About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Breast Cancer focused on measuring Clinical T1-2N0 ER+, Invasive breast cancer, estrogen-positive

Eligibility Criteria

65 Years - undefined (Older Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Female age 65 and older
  • Staging:

    1. Patients enrolled prior to surgery: Diagnosis of clinical T1-2N0, ER+, HER2-negative, invasive breast cancer as determined by treating physician. DCIS or LCIS may be present with invasive cancer.
    2. Patients enrolled after surgery: pT1-2NX, or pT1-2N0, ER+, HER2-negative, invasive breast cancer. DCIS or LCIS may be present with invasive cancer.
  • Plan to undergo lumpectomy within 3 months of study registration, or underwent lumpectomy within 60 days of study registration (without sentinel node biopsy)
  • Patients in whom lymph nodes are palpable and not suspicious who are found to be nodal tumor-free by nodal core needle biopsy are permitted, but those with biopsy-proven nodal metastases are excluded

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with diagnosis of ductal or lobular carcinoma in situ
  • Patients with diagnosis of inflammatory breast cancer
  • Patients who have undergone neoadjuvant chemotherapy for current primary breast cancer (past treatments for other cancers are acceptable)
  • Patients planning to have mastectomy or had a mastectomy of the ipsilateral breast
  • Prior history of ipsilateral (invasive or DCIS) breast cancer
  • Diagnosis of clinical T3 or T4 breast cancer

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Lumpectomy without sentinel node biopsy

Arm Description

Subjects will undergo standard of care lumpectomy. A biopsy of the sentinel node will not be performed. After surgery, subjects will receive standard of care radiation on the affected breast and hormonal therapy.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Regional recurrence
A regional recurrence is defined as any recurrence in the ipsilateral axillary nodes, supraclavicular nodes or internal mammary nodes and will be determined by physical exam and breast imaging

Secondary Outcome Measures

Disease-free survival
Overall survival

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study will examine the outcomes of lumpectomy, surgery to remove a tumor, without sentinel node biopsy (SNB) for women at least 65 years of age with clinically node-negative breast cancer. Clinically node-negative means that during a physical exam your doctor cannot feel or see that any lymph nodes near the breast area are swollen and there is also no imaging evidence, such as from a mammogram, of nodal involvement.
Detailed Description
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether omission of sentinel node biopsy in patients who meet eligibility criteria results in an acceptable regional recurrence rate over a 6-year period. A regional recurrence is defined as any recurrence in the ipsilateral axillary nodes, supraclavicular nodes or internal mammary nodes. Eligible patients will undergo standard of care lumpectomy without sentinel node biopsy followed by radiation and hormonal therapy or have already undergone the procedure prior to enrollment in the study. She may also receive chemotherapy as determined by her treating physician. A physical examination of the affected breast and regional lymph nodes will be conducted every six months for the first two years of follow up and then yearly for the last 3 years of follow up. Imaging of the affected breast will occur every 12 months after surgery per standard of care.

8. Arms, Groups, and Interventions

Arm Title
Lumpectomy without sentinel node biopsy
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
Subjects will undergo standard of care lumpectomy. A biopsy of the sentinel node will not be performed. After surgery, subjects will receive standard of care radiation on the affected breast and hormonal therapy.
Intervention Type
Procedure
Intervention Name(s)
Lumpectomy without sentinel node biopsy
Intervention Description
Biopsy of the sentinel node is considered standard of care treatment for women with localized breast cancer. The procedure will be eliminated at time of lumpectomy.
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Regional recurrence
Description
A regional recurrence is defined as any recurrence in the ipsilateral axillary nodes, supraclavicular nodes or internal mammary nodes and will be determined by physical exam and breast imaging
Time Frame
A regional recurrence during six years of follow-up after lumpectomy.
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Disease-free survival
Time Frame
From date of diagnosis until the date of locoregional or distant recurrence assessed up to 5 years.
Title
Overall survival
Time Frame
From date of diagnosis until the date of death from any cause assessed up to 5 years.
