About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II, Open Label, Nonrandomized, Multi-Center Study of [F-18]HX4 Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in Head and Neck Cancer Patients

The purpose of this trial is to determine what will be the optimal imaging protocol for Head and Neck Cancer patients after [F-18] HX4 injection. This study will provide guidance for future studies involving [F-18]HX4 in cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

Each consented patient will have a single administration of [F-18]HX4 and will immediately undergo one list mode PET/CT imaging session lasting 60 minutes followed by three additional list mode PET/CT acquisitions from 90 to 110 minutes, 150 to 170 minutes and 220 to 250 minutes after administration. The start times of the last three image acquisitions are permitted to be within ± 5 minutes. Venous blood samples will be collected throughout the initial scan sequence and at the time of each subsequent acquisition for calibration and metabolite-correction of the image-derived input function. On the day of administration (Visit 2) blood for clinical safety evaluations will be drawn pre- and post-dosing after all imaging is complete.

The pre-surgery [F-18]FDG PET/CT clinical scan performed prior to the [F-18]HX4 procedure, and the surgery at Visit 3 are standard of care for the consented patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Serial measures of T/B Ratios and other imaging parameters

    Serial measures of T/B ratios and other imaging parameters derived from the course imaging data of head and neck cancer pateitns in order to determine time of optimal imaging.

    Measured: Approximately 1 month after patient imaging; comprehensive analysis will be concluded within 1 month after Last Patient Out

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Correlations between T/B ratios of [F-18]HX4 uptake from pre-surgery PET imaging and immunohistochemistry measurements

    Correlations between T/B ratios of [F-18]HX4 uptake from pre-surgery PET imaging and immunohistochemistry measurements obtained from surgical tumor samples

    Measured: Estimated analysis to occur 1 month after patient surgery

  2. Kinetic Modeling Analysis

    Kinetic parameters obtained from modeling time course of PET imaging data following [F-18]HX4 administration

    Measured: Estimated to be 2 weeks after the Imaging Date (Visit 2)

  3. Safety Assessments

    Safety measurements including incidence of adverse events, and pre- and post-drug clinical laboratory measurements, vital signs and electrocardiograms

    Measured: On average of 3 weeks (from Time of Signing Consent to 24 hours after the Imaging Date)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing [F-18] HX4 in people with Head and Neck Cancer, run by Siemens Molecular Imaging 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 7 inclusion and 5 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2012. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Serial measures of T/B Ratios and other imaging parameters (time frame: Approximately 1 month after patient imaging; comprehensive analysis will be concluded within 1 month after Last Patient Out). 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 17 Dec 2012.
