Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to see whether fast imaging with MRI and the usual contrast material used for MRI, predicts which patients will do well with treatment. Some studies suggest that MRIs done right before surgery may be able to tell how much of the cancer was killed by the chemotherapy. Read more about this study

About this study

The purpose of this study is to see whether fast imaging with MRI and the usual contrast material used for MRI, predicts which patients will do well with treatment. Some studies suggest that MRIs done right before surgery may be able to tell how much of the cancer was killed by the chemotherapy. This study will see if this is true in patients with osteogenic sarcoma (OS) and Ewing's sarcoma (ES). This study will also see if MRIs done early in treatment can tell if the chemotherapy is working.

Read the detailed description

Patients will undergo DCE-MRI studies prior to chemotherapy, 18-24 days after starting treatment, continue treatment and undergo a third MRI within 25 days prior to surgery. All patients with OS or Ewing sarcoma who will undergo pre-operative chemotherapy are eligible for study. Anti-neoplastic therapy will be determined by the primary physician and will not be impacted upon by this study, although the data will be made available to the physicians involved in the patient's care. The goals of this study are: 1) To determine if pre-operative dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) can reliably predict percent necrosis at definitive surgery in bone tumors after induction chemotherapy. 2) Evaluate the hypothesis that in patients with Ewing or osteogenic sarcoma (OS), the a priori or early (18-24 days into treatment) DCE-MRI study predicts pathological percent necrosis measured at surgery, and disease free survival. 3) Determine if the DCE-MRI results are independent markers of tumor response compared to current clinical markers (LDH, alkaline phosphatase (osteogenic sarcoma only), primary disease site, primary disease size (length and volume), stage). 4) Compare the DCE-MRI results with several key molecular parameters including p53 mutations and CDKN2A deletion in Ewing's sarcoma and RB alterations, CDKN2A deletion, and expression of HER-2, platelet derived growth factor, reduced folate carrier, and pglycoprotein in osteogenic sarcoma. Ewing's sarcoma and osteogenic sarcoma samples will also be submitted for Affymetrix expression microarray analysis. Summary: This project will determine the potential of DCE-MRI to predict tumor necrosis and as an a priori or early marker of tumor response to neoadjuvant therapy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • DCE-MRIOther

    Patients will undergo DCE-MRI prior to, and within 18-24 days of starting chemotherapy. These studies are designed to determine if the DCE-MRI data will provide an a priori or early prognostic marker of tumor response. The dynamic MRI is done on a standard clinical scanner using standard techniques described below.

    MR imaging studies will be acquired on a 1.5T GE (Milwaukee,WI) Signa LX scanner.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pts will undergo baseline MRI prior to begin chemotherapy. Bet 18-24 days after beginning chemotherapy, they will undergo second MRI. They will continue chemotherapy and w/in 25 days prior definitive surgery, will undergo another MRI.

    Measured: 8 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DCE-MRI in people with Sarcoma and Bone Tumor, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pts will undergo baseline MRI prior to begin chemotherapy. Bet 18-24 days after beginning chemotherapy, they will undergo second MRI. They will continue chemotherapy and w/in 25 days prior definitive surgery, will undergo another MRI. (time frame: 8 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Apr 2014.
