NCT04580251

Brief Summary

A multicentre prospective comparative study, comparing the use of various markers (magnetic marker Magseed, iodine seed 125I, carbon suspension) for marking a pathological lymph node in patients with breast carcinoma prior to neoadjuvant therapy and subsequent surgical treatment consisting of targeted axillary dissection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Depth of marker implantation

    The depth of marker implantation will be assessed and measured in millimetres

    During surgery/intervention

  • Marker migration

    Marker migration will be assessed and measured in millimetres

    During surgery/intervention

  • Success-rate of resection of the marked lymph node

    Assessment, whether the lymph node was removed (yes/no) using the respective marker, expressed in percent of successful removal for the respective marker.

    1 month

  • Time from localizing the pathological lymph node using the marker to surgery

    The time from localizing the pathological lymph node using the marker to surgery will be analysed and measured in days

    1 month

Study Arms (3)

Magnetic marker Magseed

Patients in whom the magnetic marker Magseed is used will be enrolled in this study arm and will undergo targeted axillary dissection.

Procedure: Targeted axillary dissection

Iodine seed 125I marker

Patients in whom the iodine seed 125I marker is used will be enrolled in this study arm and will undergo targeted axillary dissection.

Procedure: Targeted axillary dissection

Carbon suspension

Patients in whom the carbon suspension marker is used will be enrolled in this study arm and will undergo targeted axillary dissection.

Procedure: Targeted axillary dissection

Interventions

The surgical treatment procedure of targeted axillary dissection performed in patients in whom the pathological lymph nodes have been marked using the examined and compared markers (magnetic marker Magseed, iodine seed 125I, carbon suspension)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale(Gender-based eligibility)
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with breast cancer confirmed with a biopsy, indicated for neoadjuvant chemotherapy and axillary dissection, in whom pathological lymph nodes have been marked using one of the three examined and compared markers.

You may qualify if:

  • diagnosis of breast cancer, confirmed with a biopsy
  • indication of neoadjuvant therapy
  • biopsy of pathologically enlarged axillary lymph node and marking of the lymph node using one of the markers before neoadjuvant chemotherapy
  • surgical treatment after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (targeted axillary dissection)

You may not qualify if:

  • refusal to participate in the study
  • another treatment protocol, which does not include targeted axillary dissection
