Who may be able to join

  • Eligible disease(s)/stage(s) AJCC Stage I, II, III or IV lung cancer of any histology to be treated using radiotherapy will be eligible for this study. Note that we will carefully consider the inclusion of cases with turbulent flow or greater flow velocities (Cabahug et al., 1996; Crawford et al., 1990) and COPD cases (Magnant et al., 2006) due to the impaction of aerosol particles in central airways.

  • Age restriction and/or gender/ethnic restrictions
  • Patients must be greater than or equal to 18 years of age.
  • There are no gender or ethnic restrictions.
  • Life expectancy restrictions - None.

Study groups in NCT01034514
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
4DCT armExperimentalPatients breathe in 99mTc-DTPA and then undergo ventilation scans using a SPECT scanner over 2 hours. Patients also receive 99mTc-MAA IV and then undergo perfusion scans using a SPECT scanner over 2 hours. Patients may also undergo a pre- and post-treatment Xe-CT ventilation scan over 15 minutes and a pre-treatment 4D-CT scan over 5-10 minutes.
Receives: Device: Real-time Position Management system; Device: Discovery ST multislice PET/CT scanner; Device: Infinia Hawkeye SPECT/CT gamma camera; Device: Pinnacle3 treatment planning system; Device: SKYLight nuclear camera; Drug: DTPA; Drug: TECHNETIUM TC 99M MAA

What is being measured

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

  1. The overall correlation between the 4D-CT and the SPECT ventilation images.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The difference between the local ventilation at simulation and during the treatment. Dose-volume or functional dose-volume metrics. The regression coefficient between the regional ventilation and time. The mean dose to the high-functional lung region.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Real-time Position Management system, Discovery ST multislice PET/CT scanner and Infinia Hawkeye SPECT/CT gamma camera in people with Lung Cancer, run by Billy W. Loo Jr. 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 10 inclusion and 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2017. 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 was stopped early (reason given: business decision). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The overall correlation between the 4D-CT and the SPECT ventilation images. (time frame: 24 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 8 May 2017.
