Trial summary

It is important to evaluate the vaccine-related metabolic changes on FDG PET/CT to avoid confusing results. The investigators aimed to assess the frequency and intensity of regional and systemic metabolic PET/CT changes of patients who received the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine (BNT162b2-Pfizer/BioNTech) and to analyze… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Metabolic Changes in FDG PET/CT Imaging After mRNA-based COVID-19 Vaccination

It is important to evaluate the vaccine-related metabolic changes on FDG PET/CT to avoid confusing results. The investigators aimed to assess the frequency and intensity of regional and systemic metabolic PET/CT changes of patients who received the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine (BNT162b2-Pfizer/BioNTech) and to analyze possible factors affecting these changes.

Being tested
F-18 FDG PET/CT imaging, Pfizer/biontech mRNA vaccine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Vaccine Reaction and Oncology, run by Kocaeli University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 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 8 Mar 2022. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

to assess the frequency of regional and systemic metabolic PET/CT changes of patients who received the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine (time frame: 5 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05270967, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 Mar 2022.
