About this study

Official title: Sonographically Assisted Versus Conventionally Breast Surgery in Breast Cancer Patients With an Indication for Breast Conserving Surgery After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy

Being tested
Sonographically assisted breast surgery, Conventional breast surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. R0 resection rate

    proportion of surgical procedures for cancer in which the surgeon is able to completely remove all detectable tumor tissue with negative margins, indicating that no cancer cells remain in the surgical site

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Weight of primary resedate

    weight of the tumor tissue removed during surgery for cancer

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Time for cut and sew

    duration of the surgical procedure from the initial incision to the completion of the closure of the incision site

    Measured: During surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sonographically assisted breast surgery and Conventional breast surgery in people with Breast Cancer Surgery, run by University Hospital Tuebingen at 1 site in Germany.

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 11 inclusion and 2 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 14 Feb 2024. 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 Germany. 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?

R0 resection rate (time frame: 3 years). 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 14 Feb 2024.
