About this study

The aim of this non-randomised, prospective study is to investigate the applicability and prognostic value of uPAR PET/CT with the radioligand 68Ga-NOTA-AE105 in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs).

Read the detailed description

68Ga-NOTA-AE105 is a radioligand targeting urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), which is a promising imaging biomarker of tumor aggressiveness. A total of 120 NET patients will be subjected to a uPAR-PET/CT scan. Follow-up will be performed (from the time of the angiogenesis PET/ CT) at 6 months for disease specific survival (DSS) and a 1 year follow-up for PFS and OS. The uptake of 68Ga-NOTA-AE105 in tumor lesions will be quantified as Standardized Uptake Values (SUVmax/SUVmean) and compared with PFS, DSS and OS (dichotomized above/below median SUVmax and analyzed by Kaplan-Meier)

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. uPAR PET/CT imaging of patients with neuroendocrine tumors

    The radioligand 68Ga-NOTA-AE105 can be used to visualize neuroendocrine tumors (grade G1-G3)

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. uPAR PET/CT prognostic factor for progression free survival

    The uptake of the 68Ga-NOTA-AE105 in neuroendocrine tumor lesions (quantified as Standard Uptake Values) is associated with progression free survival (PFS) neuroendocrine tumors (grade G1-G3)

    Measured: 12 months

  2. uPAR PET/CT prognostic factor for overall and disease specific survival

    The uptake of the 68Ga-NOTA-AE105 in neuroendocrine tumor lesions (quantified as Standard Uptake Values) is associated with overall and disease specific free survival (PFS) neuroendocrine tumors (grade G1-G3)

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing One injection of 68Ga-NOTA-AE105 and PET/CT in people with Neuroendocrine Tumors, run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet at 1 site in Denmark.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jun 2022. 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 Denmark. 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 phase mean?

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 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?

uPAR PET/CT imaging of patients with neuroendocrine tumors (time frame: 1 hour). 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 30 Jun 2022.
