About this study

Official title: Evaluation of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose Produced by a New Manufacturer, for Safety, Through the Identification of Adverse Events, and Efficacy, Through the Evaluation of Its Ability, When Utilized in Performance of a Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography Scan, to Correctly Distinguish Benign From Malignant Solitary Pulmonary Nodules.

The study objectives are as follows:

  • To determine the safety of trial 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose, produced by a new manufacturer, by surveillance for adverse events in patients having Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography scans in a comprehensive program for indications including, but not limited to, oncology, neurology, cardiac and infectious/inflammatory processes.
  • To determine the efficacy of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose Positron Emission Tomography in differentiating benign from malignant solitary pulmonary nodules and calculate sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy using pathologic confirmation as the gold standard when available, or greater than 6 month follow up stability on Computed Tomography scan when not.

The purpose of performing this clinical trial is to provide local access of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose to the patients of Newfoundland and Labrador. This product has been offered to patients over the last three years by transporting from facilities outside of the province. There have been significant delays in access and in fact, times where 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose has not been available through this process. This has caused delays and limitations of treatments for patients who rely on Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography scans for diagnosis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measuring the safety of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose produced by a new manufacturer by evaluating for any adverse events that occur during their Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography scan appointment.

    Evaluation for any adverse events after administration of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose produced by Eastern Health in the Nuclear and Molecular Medicine Department who is a new manufacturer

    Measured: For the length of time required to perform informed consent, the scan, and follow-up interview for adverse events, approximately 4 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose in the assessment of solitary pulmonary nodules compared to anatomic pathology, or more than 6 month follow-up stability when not available.

    Assess the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography in differentiating benign from malignant solitary pulmonary nodules. This is being done with a view towards eventually applying for an Abbreviated New Drug Submission.

    Measured: Variable, from the time of the scan to appropriate follow-up (either biopsy or follow-up imaging that occurs more than 6 months after the Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography study)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose in people with Solitary Pulmonary Nodule and Oncology, run by Eastern Health, Canada.

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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Andrea Morgan, MNRN (709-777-1133, andrea.morgan@easternhealth.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measuring the safety of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose produced by a new manufacturer by evaluating for any adverse events that occur during their Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography scan appointment. (time frame: For the length of time required to perform informed consent, the scan, and follow-up interview for adverse events, approximately 4 hours). 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 4 Nov 2020.
