Trial summary

Von Hippel Lindau disease (VHLD) is an inherited syndrome characterized by vascular malformations, kidney cancer, adrenal gland and pancreas tumors. The VHL protein is not functional in the different disease associated lesions which results in production of high amounts of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Visualizing VEGF Producing Lesions in Von Hippel-Lindau Disease

Von Hippel Lindau disease (VHLD) is an inherited syndrome characterized by vascular malformations, kidney cancer, adrenal gland and pancreas tumors. The VHL protein is not functional in the different disease associated lesions which results in production of high amounts of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Currently there are no clinical, radiographic or molecular markers that can predict the natural history of a given lesion. With 89Zr-bevacizumab positron emission tomography (PET) scanning, VEGF can be visualized and quantified.

The investigators hypothesize that 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging is a useful tool to predict the behaviour of disease associated lesions in patients with VHLD.

Adult patients with VHLD who have had routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of central nervous system (CNS) and abdomen will undergo a 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scan. MRI will be repeated within 12 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Detection rate of VHL associated lesions with 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scans in patients with VHLD

    Measured: An 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scan will be performed within 6 weeks after routine MRI CNS investigation, MRI will be repeated within 12 months.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Progressive lesions within 12 months, defined as new lesions or lesions that show an increase in size of at least 5% of the longest diameter on MRI, or lesions that become symptomatic

    Measured: The baseline MRI scan will be compared with a follow-up MRI scan within 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Von Hippel-Lindau Disease and Hemangioblastoma, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 6 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 Netherlands. 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?

Detection rate of VHL associated lesions with 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scans in patients with VHLD (time frame: An 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scan will be performed within 6 weeks after routine MRI CNS investigation, MRI will be repeated within 12 months.). 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 6 May 2024.
