Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to develop new image analysis method using Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) for ovarian cancer. MRI is not currently part of the standard care for ovarian cancer. In this method, a contrast agent is used to make ovarian cancer visible during imaging. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 21 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The patients will be recruited from the existing patient population at Gynecologic Medical Oncology Service at MSKCC. The patients meeting the eligibility criteria will be referred to DCE-MRI study by a physician in the GMO service at MSKCC.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with measurable disease with evidence of at least one uni-dimensionally measurable tumor (> 1 cm) by CT or MRI scan according to RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) that the tumor has not been initially treated with surgery or radiation therapy.
  • Patients who will start treatment with bevacizumab combined with or without cytotoxic chemotherapy within 14 days from signing consent. Patients treated on an approved IRB therapeutic protocol for recurrent ovarian cancer with bevacizumab are eligible.
  • Patients with histologically confirmed ovarian epithelial cancer including primary peritoneal and fallopian tube adenocarcinoma.
  • Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to the study entry and be practicing an effective form of contraception.
  • Patients who are older than 21 years of age.
  • Patients who are able to understand and sign informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Patients treated on an approved IRB therapeutic protocol with a blinded arm of bevacizumab or placebo are not eligible (IRB 07-078 and IRB 05-138).
  • Patients with cardiac pacemakers.
  • Patients with certain prosthetic devices and implants who are not compatible with the high magnetic field present in the DCE-MRI scanners.
  • Patients who have experienced a prior adverse reaction to the gadolinium complex contrast agent used in DCE-MRI imaging and who don't meet criteria for creatinine and nephrogenic systemic sclerosis risk per guidelines of department of radiology.
  • Patients prone to claustrophobia.
  • Patients on dialysis.

What participants receive

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

  • DCE-MRI scansProcedure or surgery

    Initially you will be given safety information about MRI scans and a questionnaire to determine your compatibility with the MRI scanner. For each patient, DCE-MRI data sets will be acquired three times - at baseline just prior to the start of the drug therapy, within 24-48 hours of the start of the therapy, and within 6-8 weeks of the start of the therapy.

Study groups in NCT00946140
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with ovarian cancer currently undergoing treatmentAll of the patients will be treated per their treatment protocols by their physicians and they will be referred to this study for the DCE-MRI scans at baseline, within 24-48 hours of the start of the therapy, and within 6-8 weeks of the start of the therapy.
Receives: Procedure: DCE-MRI scans

What is being measured

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

  1. Development of automated motion correction algorithms and new functional methods that permit use of DCE-MRI in primary or metastatic tumors of the ovaries.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Testing of new methods using the DCE-MRI data sets for comparing changes in tumor perfusion with and without motion correction post anti-angiogenic therapy in ovarian cancer.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Cancer, 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 6 inclusion and 6 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 24 Oct 2013. 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?

Development of automated motion correction algorithms and new functional methods that permit use of DCE-MRI in primary or metastatic tumors of the ovaries. (time frame: 2 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 24 Oct 2013.
