MRI and PET Scans to Predict Resistance to Radiation for People with Metastatic Breast Cancer

Non-invasive, Image-Based, In-Vivo Assessment of Tumor Hypoxia to Guide Hypoxia-Driven Adaptive Radiation Therapy

Purpose: To study whether a new type of MRI scan with PET scans can predict resistance to radiation.

Who is this for?: People with metastatic (stage IV) breast cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastasis) who are planning to receive stereotactic radiation before brain surgery. View full eligibility criteria

What's involved?

<p class="seamTextPara"> You will receive the following: </p> <ul class="seamTextUnorderedList"> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">MRI scan, 2 times</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">PET scan, 2 times</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">Contrast agent, by IV, 2 times</li></ul>

What's being studied?

<ul class="seamTextUnorderedList"> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">Resistance to radiation is a tumor coming back or growing after radiation, as seen on imaging scans.</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">Stereotactic radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) delivers high-dose, precisely-targeted radiation in fewer doses than traditional radiation therapy.</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan produces body pictures created by using magnetic energy rather than x-ray energy.</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">A positron emission tomography (PET) scan is an imaging test that uses a radioactive substance called a tracer that can look for and attach to cancer cells.</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">A contrast agent, also called a tracer, is a radioactive substance that can look for and attach to cancer cells.</li></ul>
