New treatment option for Breast Cancer
Official title Sentinel Lymph Node Localisation With an Ultra-low Dose of Magtrace in Breast Cancer Patients
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06169072
What this study is testing
What is Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide?
Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for breast cancer.
Also referred to as Magtrace.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The overall aim is to demonstrate that the use of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO) as a tracer in an ultra-low dose (0.1 ml) is non-inferior for sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection in patients with breast cancer compared to the dual technique using Tc99m +/- blue dye, and to evaluate MRI breast artefacts and skin staining over time.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
