Muse Magnetic Resonance Guided Focused Ultrasound System for the Treatment of Breast Cancer
This phase I trial tests the safety and tolerability of a new investigational device, MUSE Magnetic Resonance Guided Focused Ultrasound System (MRgFUS) System in treating patients with breast cancer. The MRgFUS System destroys part of the tumor through the use of heat from a focused ultrasound (thermal ablation) that is guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Focused ultrasound is a sound wave that is focused down to a small point, about the size of a grain of rice, similar to the way a magnifying glass can focus light. The focused waves heat up tissue, causing tissue damage. The MRgFUS System may be a less invasive way to treat breast cancer.

- STEP 2 REGISTRATION: Patient must continue to meet all step 1 eligibility criteria
- STEP 2 REGISTRATION: Patient must have successfully completed pre-treatment MRI in MUSE device
- STEP 2 REGISTRATION: Tumor to be ablated size must be between 1 and 5 cm and the portion (< 50%) of the tumor to be ablated must be located > 1 cm from the chest wall and skin as assessed by disease assessment imaging
- STEP 2 REGISTRATION: Negative pregnancy test or evidence of post-menopausal status or evidence of permanent surgical sterilization (i.e. bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or hysterectomy). The postmenopausal status will be defined as having been amenorrheic for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. The following age-specific requirements apply: * Women < 50 years of age: ** Amenorrheic for >= 12 months following cessation of exogenous hormonal treatments; and *** Luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone levels in the postmenopausal range for the institution * Women >= 50 years of age: ** Amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments; or ** Had radiation-induced menopause with last menses > 1 year ago; or ** Had chemotherapy-induced menopause with last menses > 1 year ago
Exclusion Criteria
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Receiving other investigational agents at the time of study registration
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Prior systemic anti-cancer therapy or any investigational therapy for neoadjuvant treatment of breast cancer
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Prior radiation therapy to the ipsilateral breast or radiation whose field(s) encompassed the breast within which the current diagnosis of cancer is made
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: The diagnosis of another malignancy within =< 2 years before study enrollment, except for those considered to be adequately treated with no evidence of disease or symptoms and/or will not require therapy during the study duration (i.e., basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, carcinoma in situ of the breast, or bladder or of the cervix). Low risk malignancies may be allowed after discussion with principal investigator (PI) and medical monitor.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Women with breast implants
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Pregnant or lactating women
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Inability to lie prone for 90 minutes as reported by patient or determined by investigator assessment
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Known prior adverse reaction or allergy to commonly used sedatives (i.e. versed, propofol) (National Cancer Institute [NCI] Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE] version [v]5.0 grade >= 3)
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Known prior adverse reaction or allergy to gadolinium contrast (NCI CTCAE v5.0 Grade >= 3)
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Contraindication to MRI as determined by treating physician or patient response on MRI patient history and safety questionnaire
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: Medical, psychiatric, cognitive, or other conditions in the opinion of the investigator that may compromise the subject's ability to understand the subject information, give informed consent, comply with the study protocol or complete the study
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: COHORT 1 ONLY: Patient’s tumor is grade 3 as determined in consultation with pathologist and treating physician
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: COHORT 1 ONLY: The amount of invasive tumor in the core biopsy specimen is small as determined in consultation with pathologist and treating physician
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: COHORT 1 ONLY: Core biopsy result is equivocal for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) after testing by both in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: COHORT 1 ONLY: There is doubt about the handling of the core biopsy specimen (long ischemic time, short time in fixative, different fixative), or the test is suspected by the pathologist to be negative on the basis of testing error

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of soft tissue ablation with the Muse MRgFUS system as assessed by subject-reported procedural pain and incidence of device- and procedure-related adverse device effects and adverse events.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate ablation efficacy.
II. To estimate disease-free survival (DFS) at 5 years post ablation.
III. To estimate overall survival in this study population at 5 years post ablation.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate subject preference for treatment of localized breast cancer with the Muse MRgFUS System and identify the potential trade-offs they would be willing to accept.
II. To evaluate correlation between the change in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels and ablation efficacy.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo ablation of the tumor using the MRgFUS system over 1.5-3 hours. Within 30 days, patients undergo surgery per standard of care. Patients undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood sample collection throughout the study.
After completion of study, patients are followed up at day 30, 6 and 12 months.
