About this study

Official title: Evaluation of CT Perfusion Parameters as a Potential Biomarker for Treatment Response in Pancreatic Cancer

This pilot clinical trial studies how well computed tomography (CT) perfusion images work in assessing treatment response in patients with pancreatic cancer. Analyzing specific measurements on the CT perfusion images may help doctors better determine how a tumor responds to chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy and may help guide treatment for patients with pancreatic cancer.

Read the detailed description

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo CT perfusion sequence during the first 40 seconds of the baseline standard of care CT scan and during follow-up CT scans at 2 and possibly 4 months after chemotherapy, at 4-6 weeks after radiation therapy, or prior to definitive surgery.

After completion of the study, patients are followed up periodically for 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between pre-treatment computed tomography (CT) tumor perfusion parameters and percentage of patients who achieve curative (R0) surgical resection after neoadjuvant chemotherapy

    Assessed using logistic regression. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis will be used to examine the sensitivity and specificity of different thresholds for each parameter.

    Measured: Up to 4 years

  2. Correlation between pre-treatment CT tumor perfusion parameters and tumor response after treatment

    Will be defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Assessed using logistic regression. ROC curve analysis will be used to examine the sensitivity and specificity of different thresholds for each parameter. If multiple perfusion parameters are found to be predictive of response, a multivariate logistic regression model will be constructed with these variables. ROC analysis will also be used to summary the predictive performance of the multivariate model.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  3. Correlation of pre-treatment CT tumor perfusion parameters with overall survival

    Assessed using Cox regression models. Multivariate Cox models will be constructed if multiple parameters are found to be predictive of survival.

    Measured: At 1 year

  4. Correlation of pre-treatment CT tumor perfusion parameters with overall survival

    Assessed using Cox regression models. Multivariate Cox models will be constructed if multiple parameters are found to be predictive of survival.

    Measured: At 2 years

  5. Correlation of pre-treatment CT tumor perfusion parameters with progression free survival

    Assessed using Cox regression models. Multivariate Cox models will be constructed if multiple parameters are found to be predictive of survival.

    Measured: At 1 year

  6. Correlation of pre-treatment CT tumor perfusion parameters with progression free survival

    Assessed using Cox regression models. Multivariate Cox models will be constructed if multiple parameters are found to be predictive of survival.

    Measured: At 2 years

  7. Change in computed tomography (CT) tumor perfusion parameters (time to peak concentration)

    The change in each CT tumor perfusion parameter between the pre-treatment scan and the post-treatment scan where response is assessed will be calculated. These changes will be compared between the responders and non-responders using the t-test or Mann-Whitney test.

    Measured: Baseline to post-treatment (up to approximately one year)

  8. Change in CT tumor perfusion parameter (blood flow)

    The change in each CT tumor perfusion parameter between the pre-treatment scan and the post-treatment scan where response is assessed will be calculated. These changes will be compared between the responders and non-responders using the t-test or Mann-Whitney test.

    Measured: Baseline to post-treatment (up to approximately one year)

  9. Change in CT tumor perfusion parameter (blood volume)

    The change in each CT tumor perfusion parameter between the pre-treatment scan and the post-treatment scan where response is assessed will be calculated. These changes will be compared between the responders and non-responders using the t-test or Mann-Whitney test.

    Measured: Baseline to post-treatment (up to approximately one year)

  10. Change in CT tumor perfusion parameter (Ktrans)

    The change in each CT tumor perfusion parameter between the pre-treatment scan and the post-treatment scan where response is assessed will be calculated. These changes will be compared between the responders and non-responders using the t-test or Mann-Whitney test.

    Measured: Baseline to post-treatment (up to approximately one year)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Computed Tomography Perfusion Imaging in people with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma, run by University of Washington 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 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jul 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 was stopped early (reason given: Termination due to slow accrual). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Correlation between pre-treatment computed tomography (CT) tumor perfusion parameters and percentage of patients who achieve curative (R0) surgical resection after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (time frame: Up to 4 years). The study lists 10 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Jul 2022.
