<span class="highlight">Imaging</span> and Tumor Mark Tests to Monitor Metastatic HR Positive, HER2 Negative Breast Cancer

Randomized Non-Inferiority Trial Comparing Overall Survival of Patients Monitored With Serum Tumor Marker Directed Disease Monitoring (STMDDM) Versus Usual Care in Patients With Metastatic Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer (SWOG-S1703)

Purpose: To study if blood tests that look for tumor markers are as good as or better than <span class="highlight">imaging</span> with PET and/or CT scans (the current standard of care) to determine if a tumor is growing.

Who is this for?: People with metastatic (stage IV) hormone positive (ER+ and/or PR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer who are planning to have first line treatment for metastatic disease or have started treatment within the past month, and have at least one elevated tumor marker.

Purpose: To study if using MRIs to screen for brain metastases (breast cancer that has spread to the brain) is safe and finds brain metastases earlier than the standard of care (no screening).

Who is this for?: People with advanced (some stage III) or metastatic (stage IV) breast cancer who will be starting their first or second chemotherapy for advanced disease. View full eligibility criteria
