About this study

This pilot study aims to monitor early tumour response based on [18F]FLT-PET/MRI scans and to determine the feasibility of personalised radiotherapy to spare active bone marrow areas identified by [18F]FLT-PET/MRI. Bone marrow within the pelvis will be outlined by employing 18FLT PET to identify active BM within bony structures. Subsequently, treatment plans with various conformal radiotherapy techniques will be generated with different optimization approaches toward bone marrow while ensuring adequate tumor coverage.

Dosimetric comparison amongst plans will be carried out.

What participants receive

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

  • [18F]FLT-PET/MRI body scanDiagnostic test

    [18F]FLT-PET/MRI body scan will be done at

    • Visit 2 (Baseline-Pre-Treatment FLT-PET/MRI) which will occur between 1 to 28 days prior to initiation of radiotherapy.
    • Visit 3 (During Treatment FLT-PET/MRI) which will occur between week 4 to week 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy).

    At these visits:

    • Obtain vital signs and weight in kg before FLT administration.
    • Record the dose of FLT received and injected. (**specify dose: 1mCi per 10kg. Maximum injected dose: < 10mCi per patient.)
    • Place one (1) IV catheters into the participant's arm vein to inject the bolus of FLT.
    • Perform a saline flush following the FLT injection.
    • Body PET/MRI will be performed after FLT injection.
    • Time of injection of FLT and time of scan will need to be recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the feasibility of [18F]FLT-PET/MRI imaging for early prediction of treatment by comparison of changes in baseline SUV uptake at Week 4-5 of External Beam Radiotherapy

    Measured: Baseline (1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy) and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Compare SUV uptake of FLT with FDG PET at diagnosis

    Measured: Baseline, 1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)

  2. Compare SUV uptake of FLT before and after chemoRT

    Measured: Baseline, 1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)

  3. To compare differences in tumor and regional staging between PET/MRI, PET/CT and MRI scans, determined from the tumor size and extent of local involvement

    Measured: Baseline (1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy) and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)

  4. Assess the feasibility of PET/MRI in the radiation treatment planning workflow with respect to the adequacy of image quality and image fusion of PET/MRI data with the treatment planning CT for marrow sparing RT plan

    Measured: Through patient treatment completion, an average of 3 months

  5. Compare changes in stimulated radiation treatment volume when derived from PET/MRI vs PET/CT vs MRI

    Measured: Baseline, 1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)

  6. Compare VMAT versus IMRT versus proton versus tomotherapy for best marrow sparing plan

    Measured: Baseline, 1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)

  7. To determine the correlation of [18F]FLT parameters as baseline, during treatment and change in [18F] FLT parameters with clinical outcome and response

    Measured: Baseline, 1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing [18F]FLT-PET/MRI body scan in people with Image, Body and Cervix Cancer, run by National Cancer Centre, Singapore at 1 site in Singapore.

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 9 inclusion and 10 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 May 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 Singapore. 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?

Contact Kiattisa Sommat (64368000, kiattisa.sommat@singhealth.com.sg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the feasibility of [18F]FLT-PET/MRI imaging for early prediction of treatment by comparison of changes in baseline SUV uptake at Week 4-5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (time frame: Baseline (1 to 28 days before prior initiation of radiotherapy) and Week 4 - 5 of External Beam Radiotherapy (before brachytherapy)). 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 2 May 2022.
