NCT04750473
This phase I trial studies how well fluciclovine positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) and PSMA PET/CT work in helping doctors understand and classify invasive lobular breast cancer in patients with invasive lobular breast cancer that is suspicious for or has spread to other places in the body (metastasized). Fluciclovine and PSMA are radiotracers used in PET/CT imaging scans that emit radiation. The PET/CT scan than picks up the radiation being released to create a picture from within the body. Information learned from this study may help researchers learn how to better identify metastatic disease in invasive lobular breast cancer patients which will impact appropriate staging.

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women worldwide. Advances in treatment have increased survival rates, so patients must live with the complications resulting from the cancer and its treatment. One of the most common side effects is lymphedema, which can occur as a secondary effect of surgical or radiotherapy treatment. Lymphatic edema is a condition characterized by an excess of lymphatic fluid, rich in proteins, in the subcutaneous tissue, causing pain, a feeling of heaviness in the affected limb, restricted range of motion, and, in some cases, progressing to the formation of ulcers and recurrent infections; inevitably affecting the quality of life of the women who suffer from it. There are various therapeutic strategies to reduce the risk of developing lymphedema or to treat it. Among the management options is complex decongestive therapy (CDT), which is a conservative treatment that includes manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), compression therapy, skin care, and lymph-reducing exercises (LRE). Surgical options include lymph node transfer and lymphovenous anastomosis; redirecting lymphatic circulation and reducing edema in the affected limb. This is why the current research is undertaken, aiming to evaluate the effectiveness of combining these two treatment approaches in terms of reducing lymphedema, the presence of cellulitis, and changes in patients' quality of life
