About this study

Gynecological cancers involve several tumors of the female reproductive system. The five most common gynecological tumors are those of the uterine cervix, endometrium, ovary, vagina and vulva. Furthermore, although rarer, there is a further gynecological tumor, which is generated from the gestational trophoblast tissue.These pathologies represent an important burden for society since there are over nine hundred thousand cases in Europe.

Ultrasound examination is the investigation commonly used to monitor high-risk women.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the most accurate imaging technique for presurgical staging of gynecological tumors. Computed tomography (CT), on the other hand, is not usually used for diagnosis, but is considered very useful for investigating possible distant metastases.Finally, integrated positron emission tomography (PET)/CT and PET/MRI methods are innovative molecular imaging techniques and represent a continually expanding field of research in the oncology setting, including gynecological malignancies.

The present study is of considerable clinical relevance as at our Institute it is possible to have a significant number of patients suffering from gynecological neoplastic pathologies that are studied using PET, thus allowing the identification and validation of innovative imaging biomarkers, with the use of both traditional imaging parameters and radiomic features.

Being tested
the diagnostic and prognostic value of PET/MRI and PET/CT with 18F-FDG in patients presenting with gynecological tumors

What participants receive

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

  • the diagnostic and prognostic value of PET/MRI and PET/CT with 18F-FDG in patients presenting with gynecological tumorsDiagnostic test

    For the evaluation of patients affected by endometrial cancer, the correlations between semi-quantitative PET parameters (SUVmax, SUVmean, MTV and TLG calculated at different SUVmax thresholds) and histological data, such as for example myometrial invasion, will be investigated. lymph node invasion, tumor grade and type, risk level, probability of mutation of the p53 gene, etc.

    In addition to traditional imaging parameters we will also investigate the usefulness of radiomic features, i.e. quantitative data extracted from PET images (PET/CT or PET/MRI), in predicting and explaining histological data

What is being measured

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

  1. PET/MRI and PET/CT with 18F-FDG in patients with gynecological tumors.

    Integrated positron emission tomography (PET)/CT and PET/MRI methods are innovative molecular imaging techniques are able to provide information in predicting and explaining histological data in gynecological tumors.

    Measured: 3 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gynecological Tumors, run by IRCCS San Raffaele at 1 site in Italy.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Mar 2024. 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 Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Arturo Chiti (0226432716, chiti.arturo@hsr.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PET/MRI and PET/CT with 18F-FDG in patients with gynecological tumors. (time frame: 3 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 6 Mar 2024.
