Trial summary

The imaging of cerebral oxygenation is an extremely important tool in understanding the pathophysiology of the tumor and for adaptation of therapies according to hypoxia. Currently, imaging of cerebral oxygenation is mainly performed by the use of Positron Emission Tomography (PET). Read more about this study

About this study

The imaging of cerebral oxygenation is an extremely important tool in understanding the pathophysiology of the tumor and for adaptation of therapies according to hypoxia. Currently, imaging of cerebral oxygenation is mainly performed by the use of Positron Emission Tomography (PET). Thus, the investigators have been able to show that the FMISO radiotracer can reveal tumor hypoxia (HypOnco study, promotor: Caen University Hospital, main investigator: J.S. Guillamo). After injection of the radiotracer, increased uptake is observed in the regions for which the tissue oxygen pressure is less than 10 mmHg (the healthy brain with a tissue oxygen pressure (ptO2) ≈ 40mmHg).

Although PET is a reference methodology, it is not widely practiced mainly because of radioactive sources. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) would bypass the previously mentioned PET limitations. The investigators have recently shown that a measure of local oxygen saturation could be obtained by MRI.

This methodology has also been implemented at a clinical scale on lower field MRI magnets, but its formal validation in a clinical situation remains to be demonstrated with respect to FMISO.

The major advantage of this methodology is that MRI is already performed in routine practice for patients. Measuring tissue oxygenation with MRI (SatO2-MRI) would not add additional examination for the patient. In addition, MRI is a non-ionizing methodology with a very good spatial resolution compared to PET, this should help to better understand intratumoral heterogeneity. Similarly, in preclinical studies, the investigators have shown in a context of mild hypoxia that SatO2-MRI may be more sensitive than PET.

The investigators propose a study to compare in patients with glial tumors, images obtained by 3 Tesla MRI of SatO2-MRI to the hypoxia maps obtained by FMISO PET. These imaging studies will be confronted with studies carried out in immunohistochemistry on biopsies / resection allowing to reveal and to quantify by image analysis the expression of the factors induced by hypoxia (HIF1, HIF2).

This study should include 20 patients with glioma (15 high-grade patients and 5 low-grade patients) in pre-surgery. The aim is to show that SatO2-MRI is a relevant methodology (in terms of sensitivity, specificity) for assessing intratumoral oxygenation in a context of brain tumors. This fits perfectly into an era of personalized medicine where functional imaging finds its meaning.

What is being measured

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

  1. MRI tissue oxygenation map (SatO2-MRI) validation

    Validation of SatO2-MRI as a reliable imaging method to detect hypoxic regions, in comparison with FMISO PET. This will mainly be done by measuring spatial correlation of hypoxic regions obtained by the two imaging modalities.

    Measured: 7 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comparison with pathologic studies

    To correlate imaging biomarkers with more conventional approaches on tissue slices (immunohistochemistry HIF1 / HIF2 / CD34)

    Measured: 7 to 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MRI Oxygen Saturation Map in people with Glioma, 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 6 inclusion and 1 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 23 Oct 2018. 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.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

MRI tissue oxygenation map (SatO2-MRI) validation (time frame: 7 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 23 Oct 2018.
