New treatment option for Invasive Breast Cancer
Official title fREEDOM: REsonance for Early Detection Of Breast Cancer Metastases
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06328465
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The aim of this study is to understand whether DWB-MRI (Diffusion Whole Body-Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is useful for early detection of locoregional or distant recurrence and whether early diagnosis influences the prognosis in high-risk populations thanks to the possibility of being able to use a more effective treatment. The primary objective is to evaluate 5-year overall survival (OS) in patients with Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 positive (HER2+) or high-risk Triple Negative (TN) undergoing surveillance with DWB-MRI.
