Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Breast Cancer | Device: Selene | Not Applicable |
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Estimated Enrollment : | 333 participants |
Allocation: | Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Parallel Assignment |
Intervention Model Description: | Multi-center, randomized, double-arm trial |
Masking: | Triple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator) |
Masking Description: | The pathologist at each participating site will be blinded to the study arm to ensure that the pathological assessment is unbiased. Additionally, the subject will be blinded to their randomization until the BREAST-Q questionnaire has been completed. |
Primary Purpose: | Treatment |
Official Title: | A Prospective, Multi-center, Randomized, Double-arm Trial to Determine the Impact of the SELENE System on Positive Margin Rates in Breast Conservation Surgery. |
Actual Study Start Date : | December 1, 2021 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date : | September 2023 |
Estimated Study Completion Date : | September 2023 |

Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Standard of Care
Lumpectomy with usual intraoperative margin assessment
|
|
Experimental: Device
Imaging of all margins with investigational device
|
Device: Selene
SELENE imaging of all margins, with record of each margin assessment and an opportunity to excise tissue from the lumpectomy cavity post-imaging. The new margin will be imaged with SELENE and the surgeon will record the assessment and may take additional tissue (up to a maximum of six total shaves, including up to two shaves in each orientation) or record why no further tissue may be taken. |
- The occurrence of at least one unaddressed positive margin for a subject. [ Time Frame: 12 months ]Within-subject comparison of the occurrence of subjects with at least one positive margin.
- The number of unaddressed positive margins per subject. [ Time Frame: 12 months ]The average number of unaddressed positive margins per subject.
- False Positive Shaves Per Subject [ Time Frame: 12 months ]The number of false-positive shaves per subject with use of SELENE.
- Safety Outcome - Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 12 months ]Assessed by recording all adverse events for the duration of the study and then analyzing by seriousness, severity, and device/SELENE procedure-relatedness.
- Safety Outcome - Patient Reported Outcome [ Time Frame: 12 months ]Pre- and Post-operative satisfaction with breasts using the Satisfaction with Breasts subscale score of the BCT module of the patient-reported outcomes measurement instrument BREAST-Q.
