  • HIV-positive individuals on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with LUM015.

  • Subjects undergoing a second lumpectomy procedure because of positive margins in a previous surgery prior to entering this study.
  • Subjects with prior ipsilateral breast cancer surgeries, mastectomies, breast reconstructions or implants.
  • Subjects who have undergone a surgical biopsy for any reason in the ipsilateral breast performed less than 2 years prior to enrollment of this study.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

Device Intervention: LUM Imaging System used during surgery

Standard of Care Arm

Arm Description

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

The LUM Imaging Device will not be used to guide additional tissue removal. Patients in this arm will receive the study drug, LUM015.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Development and validation of tumor detection algorithms in breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy
Refining of the previously validated tumor detection algorithm in breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy will be conducted in the first cohort and the validation of this algorithm will use data from the second cohort.
Number of patients with reported adverse events
Reported adverse events will be assessed and aggregated according to event type, relation to device or drug, and severity.
Reduction in residual tumor
Evaluate reduction in residual tumor left after Lumicell assisted lumpectomy compared with SoC removal of main lumpectomy specimen in patients who have received and not received neo-adjuvant therapy
Report on patient reported outcomes and patient preference information
Collect and summarize patient reported information on outcomes and preference

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, clinical trial evaluating patients undergoing breast conserving surgery using the LUM Imaging System.
Detailed Description
Detailed Description: All subjects will be injected with LUM015. The injection of the study drug will occur 2-6 hours prior to surgery at a dose of 1.0 mg/kg. For all subjects, surgeons will perform main specimen resection per standard of care. For subjects randomized to the intervention arm, the surgeon will use the Lum System to scan and image all orientations within the cavity and The LUM Imaging System will guide shave removal. Then, for all subjects (control and intervention arm), comprehensive shaved margins are removed. In this study, the initial cohort is a "training set" with 10 patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy to refine the tumor detection algorithm, if needed. After completion of enrollment of the initial 10 subjects for algorithm training, the Investigators will then enroll a cohort of patients who received neoadjuvant therapy to further evaluate the performance of the LUM Imaging System in this important subset of breast cancer patients. Concurrently to the enrollment of this cohort, surgeons will also enroll a cohort of patients who did not receive neoadjuvant therapy prior to surgery. Patients will be randomized 3:1 to a LUM-assisted lumpectomy versus a standard lumpectomy. In both arms, shaved margins will be taken from the entire lumpectomy cavity to compare the extent of residual tumor after standard and LUM-assisted lumpectomies to evaluate the negative predictive value of the LUM Imaging System following neoadjuvant therapy. Only the group of patients randomized to the device (intervention) arm will have the LUM Imaging System guide the removal of tissue prior to the removal of final comprehensive shaves of the entire cavity. Study treatment ends when the surgery is completed. Patients are followed for adverse events until their standard of care follow-up visit or after any secondary surgery, whichever is longer.
