Trial summary

Given the growing importance of anti-angiogenic therapies in the treatment of metastatic renal carcinoma, it is expected that this trial will establish the preliminary data needed to apply for funding of a larger clinical investigation of the potential role of PET perfusion imaging in management of renal carcinoma… Read more about this study

About this study

Given the growing importance of anti-angiogenic therapies in the treatment of metastatic renal carcinoma, it is expected that this trial will establish the preliminary data needed to apply for funding of a larger clinical investigation of the potential role of PET perfusion imaging in management of renal carcinoma, and potentially other cancers.

Being tested
150-Water, 62Cu-ethylglyoxal bis, Positron Emission Tomography, Sunitinib
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Renal Cell

What participants receive

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

  • 150-WaterDrug

    Patients will be imaged immediately before, and between 14-28 days after initiation of Sunitinib therapy, in the single bed position using the Siemens Biograph 64 TruePoint system located in the clinical facilities of the I.U. Cancer Center. Administer 15O-water at 50 mCi/dose, IV.

  • 62Cu-ethylglyoxal bisDrug

    Imaging with 62Cu-ETS will be done immediately following imaging with 150-water. Patients will be imaged immediately before, and between 14-28 days after, initiation of Sunitinib therapy using the Siemens Biograph 64 TruePoint system located in the clinical facilities of the I.U. Cancer Center. Administer 62Cu-ETS in the range of 20-25 mCi/Dose, IV.

  • Positron Emission TomographyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Seimens Biograph 64 TruePoint system

    PET Scan

  • SunitinibDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients Where 62Cu-ETS PET and 15O-water PET Was Obtained

    Number of patients who had at least a baseline measurement of 62Cu-ETS PET and 15O-water PET

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Maximum Standard Uptake Value (SUV) for Lesion Data

    Average values of the magnitude of tumor perfusion before and 14-28 days after initiation of Sunitinib treatment as measured by the maximum standard uptake value for all the lesion data. Standard uptake values were calculated as the ratio of the image derived radioactivity concentration and the whole body concentration of the injected radioactivity tracer. There were 14 patients who had a baseline reading and 12 patients who had a reading after treatment.

    Measured: Baseline and 14-28 days after initiation of Sunitinib

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 150-Water, 62Cu-ethylglyoxal bis and Positron Emission Tomography in people with Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Indiana University 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 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Mar 2019. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Apr 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Patients Where 62Cu-ETS PET and 15O-water PET Was Obtained (time frame: Baseline). 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 5 Mar 2019.
