About this study

Official title: A Multi-Site Prospective, Single-Arm, Observational Study On The Accuracy Of Whole Body Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Wb-Mri) Screening To Predict Clinically Significant Diagnoses In General Population Subjects Interested In Proactive And Advanced General Preventive Healthcare.

This is a prospective, single-arm, observational study capturing data from whole-body magnetic resonance imagining (WB-MRI) from up to 100,000 male and female subjects 18 years of age or older recruited at multiple clinical sites within the United States. Study subjects must meet a set of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Potential subjects arriving at the study sites will be evaluated for enrollment. It is the Principal Investigator's (PI) responsibility to enroll only subjects who satisfy the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Recruitment can occur by subject presentation at the sites for elective standard screening, word-of-mouth, flyers, healthcare professional (HCP) referrals, advertisement online, or any other means, subject to approval by the associated institutional review board (IRB) or ethics committee (EC) when applicable.

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Endpoint and 5-point scale of CSD (Clinically Significant Disease) of CSD diagnosed post-baseline in general population subjects.

    Clinically significant disease represents the primary output of WB-MRI image analysis, and thus, the primary endpoint for this study. This outcome will be expressed as a 5-point scale similar to the standard Likert scale used in clinical studies. Higher the number higher the risk of clinically significant finding.

    Measured: Up to 10 Years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Secondary Endpoint of ONCO-RADS Score (Oncological relevant findings reporting and data system) diagnosed in the follow-up period, including but not limited to, types of cancers, aneurysms, metabolic disorders, neurologic disorders, renal function, etc

    Additionally, for the purposes of more specifically distinguishing CSD's of oncological-concern, following the ONCO-RADS7 guidelines for cancer screening utilizing WB-MRI, an additional ONCO-RADS score tag ("ONCO") will be attached to each CSD to reflect oncologic-specific risk according to the screening WB-MRI criteria. Higher the number worse the risk of having Cancer.

    Measured: Up to 10 Years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cancer and Metabolic Disease, run by Hercules at 1 site in United States.

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 7 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 30 Apr 2025. 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 United States. 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?

Contact Kayla MacLeod, BS ((301) 450-4451, kayla.macleod@herculesstudy.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Endpoint and 5-point scale of CSD (Clinically Significant Disease) of CSD diagnosed post-baseline in general population subjects. (time frame: Up to 10 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 30 Apr 2025.
