What is being measured

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

  1. Safety of 18F MEL050 administration as measured by occurrence of adverse clinical, biochemical or haematological events following 18F MEL050 administration.

    Measured: Up to 28 days following 18F MEL050 administration (+/- 7 days)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of injected 18F MEL050 dose in organs of interest.

    Measured: 10, 30, 60 and 120 minutes post 18F MEL050 administration

  2. Percentage of unmetabolized 18F MEL050 in plasma and urine after radiotracer administration.

    Measured: 60, 120 and 180 minutes post 18F MEL050 administration.

  3. Absorbed organ doses and whole body dose expressed as milliSv/200MBq administered dose.

    Measured: 10, 30, 60 and 120 minutes post 18F MEL050 administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing 18F MEL050 in people with Metastatic Melanoma, run by Cooperative Research Centre for Biomedical Imaging Development at 1 site in Australia.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 15 Jun 2012. 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 Australia. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Safety of 18F MEL050 administration as measured by occurrence of adverse clinical, biochemical or haematological events following 18F MEL050 administration. (time frame: Up to 28 days following 18F MEL050 administration (+/- 7 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 15 Jun 2012.
