Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to use a new type of scan, called 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT scan, instead of OctreoScan, the standard scan, to diagnose, monitor and manage your tumor. 68Ga-DOTATOC is an improved imaging agent being routinely used in many centers outside the USA, with better tumor detection than with OctreoScan.

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 5 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients diagnosed or suspected NET requiring 111In-pentetreotide imaging for clinical indications.
  • High risk of NET because of familial predisposition with clinical findings requiring radiolabeled somatostatin imaging.
  • Other somatostatin positive tumor for which 111In-pentetreotide has been used successfully (for example adult meningioma).
  • Ability of subject or Legally Authorized Representative (LAR) (if the patient is deemed by the treating physician to be cognitively impaired or questionably impaired in such a way that the ability of the patient to give informed consent is questionable) to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Pregnant or lactating women: Pregnant women are excluded from this study because the effects of 68Ga-DOTATOC in pregnancy are not known; exceptions may be performed if expected risk outweighs the benefit. Pregnancy testing will follow MITS procedure for diagnostic reagents. Patients self report pregnancy status. If pregnant the test will not be performed unless in the clinical opinion of the attending physician the gain of the test is likely to outweigh the risk (this will be rare). If unsure whether pregnant or not then a urine or serum pregnancy will be performed.
  • Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to administration of 68Ga-DOTATOC in the mother, breastfeeding should be discontinued for at least one day if the mother receives 68Ga-DOTATOC.
  • Patients that have contraindications for 111In-pentetreotide.
  • Known severe allergy or hypersensitivity to oral contrast will preclude administration of such contrast (will preclude receiving oral contrast only).
  • Patients with a body weight of 400 pounds or more or not able to enter the bore of the PET/CT scanner due to BMI, because of the compromise in image quality with CT, PET/CT and MRI that will result.
  • Any additional medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, or other extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may significantly interfere with study compliance.

What participants receive

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

  • 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT ScanDrug

    Study participants will undergo the 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT after informed consent. The nominal injected dose will be up 3-5.5 mCi containing approximately 10 - 50 microgram of 68Ga-DOTATOC and will be injected via IV access lines. CT scans will be performed with our standard oral contrast agent (typically Omnipaque and/or barium) in accordance with our standard FDG practice unless some contraindication is present. Uptake period following injection will be 0.75-1hour. Acquisition time will be approximately ~1 hour. In patients who may not be able to lie still, anesthesia will be provided as per routine standard clinical practice.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT Scan in people with Neuroendocrine Tumors, 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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Nov 2016. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?
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 2 Nov 2016.
