Trial summary

Arteriosclerosis is a dynamic inflammatory disorder. Recently, FDG-PET CT is emerging diagnostic tool of non-invasive technique to detect vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque. And there are arising evidence that sRAGE(soluble Receptor for Advanced glycation End Product) is correlated with metabolic risk. Read more about this study

About this study

Arteriosclerosis is a dynamic inflammatory disorder. Recently, FDG-PET CT is emerging diagnostic tool of non-invasive technique to detect vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque. And there are arising evidence that sRAGE(soluble Receptor for Advanced glycation End Product) is correlated with metabolic risk. So the investigators will investigate association between sRAGE and FDG-PET uptake in large artery in healthy patient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of sRAGE Level and SUV and TBR Levels in FDG PET, run by Korea University.

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 1 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 6 Apr 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01021514, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Apr 2011.
