About this study

Official title: 18F-FMISO-PET, 18F-FDG-PET/CT, DWI-MRI and DCE-MRI Scans as Predictors of Response to Radiotherapy +/- Chemotherapy in Patients With Anal Cancer.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the predictive value of 18F-fluoromisonidazol-PET (FMISO-PET), 2-18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glukose-PET-CT (FDG-PET-CT), Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DWI-MRI) and Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) for patients with anal cancer receiving radiation therapy +/- chemotherapy (Cisplatin and 5-FU).

Read the detailed description

The study involves tree MRI sessions, two FDG-PET-CT sessions and one FMISO-PET session. The FMISO-PET session is presently not carried out because of delivery problems. The production of 18F-fluoromisonidazol at The Department of Clinical Physiology and Nuclear Medicine, Copenhagen University Hospital Herlev, Denmark has not jet been approved by the Danish Medicines Agency.

What participants receive

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

  • FMISO-PET, FDG-PET-CT and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Other

    This study involves 6 imaging sessions. One FMISO-PET before radiation therapy, one FDG-PET-CT before radiation therapy and one FDG-PET-CT during radiation therapy and tree Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) sessions with one session before radiation therapy, one session during radiation therapy and one sessions post radiation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Tumor response

    • Primary tumor 18-F-deoxyglucose (FDG) uptake before radiation and during week 3 of radiation.
    • Primary tumor apparent diffusion coefficient before radiation and during week 3 of radiation and 6-8 weeks post radiation
    • Primary tumor perfusion coefficient before radiation and during week 3 of radiation and 6-8 weeks post radiation
    • Primary tumor 18-F-Fluoromisonidazol (FMISO) uptake before radiation

    Measured: 6-8 weeks post radiation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anal Cancer, run by Copenhagen University Hospital at Herlev at 1 site in Denmark.

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 5 inclusion and 13 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 12 Apr 2011. 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 Denmark. 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 Eva Serup-Hansen, MD (+4538689084, evseha01@heh.regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Tumor response (time frame: 6-8 weeks post radiation). 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 12 Apr 2011.
