Trial summary

This study evaluates whether tumors present in patients with cancer who are planned to get CAR T-cells have low amounts of oxygen (hypoxia). PET scans may be used to check the amounts of oxygen within areas of cancer with a special radioactive tracer called FAZA that specifically looks for areas of low oxygen. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of Hypoxia-Specific Imaging to Predict Outcomes of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy

This study evaluates whether tumors present in patients with cancer who are planned to get CAR T-cells have low amounts of oxygen (hypoxia). PET scans may be used to check the amounts of oxygen within areas of cancer with a special radioactive tracer called FAZA that specifically looks for areas of low oxygen. This study is being done to help researchers determine how the amount of oxygen within areas of cancer affect how well CAR T-cells kill cancer cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To evaluate the incidence of intratumoral hypoxia in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) malignancies before treatment with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To evaluate the association between intratumoral hypoxia and clinical responses to CAR T-cell therapy.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To correlate intratumoral hypoxia with markers of CAR T-cell activity and toxicity.
  2. To correlate pre-therapy fluorine F 18-fluoroazomycin arabinoside (18F-FAZA) uptake with pre-therapy 18Ffluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) uptake (if available).

OUTLINE:

Prior to CAR T-cell therapy, patients receive 18F-FAZA intravenously (IV). Beginning 2 hours after injection, patients undergo a single PET scan. Patients are followed for up to 6 months after CAR T-cell therapy.

Being tested
Fluorine F 18-fluoroazomycin Arabinoside, Positron Emission Tomography
Medical subject headings
Lymphoma, Large B-Cell, Diffuse, Recurrence, Multiple Myeloma, Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • Fluorine F 18-fluoroazomycin ArabinosideDrug

    Also called 18F-FAZA, 18F-Fluoroazomycin Arabinoside, FAZA F-18, Fluoroazomycin Arabinoside F-18

  • Positron Emission TomographyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Medical Imaging, Positron Emission Tomography, PET, PET Scan, Positron Emission Tomography Scan

    Undergo PET scan

Study groups in NCT04409314
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Diagnostic (18F-FAZA PET scan)Prior to CAR T-cell therapy, patients receive administration of 18F-FAZA IV. Patients will then undergo a vertex-thigh PET scan approximately 2 hours after injection of 18FFAZA lasting 30-45 minutes.
Receives: Drug: Fluorine F 18-fluoroazomycin Arabinoside; Procedure: Positron Emission Tomography

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of fluorine F 18-fluoroazomycin arabinoside (18F-FAZA) positron emission tomography (PET) scans with positive hypoxic volume (HV)

    Will calculate the uniformly minimum-variance unbiased estimator, p-value and 95% confidence interval (CI) for the response rates.

    Measured: After completion of one-time 18F-FAZA PET scan, 1 day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall response (OR)

    Will determine OR at any time point as attainment of either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). Logistic regressions will be used to evaluate the association between OR and intratumoral hypoxia, where hypoxia is analyzed as a binary and a continuous covariate.

    Measured: At 30, 90, and 180 days after chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Recurrent Aggressive Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and Recurrent Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, run by University of California, San Francisco 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 6 inclusion and 2 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 21 Aug 2023. 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?

Proportion of fluorine F 18-fluoroazomycin arabinoside (18F-FAZA) positron emission tomography (PET) scans with positive hypoxic volume (HV) (time frame: After completion of one-time 18F-FAZA PET scan, 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04409314, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 Aug 2023.
