Official Title:	Wide Excision Alone for DCIS-Grades 1 and 2

Further study details as provided by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute:

Primary Outcome Measures:

To determine if patients with DCIS can be effectively treated with wide excision alone. [ Time Frame: TBD-survivorship ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

To explore whether patients with grade 2 DCIS have a higher breast recurrence than patients with grade 1 DCIS. [ Time Frame: TBD-survivorship ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment:	200
Study Start Date:	May 1995
Estimated Study Completion Date:	July 2008
Primary Completion Date:	July 2002 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Intervention Details:

Wide excision of DCIS and a minimum of 1cm histologically negatic breast tissue

Detailed Description:

Treatment consists of wide excision that will remove the area of DCIS and a minimum of 1cm histologically negative margin of breast tissue. A post-excision mammogram will be performed to verify complete excision of all calcifications.
Follow-up consists of physical examinations at least every 6 months by the surgeon or radiation oncologist. Mammograms of the affected breast will be obtained every 6 months for 5 years and then annually. Mammograms of the unaffected breast will be performed annually.

Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:	18 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:	Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:	No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Patients must have high quality mammogram including magnification views of area containing suspicious calcifications.
The clinical extent of DCIS must be less than or equal to 2.5cm.
Grade 1 or 2 DCIS

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients with invasive carcinoma including microinvasive disease
Patients with nipple discharge
Patients with a history of prior malignancies other than squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix.
