Observational Study.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01996046). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: University of Pennsylvania. Recruitment status: COMPLETED. Study type: OBSERVATIONAL. Enrollment: 26 participants (ACTUAL). Conditions: Estrogen Receptor Positive Breast Cancer, Bone Metastases. Interventions: OTHER: FDG PET/CT scan. Primary outcome measures: Progression free survival , medical record reviewed every 6 months from date of enrollment to date of progression, up to 120 months. Brief summary: This study will evaluate baseline uptake on a FDG PET/CT scan in patients with breast cancer that has spread to the bones. A repeat FDG PET/CT scan will be done 4 weeks after the start of new breast cancer hormone treatment and again at 12 weeks after treatment start. The baseline uptake and change in uptake after the repeat scans will be compared to clinical long term outcomes such as time to progression and overall survival. In addition the uptake will be compared to the incidence of skeletal related events that are common occurrences in patients with cancer that has spread to the bones.
