Trial summary

The Researchers are trying to determine if 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging will have a similar accuracy as 18FDG PET/CT in diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis and if it will be able to do so without the need for complex patient dietary preparation that is required with 18FDG PET/CT.

About this study

The Researchers are trying to determine if 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging will have a similar accuracy as 18FDG PET/CT in diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis and if it will be able to do so without the need for complex patient dietary preparation that is required with 18FDG PET/CT.

Read the detailed description

Prospective study of 15 consecutive patients with suspected or newly diagnosed cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) who are referred for a clinically indicated 18FDG (and 13NH3) PET/CT scan for cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) will be approached to undergo a 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT scan. Comparison will then be made between the 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and the 18FDG and 13NH3 PET/CT to determine if 68Ga-DOTATATE detects CS.

Being tested
68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT, 18FDG PET/CT scan, 13NH3 PET/CT scan

What participants receive

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

  • 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CTDrug

    5.4 mCi of 68Ga-DOTATATE will be administered by intravenous route.

  • 18FDG PET/CT scanDrug

    This scan will be performed as part of the planned clinical care for the patient. Dose of 18FDG will be administered intravenously in accordance with the institutional policy and accepted norms. CT attenuation scan will also be performed as part of this examination per institutional protocol.

  • 13NH3 PET/CT scanDrug

    This scan will be performed as part of the planned clinical care for the patient. Dose of 13NH3 will be administered intravenously in accordance with the institutional policy and accepted norms. CT attenuation scan will also be performed as part of this examination per institutional protocol.

What is being measured

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

  1. 68Ga-DOTATATE Uptake With Cardia Sarcoidosis (CS)

    The number of subjects with areas of abnormal myocardial increased focal uptake

    Measured: 3 days

  2. 18FDG Uptake With Cardia Sarcoidosis (CS)

    The number of subjects with areas of abnormal myocardial increased focal uptake on 18FDG scan

    Measured: 2 days

  3. 13NH3 PET/CT Uptake With Cardia Sarcoidosis (CS)

    The number of subjects with areas of perfusion deficits on 13NH3 PET/CT scan

    Measured: 2 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Physician Confidence in Study Interpretation

    A Physician survey will be conducted for those cardiac imagers assessing both the DOTATATE and FDG studies to determine their confidence level in interpreting the studies and if one study was easier to interpret than the other

    Measured: 2 days

  2. Subject Satisfaction

    A patient survey will be conducted after each subject has undergone both the DOTATE and the FDG scans. Patient satisfaction will be measured by the question, "Which study did you prefer?" Subject to circle one of the following: 18FDG, 68Ga-DOTATATE or Equal

    Measured: 2 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT, 18FDG PET/CT scan and 13NH3 PET/CT scan in people with Cardiac Sarcoidosis, run by Mayo Clinic 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 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 20 Oct 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 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Oct 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

68Ga-DOTATATE Uptake With Cardia Sarcoidosis (CS) (time frame: 3 days). The study lists 3 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 20 Oct 2020.
