About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Single Centre Exploratory Study of [18F]HX4 PET/CT Imaging to Detect Hypoxia in Patients With Head and Neck and Lung Cancer, Receiving Radiotherapy With Curative Intent

The aim of this study is to investigate the radiotracer [18F]HX4 for non-invasive detection of hypoxia in patients with head and neck, or lung cancer. Each participant will undergo a diagnostic [18F]HX4 PET/CT scan before beginning radiotherapy treatment. Patient follow up data will be collected from routine appointments, and analysed with the hypoxia scan results to assess whether [18F]HX4 PET/CT scanning can predict patient outcome from radiotherapy treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. The number of participants with primary treatment failure, tumour recurrence, disease free survival in the first two years after radiotherapy

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Collection of outcome data to determine number of participants with tumour recurrence or disease free survival 5 years after radiotherapy treatment.

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Comparison of measurements of tumour/nodal disease areas on pre-treatment [18F]FDG PET/CT images with [18F]HX4 PET/CT images

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing [18F]HX4 diagnostic PET/CT scan in people with Head and Neck Cancer and Lung Cancer, run by Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 10 inclusion and 7 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 Jan 2019. 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 Kingdom. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

The number of participants with primary treatment failure, tumour recurrence, disease free survival in the first two years after radiotherapy (time frame: 2 years). 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 11 Jan 2019.
