Non-Contrast Perfusion Using Arterial Spin Labeled MR Imaging for Assessment of Therapy Response in Glioblastoma

A Prospective Study to Evaluate Quantitative Non-Contrast Perfusion Using Arterial Spin Labeled Magnetic Resonance (MR) Imaging for Assessment of Therapy Response in Glioblastoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Oct 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

MRI including ASL will be performed before, during and after the treatment, in a total of 7 MRI sessions until 8 months after the first session. Thereafter, patients will be followed through standard clinical examinations for the next 3 years or until demise, whichever occurs first. Clinically, GBM patients are imaged every 8-weeks, beginning at 10 weeks after the completion of chemoradiation, since morphological (i.e. size) changes are not anticipated earlier. However, our preliminary experience and others have shown functional changes including perfusion and diffusion as early as 3-weeks after the initiation of the treatment . Thus, our T10, T18, T26 and T34 MRI sessions will be performed along with the clinical imaging sessions, while the T3 and T6 MRI sessions will be performed additionally for this proposal. All MR imaging sessions will be scheduled within ±1 or ±2 weeks of the target time period, as indicated in the table. MRI including ASL will be performed before, during and after the treatment, in a total of 7 MRI sessions until 8 months after the first session. The research MR imaging may take approximately an additional 15 minutes per each imaging session. However, the T3, and T6 MR imaging sessions will be performed additionally for the purpose of this study, with each taking approximately one hour. Thereafter, patients will be followed through standard clinical examinations for the next 3 years or until demise, whichever occurs first.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Subjects who have had prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • Subjects may not be receiving any other investigational agents at the time of enrollment.

Other illness

  • Known severe allergic reaction to Gadolinium-based contrast agents.

Lab values

  • Patients with sickle cell disease and patients with other hemolytic anemias (low red blood count in body).

Other

  • Subjects must not be pregnant since pregnancy is a contraindication to administration of gadolinium-based contrast agents.
  • Any contraindication to MRI per Radiology Department's routine protocol, e.g. MRI-incompatible objects, including but not limited to medical devices (e.g. pacemakers, automated implantable cardioverter defibrillators, etc.) and other foreign bodies.
  • Patients with uncontrollable claustrophobia, severe lower back pain, and uncontrollable tremors, to the point that it would render them unable to tolerate an MRI study.

Who the study is looking for

  • Patients with histologically proven GBM
  • Newly diagnosed GBM. Prior surgery is allowed, but should not have started any other treatment such as chemotherapy, radiation treatment, and anti-angiogenic therapy.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0, 1, or 2
  • Women of child-bearing potential must agree to undergo a urine pregnancy screening per standard Radiology departmental protocol, in place to prevent imaging of pregnant patients. A female of child-bearing potential is any woman (regardless of sexual orientation, having undergone a tubal ligation, or remaining celibate by choice) who meets the following criteria: 1) Has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 2) Has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 12 consecutive months).
  • Scheduled to undergo chemoradiation.
