DCE-MRI and MBI in Assessing Tumor Response to Chemotherapy in Patients With Triple Negative Breast Cancer

HER2/Neu Negative Clinical Trial

Official title: Multimodality Breast Imaging for the Assessment of Tumor Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Triple Negative Breast Cancer Patients

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This early phase I trial studies how well dynamic contrast enhanced molecular resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and technetium-Tc99m sestamibi molecular breast imaging (MBI) work in assessing tumor response to chemotherapy in patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) who are undergoing chemotherapy. Investigational imaging scans such as MBI and DCE-MRI may help researchers predict which patients may respond to treatment.

Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the predictive value of advanced imaging modalities Tc99m sestamibi (technetium Tc-99m sestamibi) molecular breast imaging (MBI) and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) response in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate and compare the ability all imaging modalities including standard of care digital mammogram (DM) and ultrasound (US) as well as novel modalities DCE-MRI and MBI to assess and predict response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine effect of molecular subtype of TNBC on diagnostic performance of different types of imaging modalities in predicting treatment response.

II. To determine the Utility of Dynamic Tc99m sestamibi MBI and DCE-MRI together with molecular profiling to identify a subgroup of chemoresistant TNBC patients.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo DCE-MRI over 45-60 minutes. Patients receive technetium Tc-99m sestamibi via injection, and after 5 minutes patients undergo MBI scan over 1 hour. Both DCE-MRI and MBI are performed at the time of enrollment, at the end of anthracycline therapy, and at the conclusion of NAC before surgery. All patients also undergo standard of care imaging with DM and US (at the same time points if the treating doctor chooses to do so). ;
