NCT01620359

Brief Summary

The goal of this prospective, non-randomized, single-arm, multi site, international study is to develop data to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the ExAblate MRgFUS system in the ablation of breast cancer and of MRI. The goal of MRgFUS ablation of breast cancer is to plan and ablate the entire tumor volume in a treatable and device accessible location.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Adverse Events

    To evaluate the incidence and severity of the ExAblate MRgFUS device-related complications to establish the safety profile of the ExAblate ablation of breast cancer visible on contrast-enhanced MRI with 5-10 mm margins around the primary tumor

    5 weeks post treatment

  • Histopathological analyses

    To estimate the effectiveness of ExAblate MRgFUS to ablate 100% of an up-to-2-cm breast cancer visible on an contrast-enhanced MRI with 5-10 mm margins around the primary tumor.

    5 weeks post treatment

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • MR imaging

    5 weeks post treatment

Study Arms (1)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Women age 18 years with invasive breast cancer
  • Patient with contrast-enhanced MR imaging confirming a single focal breast lesion less than 2 cm in diameter
  • Lesion clearly seen on contrast-enhanced MR and in a treatable location
  • Patient who is willing to undergo and be scheduled for sentinel lymph node biopsy
  • Patient scheduled and consented to surgical (lumpectomy or mastectomy) resection of the breast cancer
  • Patient with clinical Stage I disease: T1 M0 N0
  • Patient who signs an informed consent form for screening, SLNB, ablation, and follow-up visits.

You may not qualify if:

  • Invasive lobular carcinoma;
  • DCIS without invasive components on core biopsy;
  • Tamoxifen, Aromatase Inhibitors, and Neoadjuvant chemotherapy within 30 days prior to ExAblate.
  • Prior XRT or ablative therapy to the target breast;
  • Patients currently receiving anticoagulation therapy within the previous 14 days;
  • Lesions difficult to target (\<1 cm from skin, nipple or the rib cage), as visualized on pre-therapy MRI;
  • Microcalcifications as the only sign of breast cancer on imaging studies;
  • Extensive intraductal components (EIC) on core biopsy.
  • Patients with breast implants;
  • Patients with prior surgical clips or other markers at the site of the breast tumor;
  • Patients with severe cerebrovascular disease (multiple CVA or CVA within 6 months);
  • hemolytic anemia (hematocrit \< 30);
  • Pregnant or lactating, post-partum women;
  • Patient overall health status of ASA \>2
  • Patient with active and ongoing infection at any body site;
  • +15 more criteria
