About this study

Official title: Dual Point Acquisition in the Interim Pet Scan Performed During ABVD Treatment, in Early-Stage Hodgkin's Lymphoma Patients With Bulky Lesions

To assess specificity and overall accuracy of interim dual-point acquisition PET in predicting treatment outcome.

The study is aimed at assessing the specificity of interim dual-point PET performed after 2 ABVD cycles to predict treatment outcome in early-stage Hodgkin's Lymphoma patients presenting bulky lesions at baseline.

Read the detailed description

The proposed study is an non-interventional survey of a cohort of patients in whom interim PET scan is performed only for prognostic aims.

PET with 18F-FDG is a standard staging procedure for most lymphoma subtypes. Performed early during the therapy for Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) its results have a high prognostic value and is the main predictor of treatment outcome. From 2006 onward, interim-PET after 2 ABVD courses has been increasingly performed in the daily clinical practice as a routine test for disease prognosis, and now it can be considered as a standard prognostic tool.

The novelty of the study relies on a new method for interim-PET scan execution: a dynamic study, with 2 different time points of image acquisition. This could potentially enable us to discriminate between unspecific, inflammatory DG uptake, from a "true" uptake form persisting viable neoplastic cells. Therefore, the main aim of the study is reducing false positive results in the interim-PET scan interpretation. Since dynamic changes of FDG uptake in Hodgkin's lymphoma are still unknown we propose, in the present study, to assess the by the same acquisition technique the pattern of FDG uptake at baseline in untreated patients affected by this neoplasm.

The Institutions equipped with a Magnetic Resonance scanners and a diffusion weighted imaging analysis technique (DW-MRI), could participate to the DW-MRI sub-study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Event free survival (EFS)

    To assess feasibility of using interim dual-point acquisition PET in real world of clinical practice as well as describing the outcome of early stage HL patients.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of inflammation markers prognostic role

    To assess prognostic value of inflammation markers (ESR, CRP, Ferritin, Transferrin, Fibrinogen, Alpha 2-globulins) as biomarkers of treatment outcome in early stage HL patients

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Ospedale Santa Croce-Carle Cuneo at 6 sites in Italy.

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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Italy. 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 ANDREA GALLAMINI, MD (+390171642414, gallamini.a@ospedale.cuneo.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Event free survival (EFS) (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01399931, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 19 Oct 2015.
