Contrast-Enhanced Cone Beam Breast CT for Diagnostic Breast Imaging

March 14, 2023 updated by: Koning Corporation
Up to one hundred (100) female patients will be enrolled and consented to participate in the study. These women will be enrolled from screening assigned BIRADS 0, patient complaint, or referral for second opinion. The enrolled patient will accept CE-CBBCT scans within 4 weeks of her diagnostic mammography and before breast biopsy if biopsy is needed. The final diagnostic workup outcome of these enrolled patients needs to include at least 30 confirmed cancers cases.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

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

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

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

35 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Experimental: Diagnostic Workup
The subjects will first have a pre-contrast CBBCT scan. Iodinated contrast will be injected intravenously, and then another CBBCT scans will be performed to capture the tumor vasculature enhancement.
Radiation: Contrast Enhanced Cone Beam Breast CT Scan
  • Pre-contrast scan
  • Begin contrast injection (and saline chaser)
  • Post-contrast Scan. Start time of post-contrast CE-CBBCT scan is 90-200 seconds after start of injection, depending on method of contrast delivery (bolus vs hand injection)
Drug: Contrast Dye, Iodinated
1.5-2ml/kg body weight (100 ml maximum) of a low osmolar, nonionic, 300-350 mgI/ml iodinated contrast agent, will be injected at a rate of ~2.0 ml/s, for a total injection time of 30-60 seconds (for a 50 kg subject). This will be immediately followed by a saline "chaser" from 20 to 40 ml at ~2 ml/s (20 seconds) to maximize dynamic enhancement.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures
