs). Previous studies in human have shown the efficacy of [18F]FES PET in detecting ER positive breast cancer without any observed toxicity. The investigators hypothesized that [18F]FES PET imaging can noninvasively assess ER status in recurrent or metastatic breast cancer lesion . In this study, a positive and negative percent agreement between IHC and [18F]FES will be determined.

Conditions

Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

19 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • A patient will be enrolled if the patient meets the following inclusion criteria

    1. Patient is ≥19 years of age and male or female of any race/ethnicity
    2. Patients has first recurrence or stage IV disease by American Joint Committee on Cancer tumor-node-metastasis staging system for breast cancer
    3. Patients had histologically confirmed invasive primary breast carcinoma and the documented results of histology are available.
    4. Patients are scheduled to undergo core needle biopsy or surgery for histological confirmation and determination of ER status of recurrent or distant metastatic cancer within 15 days after [18F]FES PET; or patients already underwent core needle biopsy of recurrent or distant metastatic cancer within 30 days before [18F]FES PET and biopsy specimens are available for determination of ER status.
    5. Discontinuation of selective ER blocking agents including tamoxifen or fulvestrant for at least 60 days prior to [18F]FES PET
    6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤2

Exclusion Criteria:

  • A patient will be excluded from this study if the patient does not full fulfill the inclusion criteria, or if any of the following conditions are observed

    1. Patient or patient's legally acceptable representative do not provide written informed consent
    2. The recurrent or metastatic lesion scheduled to undergo biopsy is located in breast, liver, ovary, uterus, or bone
    3. Female patient is pregnant or nursing. Exclusion of the possibility of pregnancy is made by one of the following: 1) woman is physiologically post menopausal (cessation of menses for more than 2 years), 2) woman is surgically sterile (has had a documented bilateral oophorectomy and/or documented hysterectomy, or 3) if the woman is of childbearing potential, a urine pregnancy test performed within 24 hours immediately prior to administration of [18F]FES has to be negative and the women is advised to apply contraceptive measures during her participation in this study
    4. Adjuvant chemotherapy within 3 weeks prior to [18F]FES PET.
    5. Radiation therapy or immuno/biologic therapy is scheduled to be given to patient before the histologic confirmation by biopsy or [18F]FES PET.
    6. Concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled and/or unstable medical disease other than cancer (e.g. congestive heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, severe pulmonary disease, chronic renal or hepatic disease which could compromise participation in the study) in the judgment of the investigator.
    7. Patient is a relative of the investigator, student of the investigator or otherwise dependent
    8. Patient has any other condition or personal circumstances that, in the judgment of the investigator, might interfere with the collection of complete data
    9. Patient has been involved in an investigative, radioactive research procedure within 7 days prior to registration
