About this study

To determine if 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging is effective at diagnosing somatostatin positive tumors compared to conventional imaging [including CT, MRI, 111 In-pentetreotide Scans, 18F-FDG PET/CT, as available]

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the current study will be to evaluate the usefulness of 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE compared to current standard anatomical imaging including CT, MRI, 111 In-pentetreotide Scans, 18F-FDG PET/CT, as available. Specifically, we aim to assess the utility of 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE in primary workup of neuroendocrine tumours, including suspected neuroendocrine tumours that do not have a cross-sectional imaging correlate. An additional aim is to assess the role of 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE in surveillance of completely resected neuroendocrine tumours, which is a point of disagreement amongst current society guidelines . Finally, we will assess utility of 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE for localization of functioning neuroendocrine tumors including insulinoma and gastrinoma.

What participants receive

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

  • 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT imagingDiagnostic test

    Each patient will receive an IV injection 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE. Imaging will be conducted beginning 45-90 minutes after an injection of between 100-250 MBq 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE in patients.

    • After the 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE acquisition is complete, a CT scan will be performed for attenuation correction and localization in the same in line gantry without patient movement between the two scans.
    • The results of the 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT will be compared to any prior imaging and pathologic results.

What is being measured

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

  1. 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging

    To compare 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging at identifying somatostatin positive tumors to conventional imaging [including CT, MRI, 111 In-pentetreotide Scans, 18F-FDG PET/CT, as available]. 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT scans will be evaluated for abnormal accumulation of 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE. Any abnormal uptake will be determined for up to 5 lesions and compared to results of standard of care imaging performed [including CT, MRI, 111 In-pentetreotide (OctreoscanTM) Scan with SPECT/CT, 18F-FDG PET/CT, as available] for presence/absence of each lesion. Comparison to any follow up 68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT Scans will also be performed (up to 5 follow up68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT Scans will be allowed).

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neuroendocrine Tumors (NET), run by Alberta Health services at 1 site in 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 5 inclusion and 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 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 Canada. 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?

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

68Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging (time frame: 5 years). 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 5 Jan 2023.
