Study population: Patients with a previous diagnosis of breast cancer scheduled for sentinel lymph node dissection.

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female;

Who cannot join

  • Subjects diagnosed pre-surgically with large or locally advanced (T3 \& T4) breast cancer;
  • Pregnant subjects, confirmed by interview with either subject or treating physician;
  • Subjects diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer;
  • Subjects diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) when breast conservation is to be done;
  • Subjects with clinically suspicious, palpable axillary lymph nodes;
  • Subjects previously treated for or previously diagnosed with another type of invasive cancer. Subjects with skin cancer (basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma) may be included, except for subjects diagnosed with melanoma; Subjects with non-invasive carcinoma of the Cervix may also be included in this study.

About this study

Official title: Intraoperative Examination of Sentinel Lymph Nodes: Comparison of the OSNA Breast Cancer System to Extensive Frozen Section Histopathology

The study will determine the sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value and positive predictive value of the OSNA Breast Cancer System by comparing its performance to an extensive intraoperative frozen section protocol for Sentinel Lymph Nodes removed during standard Sentinel Lymph Node biopsy procedures from breast cancer subjects.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OSNA Breast Cancer SystemDevice

    For in vitro diagnostic use only.

    The OSNA Breast Cancer System is an automated semi-quantitative, in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of greater than (>) 0.2 mm metastases in nodal tissue removed from sentinel lymph node biopsies of breast cancer patients. Results from the assay can be used to guide the intra-operative or post-operative decision to remove additional lymph nodes and to aid in patient staging. An assay positive + or ++ result indicates the presence of metastasis (> 0.2 mm). An assay positive ++ result predicts the presence of macrometastasis (> 2 mm).

What is being measured

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

  1. Prospectively assess the concordance and performance of the OSNA Breast Cancer System with an extensive intraoperative frozen section protocol for SLNs removed using standard SLN biopsy procedures from breast cancer subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Neoplasms and Breast Diseases, run by Sysmex America, Inc. at 1 site in Italy.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2011. 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 Italy. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Prospectively assess the concordance and performance of the OSNA Breast Cancer System with an extensive intraoperative frozen section protocol for SLNs removed using standard SLN biopsy procedures from breast cancer subjects. (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2011.
