Impact of Breast Cancer Treatment on Joint Health, Cartilage Composition, and Bone Structure in the Knee and Hand

September 7, 2022 updated by: University of California, San Francisco
This study investigates the impact of breast cancer treatment on joint health, cartilage, composition, and bone structure in the knee and hand in patients with hormone-receptor positive stage I-III breast cancer and healthy patients. The investigators will use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to assess the quality of hand and knee joints. This study may help doctors learn more about hand and knee joint pain that occurs during aromatase inhibitor treatment.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To investigate pathological alterations in cartilage and joints in breast cancer patients on aromatase inhibitor (AI)s with and without pain and in healthy control patients.

OUTLINE:

Patients complete a series of questionnaires over 15 minutes about knee function and pain, as well as physical activity. Patients also undergo an MRI of about 60 minutes.

After completion of study, a subset of patients are followed up at 6 months.

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

No older than 70 years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients with a diagnosis of breast cancer and normal controls.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Written informed consent obtained from participant or participant's legal representative and ability for participant to comply with the requirements of the study

  2. Breast cancer patients with either natural or chemically induced menopause with stage 1-3 hormone receptor-positive breast cancers and on AI for at least one year OR healthy postmenopausal women

    Breast cancer patients on aromatase inhibitors (AI) may fall into one of the three following groups:

    • Patients with knee pain with Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) >= 5, but no or minimal hand/wrist pain
    • Patients with self-reported moderate or severe hand/wrist pain but no or only mild knee pain (WOMAC =< 7)
    • Patients with no or minimal hand/wrist or knee pain (WOMAC =< 7)
  3. Age <= 70 years old
  4. Ability to read and complete quality of life surveys in English (or have a family member or friend available to translate and assist in completing surveys)

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. History of prior traumatic injury at knee joint or severe degenerative joint disease or osteoarthritis defined as having a history of prior joint replacement or moderate to severe knee pain prior to initiation of AI
  2. History of claustrophobia
  3. Presence of a condition or abnormality that in the opinion of the investigator would compromise the safety of the patient or the quality of the data, including prior history of implanted devices with ferromagnetic objects

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean differences in hyaline cartilage biochemical composition
Time Frame: Up to 6 months
Will determine differences in hyaline cartilage biochemical composition (using magnetic resonance imaging) between breast cancer patients under aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment. Linear regression models will be used to assess differences in joint parameters outcomes between healthy controls, AI patients with pain, and AI patients without pain (predictors).
Up to 6 months
Differences in morphological joint abnormalities
Time Frame: Up to 6 months
Will determine differences in morphological joint abnormalities (using semi-quantitative magnetic resonance-based scores) between breast cancer patients under aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment. Linear regression models will be used to assess differences in joint parameters outcomes between healthy controls, AI patients with pain, and AI patients without pain (predictors).
Up to 6 months
