Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The overall goal of this study is to determine how FDG-PET can be incorporated into the assessment of the axilla in the staging and treatment of women with early stage breast cancer. A multicentre, prospective, diagnostic accuracy study will be conducted evaluating the ability of positronic emission tomography using fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG-PET) to detect the presence or absence of axillary lymph node metastases in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with no clinical evidence of spread of disease beyond the breast.

Arms (0)
[]Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- The primary outcomes are the sensitivity and specificity of FDG-PET in axillary node assessments using axillary node assessment [Sentinel Node Biopsy(SNB) with or without Axillary Node Dissection (AND)] as the reference standard.
Secondary outcomes (3)
- measure
- Patients with positive FDG-PET in non-axillary nodal areas;
- measure
- Patients with positive FDG-PET in other non-nodal areas;
- measure
- Patients with positive FDG-PET in the residual breast tissue.

Inclusion Criteria: * Histologic diagnosis of invasive breast cancer, * Resectable primary cancer. Exclusion Criteria: * The diagnosis of invasive breast cancer was made more than 3 months prior to registration, * Patient and/or surgeon are not willing to proceed with a SNB or AND after the PET scan is completed, * Patient and/or surgeon are not willing to proceed with a level I and II AND if the SNB is positive, if the PET scan shows increased uptake in the ipsilateral axilla, or if the surgeon is still gaining experience in the performance of SNB, * SNB or AND has already been done, * Chemotherapy has been given or will be given prior to PET scan or SNB or AND, * Significant serious concurrent medical problems (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes), * Patient is pregnant or lactating, * Patient is unable to lie supine and with both arms above their heads for PET scan, * Known hypersensitivity to FDG, * Clinical evidence of regional nodal metastases (fixed, matted axillary nodes), * Clinical evidence of distant metastases.
