About this study

To use 18F-DCFPyL imaging agent and PET/CT to detect none prostate cancer solid malignancies and schwannoma tumors.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this protocol is to extend our existing patient base from those with prostate cancer to those with any solid malignancy - as well as patients with schwannoma, a non-malignant solid tumor that also over-expresses GCP II. Using our first generation imaging agent, [18F]DCFBC, we have shown that we could detect GCP II in tissue specimens of patients with a variety of cancers, and vestibular schwannoma. We have also shown that GCP II may not only be present in the neovasculature of solid (non-prostate) tumors, but also reside within the tumor epithelium itself. We have shown that to be the case for melanoma, in particular. Our goal is to leverage the broad utility of our GCP II targeted imaging agents for managing other cancers. In addition to schwannoma, the cancers we intend to target include but will not be restricted to: head and neck cancer, salivary gland tumors, renal cell carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, neuroendocrine cancer, glioblastoma, melanoma, pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, soft tissue sarcoma, breast cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, lymphoma and multiple myeloma.

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine feasibility of using 18F-DCFPyL to detect cancer

    The primary objective of this project is to test the feasibility of 18F-DCFPyL to detect cancer. The visual assessment of suspected tumor will be considered positive if there is sustained radiotracer activity over expected soft tissue or blood pool physiologic activity levels and recorded as mild (above blood pool), moderate (above blood pool, but less than liver), or intense (at or above the liver). Feasibility will be determined based on number of positively recognized regions of interest.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 18F-DCFPyL Injection in people with Schwannomas and Malignant Tumors, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins 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 4 inclusion and 2 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 2023. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Determine feasibility of using 18F-DCFPyL to detect cancer (time frame: 24 months). 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 2023.
