Trial summary

Girentuximab is an antibody against Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX), an antigen that is expressed on the cell surface of 95% of clear cell RCC (ccRCC). Zr-89-girentuximab PET/CT (Positron Emission Tomography) may be a valuable imaging technique in the diagnosis of patients with RCC. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Zirconium-89-girentuximab PET/CT Imaging in Patients Suspected of Primary or Relapse Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma: The Impact on Clinical Decision Making.

Girentuximab is an antibody against Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX), an antigen that is expressed on the cell surface of 95% of clear cell RCC (ccRCC). Zr-89-girentuximab PET/CT (Positron Emission Tomography) may be a valuable imaging technique in the diagnosis of patients with RCC. The aim of the present study is to show the impact of the Zr-89-girentuximab PET/CT on the clinical management of ccRCC patients.

Read the detailed description

More advanced imaging methods are needed to reliably distinguish benign small renal masses (SRM) from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to prevent invasive biopsies or unnecessary surgery. Similarly, improved imaging methods are needed for unambiguous detection of lesions suspect for metastatic and relapse RCC during follow-up. Girentuximab is an antibody against Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX), an antigen that is expressed on the cell surface of 95% of clear cell RCC (ccRCC). Zr-89-girentuximab PET/CT may be a valuable imaging technique in the diagnosis of patients with RCC. The aim of the present study is to show the impact of the Zr-89-girentuximab PET/CT on the clinical management of ccRCC patients. Thirty patients will be included in whom conventional diagnostics are inconclusive. During a multidisciplinary team (MDT) the hypothetical next step in the clinical process will be noted (e.g. further diagnostics, treatment or active surveillance). Subsequently, in these patients a Zirconium-89-girentuximab PET/CT will be performed. Patients will receive a single intravenous dose of 5 mg Zirconium-89-girentuximab (37 MBq). A PET/CT scan will be acquired 4 or 5 days after injection. The Zirconium-89-girentuximab PET/CT will be read by a clinician with extensive experience in radiolabeled girentuximab imaging. The results of the PET/CT will be discussed during the MDT and will be used to decide what the next step in the clinical process will be. This step will be compared with the hypothetical next step from the MDT before the scan.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Zirconium-89 girentuximab PET/CTDrug

    Also called girentuximab

    Thirty patients (suspected of ccRCC) will be included in whom conventional diagnostics are inconclusive. During a multidisciplinary team (MDT) the hypothetical next step in the clinical process will be noted. Subsequently, in these patients a Zirconium-89-girentuximab PET/CT will be performed 4-5 days after single intravenous injection of 5 mg Zirconium-89-girentuximab (37 MBq). The results of the PET/CT will be discussed during the MDT and will be used to decide what the next step in the clinical process will be. This step will be compared with the hypothetical next step from the MDT before the scan. Whether or not the PET/CT scan had impact on clinical decision making will be assessed for each individual patient.

What is being measured

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

  1. Impact on clinical decision making

    Impact on clinical decision making, defined as present or absent:

    • Absent: e.g. no change in treatment or follow-up
    • Present: e.g. change in follow-up schedule, change in surgical technique, change from surgery to active surveillance, or change from surgery to systemic treatment.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Zirconium-89 girentuximab PET/CT in people with Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 7 inclusion and 5 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 19 Jun 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 Netherlands. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Impact on clinical decision making (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 19 Jun 2017.
