Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Bone Metastasis and Surgery in Breast Cancer

Study Description

Brief Summary: A registry trial evaluating resection of the primary breast tumor in women presenting with de novo stage IV breast cancer with bone metastasis only. Previous reports of carefully selected patients presenting with stage IV breast cancer suggest that surgery on the primary tumor may result in improved survival, but this remains unproven. The early results of our ongoing trial MF07-01 trial (a phase III randomized controlled trial of breast cancer women with distant metastases at presentation who receive loco-regional treatment for intact primary tumor compared with those who do not receive such treatment) showed that patients with bone metastasis only have a trend toward improved survival with initial surgery.

Detailed Description: This registry trial evaluating resection of the primary breast tumor in women presenting with de novo stage IV breast cancer with bone metastasis only. Previous reports of carefully selected patients presenting with stage IV breast cancer suggest that surgery on the primary tumor may result in improved survival, but this remains unproven. The early results of our ongoing trial MF07-01 trial (a phase III randomized controlled trial of breast cancer women with distant metastases at presentation who receive loco-regional treatment for intact primary tumor compared with those who do not receive such treatment) showed that patients with bone metastasis only have a trend toward improved survival with initial surgery. Our goal is to test if primary surgery improves overall survival in bone only metastasis.
