Study Evaluating the Utility of 18F-FDG PET in Assessing Early Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Mammary Gland Cancer

Not Applicable
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
FDG PET
Interventions
Device: FDG PET
Registration Number
NCT02386709
Lead Sponsor
Centre Georges Francois Leclerc
Brief Summary

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is frequently proposed to patients with mammary gland cancer. The aim is to reduce tumor volume before surgical therapy. Obtaining a pathologic Complete Response (pCR) is regarded as a good prognostic factor with less risk of recurrence. The rate of pCR is about 20%, although there are important variations according to tumor subtype and the type of treatment. The objective of the new therapeutic strategies is to increase this response rate.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of early evaluation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy response after one cycle of neoadjuvant chemotherapy by positron emission tomography (PET) with (18) F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in patients.
