About this study

Official title: Novel Dynamic PET Kinetics and MRI Radiomics Analyses in Brain Tumors

This early phase I trial tests the use of a radioactive tracer (a drug that is visible during an imaging test) known as 18F-FMAU, for imaging with positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with brain cancer or cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). A PET/CT scan is an imaging test that uses a small amount of radioactive tracer (given through the vein) to take detailed pictures of areas inside the body where the tracer is taken up. 18F-FMAU may also help find the cancer and how far the disease has spread. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of imaging test used to diagnose brain tumors. 18F-FMAU PET/CT in addition to MRI may make the finding and diagnosing of brain tumor easier.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Assess the correlation between multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) radiomics and dynamic 2'-fluoro-5-methyl-1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyluracil (FMAU) PET kinetic analysis parameters.

II. Explore the different pattern in radiomics mpMRI and FMAU PET kinetic analysis parameters between patients with presence or absence of recurrent tumor.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive 18F-FMAU intravenously (IV) and undergo a PET/CT scan over 60 minutes. Patients then undergo standard of care mpMRI over approximately 45 minutes.

After completion of study intervention, patients are followed up at 24-96 hours after their 18F-FMAU PET/CT scan.

Being tested
Computed Tomography, 18F-FMAU, Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Positron Emission Tomography
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) radiomics and dynamic fluorine F 18 (18F)-FAMU (FMAU) positron emission tomography (PET) kinetic analysis parameters

    Scatter plots will be used to illustrate the pattern of correlation. For normality distributed data, Pearson correlation will be used; otherwise, Spearman correlation will be used. There will be 90 pairs of correlations. To further confirm the robustness of the correlation finding, the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure will be applied to prevent false discovery.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Different pattern in radiomics mpMRI and FMAU PET kinetic analysis parameters

    Interesting patterns will be observed at individual subject level for the difference between presence or absence of recurrent tumor, which defined as either underlying immunohistochemistry (Ki67-MIB proliferation marker, when tissue sample is available, or a binary proxy marker of subsequent clinical management decision (with wait-and-watch strategy for 1 month after imaging studies considered as "absence" of recurrent tumor, otherwise marked as "presence" of recurrent tumor). Heatmap will be used with subject identification as x-axis and each radiomic/kinetic feature as y-axis. Features will be divided by categories to facilitate the visualization of patterns.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Computed Tomography, 18F-FMAU and Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging in people with Anatomic Stage IV Breast Cancer AJCC v8 and Clinical Stage IV Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8, run by University of Southern California 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 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 24 May 2024. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Correlation between multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) radiomics and dynamic fluorine F 18 (18F)-FAMU (FMAU) positron emission tomography (PET) kinetic analysis parameters (time frame: Up to 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 May 2024.
