About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of 99m Tc Pertechnetate Produced in High Energy Cyclotron (CYCLOTEC) in Patients With Thyroid Scan Indication

Prospective, open label single site study to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of Tc-99m pertechnetate produced by high energy cyclotron at CHUS.

Read the detailed description

The proposed clinical trial will be a prospective, case-controlled Phase I, open label, single site study. The first 10 consecutively enrolled patients will receive CYCLOTEC standard procedure thyroid imagery and an additional whole-body scans, and 20 subsequent case-matched controls, will receive GPERT and will also have additionnal whole body scan.

CyclotecThe first 10 consecutively enrolled patients will have thyroid and whole body scan with CycloTec
generator produced Tc99m-pertechnetate20 subsequent case-matched controls will have thyroid and whole body scan with conventional Tc99m-pertechnetate

What is being measured

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

  1. Biodistribution of Tc99m produced by high-energy cyclotron (CycloTec)

    Equivalence of biodistribution of Tc99m produced by high-energy cyclotron (CycloTec) will be compared to the biodistribution of the conventional Tc99m pertechnetated (Case match: 1 CycloTec patient vs. 2 conventional Tc99m-pertechnetate patients)

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Autoimmune Thyroid Disease and Congenital Hypothyroidism, run by Centre de recherche du Centre hospitalier universitaire de Sherbrooke at 1 site in Canada.

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 8 inclusion and 9 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 4 Dec 2017. 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 Canada. 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?

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?

Biodistribution of Tc99m produced by high-energy cyclotron (CycloTec) (time frame: 6 months). 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 4 Dec 2017.
