About this study

Official title: Study of the Kinetics, Dosimetry and Safety of [18F]F-AraG, a Positron Emission Tomography Tracer for Imaging the Activation of the Immune System in Healthy Humans

The goal of this study is to visualize biodistribution of a PET tracer called [18F]F-AraG through time in healthy human volunteers.

Read the detailed description

A positron emission tomography (PET) imaging tracer will be intravenously injected into healthy human volunteers who provide informed consent. Following injection of this tracer each volunteer will have four whole-body PET scans inside a PET scanner to obtain images of tracer biodistribution at four different time points. This will allow studying the kinetics of the tracer as well analysis of tracer dosimetry. Safety of the tracer will also be analyzed in each volunteer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visualize biodistribution of the PET tracer [18F]F-AraG

    Whole-body [18F]F-AraG PET scans will be performed at 4 different time points following intravenous injection of the PET tracer. Four whole-body images will be obtained that will reveal biodistribution of [18F]F-AraG at 4 different consecutive time points after intravenous injection.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Analyze human dosimetry of [18F]F-AraG

    Time-Activity curves will be graphed by measuring activity in various organs at the 4 time points after tracer injection. From these time activity curves absorbed radiation will be calculated.

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Assess acute safety of intravenously injected trace dose of [18F]F-AraG

    Blood and urine samples may be collected at baseline and at 1 and 8 days after injection of [18F]F-AraG to perform metabolic panel, CBC and urine analysis. Vital signs and EKG will be measured and recorded at baseline, within 3 hours after tracer injection and at 1 and 8 days after tracer injection.

    Measured: 8 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing [18F]F-AraG in people with Cancer, run by CellSight Technologies, Inc. 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?

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2018. 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.

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?

Visualize biodistribution of the PET tracer [18F]F-AraG (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02323893, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 May 2018.
