About this study

Official title: Positron Emission Tomography Study in Patients With Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as fluorine 18-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) scans, may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying fluorine 18-fludeoxyglucose PET scan to see how well it predicts outcomes in patients who have undergone high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant for non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine if a fluorine 18-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography scan, performed as early as day 30 after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation, may be useful in identifying patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma who may benefit from early interventions, including reduced intensity stem cell transplantation or additional therapy, to preempt disease relapse and improve overall survival.

OUTLINE: Conventional imaging, biopsy, and clinical examination findings are reviewed to determine patient clinical outcome (e.g., complete remission, disease progression/relapse, or death related to the primary disease).

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of fluorine 18-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography scan with with patients' clinical outcomes.

    Measured: from the date of stem cell transplant to date of clinical disease progression or to date of last follow-up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Progression-free survival

    Measured: from date of stem cell transplant to date of clinical disease progression or date of last follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lymphoma, run by Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center at 3 sites 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 26 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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?

Correlation of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of fluorine 18-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography scan with with patients' clinical outcomes. (time frame: from the date of stem cell transplant to date of clinical disease progression or to date of last follow-up). 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 26 Feb 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
