  Purpose

RATIONALE: Imaging procedures, such as diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI), may help in evaluating how well patients with breast cancer respond to treatment.

PURPOSE: This research trial studies DWI and DCE-MRI in assessing treatment response in patients with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Pathologic complete response (pCR) [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Change in ADC value as measured by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve from each treatment timepoint to baseline [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Changes in ADC value, DCE-MRI tumor volume, and SER [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Effectiveness of the individual measurement's changes in ADC value, DCE-MRI tumor volume, and SER [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Test-retest reproducibility of DW-MRI ADC metric [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 304
Study Start Date: August 2012
Estimated Primary Completion Date: February 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To determine if the change in tumor apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value measured from each treatment timepoint to baseline is predictive of pathologic complete response (pCR).

Secondary

  • To determine if the combined measurement of change in tumor ADC value, change in tumor volume, and change in peak signal-enhancement ratio (SER) is predictive of pCR.
  • To investigate the relative effectiveness of the individual measurements, change in tumor ADC value, change in tumor volume, and change in peak SER for predicting pCR in experimental treatment arms.
  • To assess the test-retest reproducibility of ADC metrics applied to breast tumors.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients undergo diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) at baseline, after week 3 of neoadjuvant paclitaxel regimen, and prior to and after completion of 4 courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Patients then undergo surgery. Patients undergo DWI prior to contrast administration for dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI).

After completion of treatment procedure, patients are followed up for 5 years on the I-SPY 2 TRIAL.
