  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • • 18 years of age or older.
  • Histologically proven malignancy of primary tumor. Histologic diagnosis may be established from needle biopsy, cytology, or a surgical biopsy or resection. If the nature of the lesion has been previously through biopsy, the lesion to be treated does not require further documentation.
  • Metastatic disease documented either by imaging techniques (plain radiographs, radionuclide bone scans, computed tomography scans and magnetic resonance imaging) or by histology. Other imaging techniques may be acceptable with the approval of the principal investigator.
  • ≤ 3 treatable painful bone metastases.
  • "Worst Pain Score" of > 3 on a scale of 10 during a 24-hour period (as scored on the Brief Pain Inventory [BPI] question #3: 0 = no pain; 10 = worst possible pain) despite level II analgesic medications.
  • Prothrombin time (PT) >50%, Thrombocytes >50x109/L.

  • Estimated life expectancy of 3 months or greater, as estimated by the responsible clinician.
  • Targeted tumor clearly visible in B-mode ultrasonography, and accessible to US-HIFU treatment, based on imaging data.
  • Agreement from the anaesthetist for a IV conscious sedation
  • Signed study-specific informed consent prior to inclusion.
  • Negative pregnancy test before inclusion for women of childbearing and or efficient method of contraception.
  • Patient with social security coverage.

Who cannot join

  • • Pregnant or lactating women.
  • Radiation therapy to the targeted sites within 30 days prior to enrollment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing HIFU in people with Bone Metastasis, run by Theraclion at 1 site in France.

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 12 inclusion and 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Apr 2014. 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 France. 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?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

To assess safety including adverse and serious adverse events, local and systemic tolerance of HIFU in patients with bone metastasis acoording to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse events (CTCAE version 4.3) (time frame: up to 3 months after HIFU session). 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 16 Apr 2014.
