Trial summary

The management of thyroid cancer patients with suspicion of recurrent disease based on rising/detectable levels of thyroglobulin (Tg) involves imaging with iodine-123 whole body scintigraphy (I-123 WBS) and F-18 FDG PET/CT. However, the disease is not always detected. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of I-124 PET/CT, F-18 FDG PET/CT and I-123 Whole Body Scintigraphy for Recurrent Thyroid Cancer Detection

The management of thyroid cancer patients with suspicion of recurrent disease based on rising/detectable levels of thyroglobulin (Tg) involves imaging with iodine-123 whole body scintigraphy (I-123 WBS) and F-18 FDG PET/CT. However, the disease is not always detected. The use of another iodine isotope (I-124) with positron emitting characteristics for PET/CT may allow better identification of recurrent disease, thus allowing for more patients to be treated with I-131 as a curative attempt.

Read the detailed description

The management of thyroid cancer patients with suspicion of recurrent disease based on rising/detectable levels of thyroglobulin (Tg) involves imaging with iodine-123 whole body scintigraphy (I-123 WBS) and F-18 FDG PET/CT. However, the disease is not always detected. The use of another iodine isotope (I-124) with positron emitting characteristics for PET/CT may allow better identification of recurrent disease, thus allowing for more patients to be treated with I-131 as a curative attempt.

Conducting this study we hope to find whether I-124 PET/CT allows for detection of more lesions in patients with suspected recurrent thyroid cancer than the current standard of care represented by I-123 WBS and F-18 FDG PET/CT.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thyroid Cancer, run by Stanford University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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.

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 21 Jun 2022.
