About this study

Official title: 18F-FET (O-(2-[18F]Fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine) PET in Differentiating Tumour Progression From Pseudoprogression in High Grade Gliomas

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the performance characteristics of O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (FET) PET in differentiating pseudoprogression from tumour progression in patients with equivocal conventional imaging and determine the sensitivity and specificity of [18F]FET-PET in delineating disease. The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

  • whether 18F-FET-PET will demonstrate high diagnostic accuracy to detect true tumour progression
  • whether we can optimise the threshold cut-offs for TBRmax and other relevant parameters in discriminating pseudoprogression and disease progression Participants will undergo a limited 18F-FET PET/CT of the brain in SGH.

What participants receive

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

  • FET PETDiagnostic test

    There is only one study visit during which study subjects will undergo a 18F-FET PET/CT in SGH. Following that, they will be followed up as per their routine clinical care. Data collection timepoints will be at 30 days, 4 months, 8 months and 1 year.

Study groups in NCT06172595
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
FET PETExperimentalUpon recruitment, a single study visit will be scheduled where subjects undergo a limited 18F-FET PET/CT of the brain in SGH. After the study visit, from time of recruitment, they will continue their regular clinic visits as clinically indicated, where they will be monitored for at least a year for stability or deterioration. If clinically indicated, they may undergo conventional MRI, alternative MRI imaging and/or histopathological correlation in their respective primary institutions. During these follow-up visits, any adverse effects possibly attributed to the 18F-FET PET/CT can also be flagged up. Any alternative MRI imaging performed (as part of clinical practice in the respective primary institutions) within 4 weeks of the 18F-FET PET/CT study will also be included in the comparative analysis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing FET PET in people with Glioma, Malignant, run by Singapore General Hospital at 2 sites in Singapore.

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 5 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 3 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Singapore. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

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?

Performance characteristics of FET PET in differentiating pseudoprogression from tumour progression in patients with equivocal conventional imaging (time frame: 1 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 3 Dec 2024.
