PROJECT ABSTRACT Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent cancer and the second-leading cause of cancer-related death for women in the USA. For moderate-risk and, especially, low-risk women with a 1-in-8 lifelong chance of developing BC, there are very few options available to reduce their risk. For high-risk women, prophylactic mastectomy is currently the most effective procedure for preventing BC. This aggressive surgical procedure affects women physically, emotionally, psychologically, aesthetically, and socially. Therefore, there is a need to develop new strategies for primary prevention that focus on high-risk women, but that could also be applied to moderate- and low-risk women. Our overall hypothesis is that the local killing of mammary epithelial cells will be as effective as prophylactic mastectomy in preventing BC, but with minimal side effects. Our preliminary and published data demonstrate that intraductal (ID) injection of a 70% ethanol (EtOH) solution is effective at locally ablating mammary epithelial cells in rodent models and at preventing tumor formation in an aggressive mouse model of BC. The scientific rigor of prior preclinical and clinical research studies as well as clinical use of ID procedures strongly support the translational feasibility of our approach. We have developed a refined EtOH-based solution that contains: tantalum oxide (TaOx) nanoparticles as a high-resolution contrast agent to monitor in vivo filling of ductal trees by CT/X-ray imaging; and ethyl cellulose as gelling agent to further minimize collateral tissue damage. The research objectives of this study are: a) to optimize methods for achieving and in vivo visualizing maximal epithelial ablation; b) to determine the protective benefit and safety concerns of incomplete epithelial ablation; c) to understand the interactions of the components of the ablative solution with the tissue (e.g., fibrosis) and their potential interference with imaging findings (e.g., contrast clearance); and d) To apply this knowledge to establish a clinically compatible procedure for image-guided ablative therapy. To accomplish these, we propose the following two specific aims: Aim 1) To evaluate therapeutic efficacy and safety profile of the ID ablative procedure in rat models of breast cancer; Aim 2) To assess scalability of this image-guided ID ablative procedure in the multi-ductal tree system of a rabbit model. Given the clinical uses of EtOH, diagnostic ID procedures, and clinically compatible imaging protocols, positive results of this study could rapidly lead to the evaluation of image-guided EtOH-based ablation procedure in first-in-human clinical trials for high-risk women. If successful in a high-risk setting, this ID procedure could be offered to moderate- and low-risk women who want to decrease their chance of developing BC and the cancer-associated anxiety that affects their quality of life.

项目摘要 乳腺癌(BC)是最常见的癌症，也是与癌症相关的死亡的第二大原因 美国的女性。对于中等风险，特别是低风险女性，一生中有八分之一的机会发展为 在公元前，几乎没有什么选择可以降低他们的风险。对于高危女性，预防性乳房切除术是 目前预防BC最有效的方法。这一激进的外科手术影响了女性 身体上、情感上、心理上、审美上和社交上。因此，有必要开发新的 以高危妇女为重点的初级预防战略，但这也可以适用于中等和 低风险女性。我们的总体假设是，局部杀死乳腺上皮细胞的效果与 预防性乳房切除术预防乳腺癌，但副作用最小。我们的初步数据和公布的数据 证明导管内注射70%乙醇溶液在局部消融中是有效的 乳腺上皮细胞在啮齿动物模型中的作用和在侵袭性小鼠模型中的作用 公元前。先前临床前和临床研究的科学严格性以及ID程序的临床应用 强烈支持我们方法的翻译可行性。我们已经开发了一个基于乙醇的精细化解决方案 其中包括：氧化钽(TaOx)纳米颗粒作为高分辨率造影剂，用于监测体内充盈情况 CT/X-射线成像的导管树；乙基纤维素作为胶凝剂，以进一步减少侧支组织 损坏。本研究的研究目标是：a)优化实现和活体可视化的方法 最大限度地消融上皮；b)确定不完全上皮的保护效益和安全性 消融；c)了解消融液成分与组织的相互作用(例如，纤维化) 以及它们对成像结果的潜在干扰(例如，对比度清晰度)；以及d)应用这些知识 目的：建立一种符合临床需要的影像引导消融治疗方法。为了实现这些目标，我们 提出以下两个具体目标：目的1)评价ID的治疗效果和安全性 大鼠乳腺癌模型的消融手术；目的2)评估这种图像引导的ID消融的可扩展性 在兔模型的多导管树系统中的程序。鉴于乙醇的临床应用，诊断ID 程序和临床兼容的成像方案，这项研究的积极结果可能会迅速导致 影像引导无水酒精消融术在高危女性首次临床试验中的评价。 如果在高风险环境下成功，这种ID程序可以提供给希望 以减少他们患上BC的机会和影响他们生活质量的癌症相关焦虑。
