Official title: Assessment of Unstable Carotid Plaque Using PET and MR Imaging in Patient Referred to Endarterectomy: The CAROTEP Study

This study will assess unstable plaque imaging features by using high resolution MR imaging and Sodium Fluoride F-18 PET. This is a comparative study between symptomatic and asymptomatic patient referred to carotid endateriectomy, with reference to pathologic analysis of plaque components

Being tested
Sodium fluoride F-18 PET imaging
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Sodium fluoride F-18 PET imagingDrug

    prior to surgical endarterectomy each patient will undergo sodium fluoride F-18 PET imaging

What is being measured

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

  1. carotid F18-NaF uptake

    do the symptomatic patients have a higher F18-NaF uptake compared to asymptomatic patients? at pre-operative examination

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. comparaison of F18-NaF PET and Carotid MRI

    comparaison between F18-NaF uptake and MR features of plaque instability at pre-operative examination

    Measured: baseline

  2. F18-NaF PET uptake

    comparaison between F18-NaF uptake at pre-operative imaging

    Measured: baseline

  3. histology

    comparaison between histology at post-operative histologic analysis

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sodium fluoride F-18 PET imaging in people with Carotid Artery Stenosis, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jan 2020. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Lucie Cameliere, MD (+33231065161, cameliere-l@chu-caen.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

carotid F18-NaF uptake (time frame: baseline). 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 13 Jan 2020.
