Trial summary

CCR2 is a significant prognostic biomarker in head and neck cancer. Currently there is no clinical biomarker to study CCR2, its prognostic significance or to select patients for CCR2-targeted therapy and to monitor response to such therapy. Read more about this study

About this study

CCR2 is a significant prognostic biomarker in head and neck cancer. Currently there is no clinical biomarker to study CCR2, its prognostic significance or to select patients for CCR2-targeted therapy and to monitor response to such therapy. The investigators have developed a CCR2 specific PET radiotracer based on the peptide, ECL1i (d(LGTFLKC)) and radiolabeled with 64Cu (64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i). The investigators have found that 64Cu-DOTA-ELC1i specific binding has been demonstrated in human head and neck cancer tissue.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i-PET/CTExperimental-64CU-DOTA-ECL1i-PET/CT imaging consisting of a dynamic scan centered at the level of the known tumor followed by a limited body scan of the head/neck and upper chest will be performed
Receives: Drug: 64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic Quality of 64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i-PET/CT Images as Measured by Assessment of Overall Image Quality: 4 Point Scale

    -Overall image quality will be graded on a 4 point scale with 1 being the worse and poor quality, not acceptable for diagnostic interpretation and 4 being good image quality, similar to routine clinical studies

    Measured: At the time of scan (Day 1)

  2. Diagnostic Quality of 64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i-PET/CT Images as Measured by Presence or Absence of Abnormal 64Cu-DOT-ECL1i Uptake in Pathologically Proven Site of Disease

    Measured: At the time of scan (Day 1)

  3. CCR2 Detection Rate of 64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i-PET/CT as Measured by IHC Staining

    -Intensity of CCR2 signal in IHC will be assessed by the study pathologist and categorized into 4 categories (0=absent/faint, 1=weak, 2=moderate, 3=strong). Any cells that stained positively with CCR2 will be assessed and the final score will be based on an overall assessment of CCR2 IHC on all of these cells.

    Measured: At the time of standard of care surgery (estimated to be within 2 weeks of imaging)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i in people with Head and Neck Cancer, run by Washington University School of Medicine 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 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Nov 2024. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Feb 2024). 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?

Diagnostic Quality of 64Cu-DOTA-ECL1i-PET/CT Images as Measured by Assessment of Overall Image Quality: 4 Point Scale (time frame: At the time of scan (Day 1)). 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 19 Nov 2024.
