Trial summary

In this project, we aim at implementing a te-ASL sequence and to compare it to two reference ASL sequences with a fixed PLD on healthy individuals. On the one hand, the te-ASL sequence will be compared against a 3D pCASL with a PLD of 1800 ms, as the current reference according the Consensus of the ISMRM perfusion… Read more about this study

About this study

In this project, we aim at implementing a te-ASL sequence and to compare it to two reference ASL sequences with a fixed PLD on healthy individuals. On the one hand, the te-ASL sequence will be compared against a 3D pCASL with a PLD of 1800 ms, as the current reference according the Consensus of the ISMRM perfusion study group and the European consortium for ASL in dementia. On the other, as the implemented te-ASL sequence will have a 2D readout, it will also be compared to a 2D pCASL ASL sequence with the same PLD, in order to be able to disentangle differences due to the dynamic PLD scheme from those arising from the different read-out schemes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy, run by Barcelonabeta Brain Research Center, Pasqual Maragall Foundation at 1 site in Spain.

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 31 Mar 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 Spain. 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?

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?

ASL perfusion MRI data (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 31 Mar 2023.
