Study Summary

This trial is testing a new system to see if it helps doctors better treat breast cancer patients during surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 18 with confirmed invasive breast cancer or DCIS who are scheduled for a lumpectomy after neoadjuvant therapy. They must be able to follow the study, have signed consent, and not have serious medical issues. Exclusions include pregnancy, uncontrolled health problems like high blood pressure or infections, allergies to certain agents including PEG, recent investigational drugs use, HIV-positive on antiretrovirals, prior ipsilateral breast surgeries less than 2 years ago.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The LUM Imaging System is being tested in this study. It's used during breast conserving surgery to detect any residual cancer that might remain post-operation. The trial involves patients at multiple centers who are randomly assigned to receive this new imaging technology as part of their surgical treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects related to the LUM Imaging System aren't detailed here but may include reactions similar to those from other contrast agents such as allergic reactions or discomfort at the injection site.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Device Intervention: LUM Imaging System used during surgeryExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The LUM Imaging Device will be used to look inside the lumpectomy cavity to see if the dye indicates any areas that may contain residual tumor. If the imaging identifies that there may be cancer cells remaining in the lumpectomy cavity, the surgeon will remove an additional piece of tissue. This process will be continued until a negative reading from the device is obtained or a maximum of 2 shaves of additional tissue has been removed. Patients in this arm will receive the study drug, LUM015
Group II: Standard of Care ArmActive Control1 Intervention
The LUM Imaging Device will not be used to guide additional tissue removal. Patients in this arm will receive the study drug, LUM015.
