Study Summary

This trial will study how well copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET works in predicting response to ado-trastuzumab emtansine in patients with HER2 positive breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer that has spread to the lung, liver, soft-tissue or bone. Participants must be able to consent, have a performance status of 0-2, a recent biopsy confirming HER2 positivity without subsequent HER2 therapy, normal heart function and at least one large enough metastasis. Pregnant women and those who've had trastuzumab within 6 weeks are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if Copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET scans can predict the effectiveness of ado-trastuzumab emtansine treatment in patients. It involves attaching a radioactive substance to chemotherapy drug trastuzumab and using PET scans to track its movement in the body.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to radioactivity exposure from PET scans such as nausea or allergic reactions, as well as typical chemotherapy-related issues like fatigue, lowered blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk, heart problems and possible organ damage.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Diagnostic (copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Patients undergo whole body fludeoxyglucose F 18 PET/CT. Patients then receive trastuzumab IV over 15 minutes immediately before receiving copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab IV and then undergo PET scans at 24 and 48 hours. Patients then receive ado-trastuzumab emtansine IV every 3 weeks until complete response or disease progression at the discretion of the treating oncologist. Patients undergo restaging by whole body fludeoxyglucose F 18 PET/CT every 6 weeks after initiation of treatment until disease progression.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are there opportunities for participants in this clinical trial at present?

"As indicated on clinicaltrials.gov, the initial posting of this trial was on July 1st 2015 and it has since been updated for the last time on June 29th 2022. Sadly, patient recruitment is not currently taking place; however, 3084 other trials are still enlisting participants at present."

Answered by AI

What circumstances generally warrant a Diagnostic (copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET) scan?

"Diagnostic (copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET) is typically employed for the treatment of breast cancer. Yet, it can also be utilized in cases where a high risk of recurrence exists, as first line treatment or when operative surgery is needed."

Answered by AI

How many individuals are included in this experiment?

"This particular trial has ceased recruitment. It was first posted on July 1st 2015 and most recently updated June 29th 2022. For those looking to join other studies, 2876 clinical trials are actively seeking participants with HER2-positive breast cancer and 208 for Diagnostic (copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET)."

Answered by AI

Has there been any precedent set for Diagnostic (copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET) regarding its use in clinical trials?

"Currently, 208 trials are examining Diagnostic (copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET) with 53 in the final phase of testing. Atlanta, Georgia is home to several studies while 16589 other locations have a research presence for this diagnostic process."
