Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Up to 25 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis:
  • All patients with a clinical suspicion of OO based on presence of typical symptoms of localized nocturnal pain that is relieved by NSAIDs and unrelated to trauma or activity.
  • Typical imaging findings on CT and/or MRI. Plain radiographs and bone scans may be obtained by referring physicians and are helpful for confirming the clinical diagnosis but cannot be substituted for a CT or MRI.
  • Non-contrast enhanced or contrast enhanced CT studies are acceptable.
  • Contrast enhanced MRI studies should be performed.
  • Tissue biopsy is not required

  • Tumor location:
  • Target lesions can be located in any peripheral bone with acoustic accessibility.
  • Target lesions may be intracortical or juxtacortical in location.
  • Target lesions must be reachable within the normal safety margins of HIFU as specified in the instructions for use.
  • Prior therapy:
  • ●Patients with prior unsuccessful surgical resection or RFA are eligible for enrollment.
  • Laboratory :
  • Hemoglobin > 9 g/dL
  • Platelet count ≥75,000/µL (may receive transfusions)
  • Normal PT, PTT and INR < 1.5 x ULN (including patients on prophylactic anticoagulation)
  • Renal function: Age-adjusted normal serum creatinine (table in protocol) OR a creatinine clearance ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for safe contrast administration
  • Adequate pulmonary function: Defined as no dyspnea at rest, and a pulse oximetry >94% on room air if there is clinical indication for determination.

Who cannot join

  • Clinically significant unrelated systemic illness, such as serious infections, hepatic, renal or other organ dysfunction, which in the judgment of the Principal or Associate Investigator would compromise the patient's ability to tolerate the general anesthetic required for the procedure.
  • Implant or prosthesis or scar tissue within the path of the HIFU beam.
  • Target <1 cm from nerve plexus, spinal canal, bladder, bowel
  • Target <1 cm of the growth plate (physis)
  • Lesion in the skull or vertebral body
  • Inability to undergo MRI and/or contraindication for MRI
  • Inability to tolerate stationary position during HIFU
  • Patients currently receiving any investigational agents.

About this study

This study looks to examine the feasibility and efficacy of using MR-HIFU to ablate Osteoid Osteoma lesions in children and young adults.

Read the detailed description

Osteoid Osteoma (OO) is a benign, but painful, bone tumor commonly occurring in children and young adults. Common treatment options are surgical excision or, more recently, CT-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA). RFA is less invasive, but it still requires drilling from the skin through muscle and soft tissue into bone. It also exposes the patient and operator to ionizing radiation.

Magnetic Resonance guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MR-HIFU) provides precise and controlled delivery of focused ultrasound energy inside a lesion using an external applicator, without the need for a scalpel or needle. MR-HIFU has been successfully used to treat painful bone metastases in adult clinical trials and one recent report suggests that it can also be used to treat OO.

MR-HIFU ablation of OO may provide a better alternative to surgical resection or RFA as it is completely non-invasive and does not require ionizing radiation. These two qualities of MR-HIFU are especially beneficial in growing children and young adults. Furthermore, MR-HIFU OO ablation is quick, with expected total procedure time of less than two hours. Such short treatments offer additional safety benefits from reduced anesthesia / sedation requirement compared to surgery and RFA

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
All PatientsExperimentalPatients will undergo a one-time procedure of MR-HIFU ablation of OO under sedation or anesthesia. Patients will be monitored for disease status and adverse events for at least 12 months following procedure.
Receives: Device: MR-HIFU

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and feasibility measured by the number of patients who are able to be treated with MR HIFU and do not experience significant treatment related adverse events.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MR-HIFU in people with Osteoid Osteoma, run by Children's National Research Institute 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 18 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 11 Mar 2022. 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?

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?

Safety and feasibility measured by the number of patients who are able to be treated with MR HIFU and do not experience significant treatment related adverse events. (time frame: 12 months). 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 NCT02349971, 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 11 Mar 2022.
