Early Detection of Cardiac Toxicity of Trastuzumab (Herceptin ®) in Patients Treated for Breast Carcinoma: Value of Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Phase 2
Terminated
Conditions
Cancer, Breast
LV Dysfunction
Interventions
Other: Cardiac MRI
Registration Number
NCT01436604
Lead Sponsor
Centre Francois Baclesse
Brief Summary

The main objective of this study is to compare the proportions of late enhancement in patients with Left ventricular (LV) dysfunction as Herceptin ® and in a control group consisting of patients who did not have LV dysfunction after 6 months under the same treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportions of late enhancement in patients with LV dysfunction as Herceptin ® and in a control group consisting of patients who did not have LV dysfunction after 6 months under the same treatment.2 years

A cardiac MRI is considered positive if demonstrated a late hyperintense from 15 to 20 minutes after injection of gadolinium chelate, whatever its size, topography subepicardial (intramyocardial) and without vascular systematization.

The primary endpoint is the proportion of delayed enhancement in the LV dysfunction group and the control group.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of patients recovering at 6 months in the absence of late enhancement signal in MRI heart after injection of gadolinium and compare the results of biological assays2 years
