About this study

Official title: Is Mediastinal Blood Pool SUV Ratio Valid in Identification of Malignancy in Comparison to Liver SUV Ratio?

-Validity of blood pool SUV ratio in identification of malignancy in case of diseased liver.

Read the detailed description

PET/CT is the functional imaging tool that can measure increased glucose metabolism in cancer tissues by using flourine 18 FDG which is FDA approved and used routinely in identification of malignant lesions , staging and restaging of many malignancy like lymphoma, breast cancer, lung cancer and cancer colon.

In clinical routine, SUV is often used to determine the glucose metabolism in tumours by 18F-FDG PET/CT. And can be further normalised to SUVs in reference regions resulting in a SUV ratio (SUV ratio).in routine work SUV of the lesion is normalised to SUV of the liver , but this not used if the liver is diseased like as liver cirrhosis or liver metastases , so SUV ratio of lesion to mediastinal blood pool and SUV ratio of the lesion to liver will be measured in correlation to pathology to assess validity of SUV of mediastinal blood pool.

What is being measured

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

  1. -Validity of blood pool suv ratio in identification of malignancy in case of diseased liver.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Validity of Blood Pool SUV Ratio in Identification of Malignancy in Case of Diseased Liver, run by Assiut University.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2022. 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.

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 Zainab Fathy Mohammed, Resident doctor (01099024404, zainab.fathy.95@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

-Validity of blood pool suv ratio in identification of malignancy in case of diseased liver. (time frame: One 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 28 Feb 2022.
