NCT00572728

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well 3'-deoxy-3'-18F fluorothymidine (18F-FLT) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in predicting response in patients receiving chemotherapy and undergoing surgery for breast cancer that has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes. Diagnostic procedures, such as 18F-FLT PET/CT, may help in learning how well chemotherapy works to kill breast cancer cells before surgery and help doctors plan the best treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • %Change in FLT Uptake Between the Baseline (Pre-therapy) and the Early-therapy Imaging Studies to Predict Pathological Complete Response

    The primary statistical evaluation will be based on the percent change in FLT SUV60 between baseline (pre-therapy, FLT-1) and the early-therapy imaging (5-10 days after chemotherapy, FLT-2) studies

    Baseline (FLT-1) to early therapy (5-10 days after chemotherapy, FLT-2)

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Correlation Between SUVmax and Ki-67 LI at FLT1(Baseline PET)

    Baseline (FLT-1)

  • Correlation Between SUVmax and Ki-67 LI at FLT3 (Post-NAC)

    Post-NAC (FLT3)

  • SUVmax at FLT-1 Comparison Between Residual Cancer Burden (RCB) 0/I and RCB II/III

    Baseline (FLT-1)

  • SUVmax at FLT-2 Comparison Between Residual Cancer Burden (RCB) 0/I and RCB II/III

    early treatment (FLT2)

  • SUVmax at FLT-3 Comparison Between Residual Cancer Burden (RCB) 0/I and RCB II/III

    post-NAC (FLT-3)

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Diagnostic (18F-FLT)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients undergo 18F-FLT PET /CT at baseline (prior to chemotherapy, FLT-1), early therapy (5-10 days after the initiation of the first course of chemotherapy, FLT-2), and post therapy (within 3 weeks prior to surgery, FLT-3). Patients undergo standard surgical resection of residual tumor following completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Procedure: CTDrug: 18F-FLTProcedure: PET

  • Platelets \>= 100,000/ul
  • Total bilirubin within normal institutional limits
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) =\< 2.5 times the institutional upper limit of normal

You may not qualify if:

  • Previous treatment (chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery) to involved breast; including hormone therapy
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
  • Medically unstable
  • Condition requiring anesthesia for PET scanning and/or unable to lie still for 1.5 hours
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to F-18 fluorothymidine
  • Pregnant or nursing
  • Previous malignancy, other than basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix, from which the patient has been disease free for less than 5 years
