About this study

Official title: Detection of Functioning Pituitary Microadenoma With Inconclusive MRI Findings: PET/MRI Versus PET/CT

This is a prospective case-control study to compare the usefulness of 18F-FDG PET/MRI with that of 18F-FDG PET/CT in detection of functioning pituitary microadenomas.A single dose of 370 Mega-Becquerel (MBq) 18F-FDG will be injected intravenously.Visual and semiquantitative method will be used to assess the PET/MRI and PET/CT images.

Read the detailed description

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be insufficient to locate functioning pituitary microadenoma.This study compared the usefulness of 18F-FDG PET/MRI with that of 18F-FDG PET/CT in detection of functioning pituitary microadenomas in patients with inconclusive conventional MRI findings. Trans-sphenoidal adenomectomy was performed within 2 weeks of imaging.The PET/CT and PET/MRI findings and tracer uptake levels were correlated with the surgical findings and pathological results.

What participants receive

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

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
18F-FDG PET/MRI and 18F-FDG PET/CTExperimentalThe patients were injected with 370 MBq of 18F-FDG in one dose intravenously and underwent PET/MRI or PET/CT scan 1 hour later
Receives: Drug: 18F-FDG

What is being measured

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

  1. Standardized uptake value of 18F-FDG in pituitary adenoma

    The semiquantitative analysis will be performed by the same person for all the cases, and the standardized uptake value (SUV) of the tracer in pituitary adenoma will be measured

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse events collection

    Adverse events within 1 week after the injection and scanning of patients and patients will be followed and assessed

    Measured: 1 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 18F-FDG in people with Pituitary Adenoma, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 1 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 19 Jan 2018. 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 China. 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 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.

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

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?

Contact Hao Wang, PhD (+86 10 69154196, 474556259@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Standardized uptake value of 18F-FDG in pituitary adenoma (time frame: 5 years). 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 19 Jan 2018.
