About this study

Official title: PET/MRI Study on the Effects of Psychosocial on Fat and Muscle Metabolism for Malignant Tumor Patient After Comprehensive Treatment.

False positives for Brown Fat \& Muscle(F\&M) always affect the evaluation of metabolic disease treatment. Recently, using PET/CT,international journals such as Journal of Nuclear Medicine reported that the amount of active brown fat was correlated with renal creatinine clearance and subject to regulation by atrial natriuretic peptide in addition to association of season and temperature. At present,studies based on PET/CT have shown that elimination of the above factors, brown fat(even muscle) will still appear false positive metabolism in tumor patients. In view of the basis of Positron emission computed tomography/Magnetic resonance (PET/MRI) brain function research,our team speculate that it may be related to psychological or cortex metabolism. And there is a lack of studies on the correlation between the psychosocial,cortex structure and metabolism. Therefore, it suggests that,combination of structure and metabolism,PET/MRI will play a role in studying the effects of psychological on F\&M false-positive metabolism in malignant patients. In this project, the investigators intend to observe the changes of F\&M metabolism with psychological and cortex metabolism after comprehensive treatment in malignant patient by combining PET/MRI. The relationship between F\&M metabolism and psychological will be deeply analyzed to provide scientific basis for the development of the differential diagnosis and assessment.

What participants receive

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

  • Comprehensive treatment of tumorOther

    According to the pathologic types and TNM stage of tumor,specialists chose one or more of the interventions in surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change metabolism of glucose of M&F

    Glucose metabolic scores will be assessed with visual scale

    Measured: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)

  2. Change of the glucose metabolism area of M&F

    Five different anatomical locations (subphrenic, paravertebral, mediastinal, cervical, supraclavicular) will be assessed with visual.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)

  3. Change of activated M&F volume

    Activated M\&F volume before and after comprehensive treatment were evaluated by post-processing software

    Measured: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)

  4. Change of M&F SUVmax and SUVmean

    SUVmax and SUVmean scores will be measured by post-processing software.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)

  5. Change of anxiety symptoms

    Anxiety symptoms scores will be assessed with Hamilton Anxiety Scale.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)

  6. Change of sleep

    Sleep scores will be assessed with Pittsburgh sleep quality index one month before scanning

    Measured: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)

  7. Change of metabolism of glucose in the M&F

    Accumulation of 18F-FDG will be analyzed by treatment-related, psychology-related and intervention-related Positron emission tomography/ Magnetic resonance

    Measured: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Brown Fat and Muscle Metabolic and Differential Diagnosis, run by Tang-Du Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 6 Apr 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 China. 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?

Contact Li Yunbo, MD (15991771598, realmoco@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change metabolism of glucose of M&F (time frame: Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)). The study lists 7 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 6 Apr 2020.
