Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to provide prospective evidence that the Magseed Pro® marker /Sentimag® Gen3 system is safe and effective for marking A. suspicious/biopsy-proven positive axillary lymph nodes; and B. soft tissue lesions including cancer and pre-cancerous change in the breast The devices used in this clinical trial are the Magseed Pro® marker and Sentimag® Gen3 system by Endomagnetics Limited.

The Endomag Magseed Pro® Marker System is intended to be placed within the target soft tissue prior to planned surgical removal. The marker, when used in conjunction with the Sentimag® Gen 3 System, can be used as a guide for the surgeon to follow in the excision of tissue. The Sentimag® Gen3 Magnetic Localisation System when used with the Magseed family of markers is indicated to assist in localising soft tissue lesions.

The study design is a multicentre international prospective, open label, study of Magseed Pro® marker and Sentimag® Gen3 system in patients with breast and/or lymph node pathology with:

A. axillary lymph nodes requiring localisation prior to surgical excision (suspicious and/or biopsy proven lymph node or other pathology indicating removal) and/or B. breast lesions requiring localisation

Patients will have the Magseed Pro® marker placed to mark A. surgical excision of suspicious/biopsy-proven axillary lymph node as part of a targeted lymph node biopsy procedure AND/OR B. breast lesions in patients undergoing surgical excision of the targeted breast lesion The Magseed Pro® marker will be localised using the Sentimag® Gen3 system and therafter surgically removed with the target tissue.

This study will enrol 224 patients; 112 with Magseed Pro® marker placed to mark breast lesions and 112 with Magseed Pro® marker placed to mark nodes.

The expected duration of enrolment is approximately 9 months across all sites with each individual subject's participation lasting approximately 1-38 weeks after enrolment.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: axillary lymph nodes requiring localisation prior to surgical excision

The Magseed Pro® marker is intended to be placed percutaneously in suspicious/biopsy proven positive axillary lymph nodes under imaging guidance to mark tissue intended for selective surgical removal.

The Magseed Pro® marker is localised using the Sentimag® Gen3 system handheld probes and surgically removed within/from the target tissue.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The primary endpoints are the retrieval rates of the Magseed Pro® marker with the target lesion within the initial excised specimen for A.) axillary lymph nodes B.) breast lesions A.) axillary lymph nodes. B.) breast lesions
Time Frame: time of surgery
This is defined as the number of patients with successful Magseed Pro® marker placement as demonstrated on imaging, in whom the Magseed Pro® marker and the associated lymph node and/ or lesion is retrieved, divided by the total number of subjects.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Tissue response (unexpected and expected)
Time Frame: time of surgery

EXPECTED Early (up to 2 days) - acute inflammation in the form of neutrophils with lymphocytes and some associated haemorrhage.

Late (>2 days) - active chronic inflammation in the form of neutrophils, lymphocytes, macrophages together with a fibroblastic response. Likely a foreign body reaction with increased numbers of histiocytes and some multinucleated giant cells. Possible granuloma formation (foreign body type). Scattered eosinophils. Later scarring (after 1-2 weeks) with fibrosis. Possible fat necrosis.

UNEXPECTED Early and Late -

• Very florid fibroblastic response with granulation tissue formation that mimics malignancy (nodular fasciitis-like), which may need immunohistochemical tests to differentiate between reactive chan
