Trial summary

The main purpose of this study is to discover how 18F-cholineFCH distributes in the body, and see if it can distinguish active histiocytes (tumor) from inflammatory (non- tumor) cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study to Determine Uptake and Biodistribution of 18F-fluorocholine in Histiocytic Disorders by PET Imaging and Biopsy Measurement

The main purpose of this study is to discover how 18F-cholineFCH distributes in the body, and see if it can distinguish active histiocytes (tumor) from inflammatory (non- tumor) cells. This tracer has the potential to give the investigators' team more information when trying to identify the tumor cells that are most important to collect with biopsy. In addition, the study will measure levels of 18F-cholineFCH in the biopsy tissue.

Being tested
F-choline PET Scan, FDG-PET, biopsy
Keywords
18F-fluorocholine, Pet imaging, Biopsy, 15-268
Medical subject headings

Study groups in NCT02608619
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PET ImagingThis study will enroll patients who have a clinical diagnosis of a systemic histiocytic disorder, and who are scheduled to undergo confirmatory biopsies of the systemic lesions, that were identified by standard imaging modalities.
Receives: Radiation: F-choline PET Scan; Device: FDG-PET; Procedure: biopsy

What is being measured

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

  1. percentage of patients who successfully undergo paired biopsies

    The overall histiocyte content will be described in each patient for each paired biopsy: there will be one biopsy that has high 18F-FCH F-choline uptake and one biopsy that has low 18F-FCH F-choline uptake.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Erdheim-Chester Disease and Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center 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 4 inclusion and 2 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 29 Aug 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.

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?

percentage of patients who successfully undergo paired biopsies (time frame: 1 year). 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 29 Aug 2018.
