General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The main objective entails detecting early development of lymphedema
and establishing a decrease in the incidence of lymphedema and/or
improvement or stabilization of the lymphofluoroscopic image when
treatment is started early.
|

Protection of trial subjects |
In accordance with the Belgian Law relating to experiments on human persons dated May 7, 2004, Sponsor shall assume, even without fault, the responsibility of any damages incurred by a Study Patient and linked directly or indirectly to the participation to the Study, and shall provide compensation therefore through its insurance.”

Notes [1] - The roles blinded appear inconsistent with a simple blinded trial. Justification: the assessor was blinded, she dind't knew in which group the patient was allocated |

Notes [2] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same. Justification: the total number of patients in the study was 128, but only 39 patients were randomized and analyzed |

Subject analysis set description |
- Patients in the treatment group will have a:
o Increase of the incidence of lymphedema of arm and hand (defined as 5% volume increase compared to the contralateral side)
o Improvement or stabilization of lymphatic transport visualized and measured by ICG fluoroscopy
- Patients with more aggressive breast-cancer treatment will have a higher chance of developing lymphedema.
- Early detection of lymphedema is possible by visualizing an abnormal pattern of ICG lymphofluoroscopy and/or by measuring lower velocity times of the lymph transport.
- Early detection of lymphedema is possible by measuring
o Change of volume measurements of the hand/arm
o Change of extracellular fluid in the arm
