Fluoroestradiol PET Imaging in Predicting Response to Hormone Therapy of Breast Cancer

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Metastatic Breast Cancer
Interventions
Drug: Fluoroestradiol (18F)
Registration Number
NCT01627704
Lead Sponsor
Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
Brief Summary

Compare the response rate after 6 months of hormone treatment (or a major change in hormone treatment) in metastatic breast cancer, according to the uptake of FES in metastatic lesions taking-up FDG on PET/CT at baseline. Hypothesis: best response rate will be observed in patients with all metastases taking up FES prior to treatment.

Detailed Description

Main objective: Compare the response rate after 6 months of hormone treatment (or a major change in hormone treatment) in metastatic breast cancer, according to the uptake of FES in metastatic lesions taking-up FDG on PET/CT at baseline.

Secondary objectives:

* evaluate diagnostic performance of FES PET/CT

* determine whether FES PET/CT is able to detect metastases that are not visible on FDG PET/CT. This point may constitute a direct benefit for the patient

* precise the nature of discordant FES/FDG foci

* validate and improve the interpretation criteria for FES PET/CT

* confirm the perfect tolerance
