Trial summary

The primary goal of this study is to determine if preoperative breast MRI findings resulted in more extensive surgery, i.e., mastectomy than breast conserving surgery, i.e., lumpectomy in early stage breast cancers at Summa Akron City Hospital. Early stage breast cancer is defined as breast tumor size less than 5 cm. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Breast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Impact on Mastectomy Rate at Summa Akron City Hospital

The primary goal of this study is to determine if preoperative breast MRI findings resulted in more extensive surgery, i.e., mastectomy than breast conserving surgery, i.e., lumpectomy in early stage breast cancers at Summa Akron City Hospital. Early stage breast cancer is defined as breast tumor size less than 5 cm.

The objectives are to:

  • Review early stage breast cancer patient cases treated at Summa Akron City Hospital between 2006 and 2009 to evaluate clinical and pathological staging
  • Determine the results of preoperative breast MRI and the impact on type of surgery performed
  • Evaluate the decision to have mastectomy rather than lumpectomy, i.e., physician or patient decision and if this decision was based on breast MRI findings
Read the detailed description

Early stage breast cancer cases between 2006 and 2009 will be identified by the Summa Akron City Hospital cancer registry. The cases will be reviewed and abstracted. The abstracted data will include results of physical breast examinations, mammograms, sonograms, breast MRI reports, biopsy procedure notes and pathology reports to illustrate the clinical stage. Definitive surgical pathology reports will be included in the abstracted data to demonstrate the final pathologic stage of the breast cancer.

A database will be developed to capture the abstracted data. Outcomes will be determined based on final pathology reports.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary goal of this study is to determine if preoperative breast MRI findings resulted in more extensive surgery than breast conserving surgery in early stage breast cancers at Summa Akron City Hospital.

    Review early stage breast cancer patient cases treated at Summa Akron City Hospital between 2006 and 2009 to evaluate clinical and pathological staging

    Determine the results of preoperative breast MRI and the impact on type of surgery performed

    Correlate the breast MRI findings with the final pathology results to determine if the breast MRI clinically upstaged the cancer.

    Measured: from 2006-2009

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlate the breast MRI findings with the final pathology results to determine if the breast MRI clinically upstaged the cancer

    Measured: 2006-2009

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Early Stage Breast Cancer, run by Summa Health System at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Not enough data collected to work with). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary goal of this study is to determine if preoperative breast MRI findings resulted in more extensive surgery than breast conserving surgery in early stage breast cancers at Summa Akron City Hospital. (time frame: from 2006-2009). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01166581, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
