About this study

Official title: Dual PET/CT Imaging in Lung Cancer (Danish Title: En og Tre Timers FDG-PET/CT Ved Lungecancer)

The purpose of this study is to compare conventional PET/CT scan performed 1 hour after injection of the radioactive tracer FDG (PET/CT[1]) with PET/CT performed after 3 hours (PET/CT[3]) in a group of patients with biopsy verified lung cancer or high suspicion of lung cancer after initial work-up (chest x-ray and CT of thorax/upper abdomen), who are potentially operable.

Read the detailed description

The investigators also want to:

  • To find the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in PET/CT 1h and 3 h in the staging of lung cancer (N-/M-stage). Our gold standard is pathology, when not possible - follow-up (se Gold Standard 6.1.1)
  • To compare SUVmax with the expression of GLUT1 and G-6-Pase in tumors
  • To compare the expression of GLUT1 with the activity of G6Pase
  • To compare SUVmax, RI, tumor/liver ratio, GLUT1 and G-6-Pase with the occurrence of relapse within a year after curative surgery

What participants receive

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

  • Dual FDG-PET/CTOther

    Conventional FDG-PET/CT preformed after 1 hour and additional PET/CT 3 hours after injection

lung cancer or high suspicion of lung cancerAfter initial work-up (chest x-ray, CT of thorax and upper abdomen, spirometry) found to have surgically resectable lung cancer
Receives: Other: Dual FDG-PET/CT

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity, specificity and accuracy

    To find the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in PET/CT 1h and 3 h in the staging of lung cancer (N-/M-stage). Our gold standard is pathology, when not possible - follow-up

    Measured: After staging or 1 year of follow up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Occurence of relapse

    • To compare SUVmax, RI, tumor/liver ratio, GLUT1 and G-6-Pase with the occurrence of relapse within a year after curative surgery

    Measured: 1 year follow up after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer, run by Odense University Hospital 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 25 Jun 2013. 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 Mie H Vilstrup, MD, Principal investigor (+45 2159 3008, mie.holm.vilstrup@rsyd.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity, specificity and accuracy (time frame: After staging or 1 year of follow up). 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 25 Jun 2013.
