  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

  • Diagnosis of prostate adenocarcinoma by transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided biopsy between 28 to 90 days prior to enrollment

PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:

  • Able to tolerate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) required by protocol, to be performed at an American College of Radiology Imaging Network (ACRIN)-qualified facility and scanner

About this study

Official title: Repeatability Assessment of Quantitative DCE-MRI and DWI: A Multicenter Study of Functional Imaging Standardization in the Prostate

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging or DCE-MRI and diffusion-weighted imaging or DWI, may provide images of prostate cancer or any cancer that remains after biopsy.

PURPOSE: This trial studies repeated DCE-MRI and DWI in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the test-retest performance, assessed by the repeatability coefficient [RC] of K^trans and gadolinium curve (IAUGC90^bn) and measured by median pixel values of the whole prostate.
  • Determine the test-retest performance, assessed by the RC of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) metrics D(t) and measured by median pixel values of the whole prostate.

Secondary

  • Determine the test-retest performance, assessed by RC of K^trans, IAUGC90^bn, and D(t), and measured by median pixel values of the dominant prostate tumor.
  • Determine the effect of reader on the RC of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and DWI metrics for whole prostate and tumor nodule target lesion.
  • Determine whether T1-dependent or T1-independent methods for gadolinium quantification in DCE-MRI studies produce differing values for the RC for K^trans and IAUGC90^bn.
  • Explore the correlation between DCE-MRI and DWI metrics for both whole prostate and dominant tumor nodule as target lesions. (Exploratory)
  • Determine whether the "coffee break" approach toward test-retest analysis of quantitative DWI provides a reasonable estimate of the RC of D(t)of the whole prostate, using as the gold standard the RC of D(t) obtained between the two separate MRI visits. (Exploratory)

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to MRI vendor used (Siemens vs GE vs Philips).

Patients receive gadolinium-based contrast IV and undergo DCE-MRI* and DWI 2 imaging at 2-14 days apart prior to treatment initiation. A central reader evaluation of the 2 successive scans is then conducted.

NOTE: *At the discretion of the participating sites, the initial MRI visit (MRI SCAN 1) may be supplemented with endorectal-coil imaging per institutional norms.

What is being measured

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

  1. Repeatability assessment of DCE-MRI metrics Ktrans and blood-normalized initial area under the gadolinium curve (IAUGC90bn) and the DWI metric D(t)

    The repeatability coefficient (RC) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) will be estimated for each metric [ ktrans, IAUGC90bn] using the method of Barnhart and Barboriak, 2009

    Measured: 2 to 14 Days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Test-retest performance, assessed by the RC of Ktrans, IAUGC90bn, and D(t), and measured by median pixel values of the prostate tumor

    The repeatability coefficient (RC) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) will be estimated for each metric using the method of Barnhart and Barboriak, 2009

    Measured: 2 to 14 Days

  2. Comparison between T1-dependent or T1-independent methods for gadolinium quantification produce differing values for the RC for Ktrans

    The repeatability coefficient (RC) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) will be estimated for each metric ktrans] and each method [ independent and dependent] using the method of Barnhart and Barboriak, 2009

    Measured: 2 to 14 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing motexafin gadolinium in people with Prostate Cancer, run by American College of Radiology Imaging Network 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?

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 18 Oct 2021. 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?

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?

Repeatability assessment of DCE-MRI metrics Ktrans and blood-normalized initial area under the gadolinium curve (IAUGC90bn) and the DWI metric D(t) (time frame: 2 to 14 Days). 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 18 Oct 2021.
