About this study

Official title: Comparing the Diagnostic Role of 18F-FDG PET/MRI and of 18F-FDG PET/CT Among Patients With Gastric Cancer:A Randomized Controlled Trial

The results of PET/MRI and PET/CT in each recruited gastric cancer patients will be compared.

Read the detailed description

A prospective comparison of PET/MRI and PET/CT for gastric cancer will be performed,to evaluate the value of PET/MRI in predicting the preoperative staging and resectability of gastric cancer and investigate the role of PET/MRI in gastric cancer diagnosis.The evaluation parameters are the diagnostic accuracy of gastric cancer staging( including the overall accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity) and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC).

Being tested
PET/MRI, PET/CT
Keywords
gastric cancer, Simultaneous PET/MRI, PET/CT
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • PET/MRIDevice

    Also called Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging

    The recruited patients will receive a PET/MRI examination to evaluation the stage and resectability of the cancer.

  • PET/CTDevice

    Also called Positron emission tomography-computed tomography

    At the next day of PET/MRI examination,A PET/CT examination will be performed.

Study groups in NCT03015298
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Gastric cancerEach patient will perform a PET/MRI examination,and in the next day,a PET/CT.All the examinations are performed before the operation.
Receives: Device: PET/MRI; Device: PET/CT

What is being measured

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

  1. The results of the PET/MRI and PET/CT examination

    Two experienced radiologists independently assess the TNM staging of gastric cancer using preoperative PET/MRI and PET/CT images

    Measured: 3 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Histopathological diagnosis

    including definitely T stage in Tx, number of regional lymph node metastasis,result of histologic subtypes of carcinoma,result of other cytological examination.

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Results of CT/Endoscopic ultrasound(EUS) image

    Experienced radiologists assess definitely T stage in Tx, number of regional lymph node metastasis,with or without distant metastasis.

    Measured: 3 days

  3. Numerical values of Standard uptake value(SUV)

    Standard uptake value(SUV) is defined as the ratio of the image derived radioactivity concentration and the whole body concentration of the injected radioactivity.

    Measured: 3 days

  4. Apparent Diffusion Coefficient(ADC)

    Apparent Diffusion Coefficient(ADC) will be measured using a curved Placement of region of interest(ROI) to include the high signal and be read out on ADC maps by Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI or DW-MRI) analysis software.

    Measured: 3 days

  5. The expression level of Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase erbB-2(HER2)

    Acquire from pathology results

    Measured: 5 days

  6. The expression level of Receptors for vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGFR)

    Acquire from pathology results

    Measured: 5 days

  7. Follow-up data

    results of conventional imaging examination and tumor biomarkers examination.

    Measured: at lest 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric Cancer Stage, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lin Chen, Master (86-13801290395, chenlinbj@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The results of the PET/MRI and PET/CT examination (time frame: 3 days). 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 10 Jan 2017.
