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 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Histologic or imaging evidence of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder
  • Age ≥ 18 years of age
  • If female of childbearing potential, pregnancy test is negative. (In these instances, the patient will need to provide documentation of negative pregnancy test results.)

  • Presence of pacemaker/implantable cardiac device (ICD) or perfusion pumps
  • Ferromagnetic implants such as aneurysm clips, surgical clips, prostheses, artificial heart, valves with steel parts, metal fragments, shrapnel, bullets, tattoos near the eye, or steel implants.
  • Substance abuse, medical, psychological, or social conditions that may interfere with the patient's participation in the study

About this study

The overarching goal of this project is to explore whether associations exist between metrics obtained from PET/MRI incorporating advanced MRI sequences and features of bladder cancer, including grade, stage, and treatment response.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will assess an advanced non-Gaussian diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) model termed diffusion kurtosis imaging, multi-echo T2 mapping, dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI using a motion-robust high-temporal and high-resolution radial acquisition scheme employing compressed sensing, and simultaneously acquired 18-fluoro (18F)- fluorodeoxygluclose (FDG) data. Preliminary data demonstrates the investigators ability to execute and evaluate all of these techniques at the investigators center. The investigators hypothesize that these techniques will be sensitive to functional and metabolic differences between subsets of bladder cancer cases and will improve upon the performance of current imaging protocols in bladder cancer characterization. Moreover, the investigators believe that these techniques will provide complementary information, such that they may be combined in a synergistic fashion for bladder cancer evaluation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Tumor standardized uptake value (SUV) from 18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/MRI scan

    The tumor SUV value obtained approximately one hour following 18-fluorodeoxyglucose administration will be measured.

    Measured: within one week of study completion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PET/MRI in people with Bladder Cancer, run by NYU Langone Health 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 4 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 14 Aug 2017. 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?

Tumor standardized uptake value (SUV) from 18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/MRI scan (time frame: within one week of study completion). 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 14 Aug 2017.
