Clinical Trials Actively Recruiting

Having a large clinical trial portfolio means giving patients treatment options often not available anywhere else, and years before they become the standard of care.

      local tumor progression within the surgical bed; and/or 2) adverse radiation effect
      (ARE), the imaging correlate of post-SRS radiation necrosis; and/or 3) nodular
      meningeal disease (nMD)] is improved in patients treated with pre-resection SRS

      who receive pre-resection SRS to patients who receive post-resection SRS.
    • To determine whether there is increased time to whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT)
      in patients who receive pre-resection SRS compared to patients who receive postresection SRS.

      surgical cavity as measured by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA).

    Age Group:
    • Adult
    Phase:
    • Phase I/II
  • Objective:

    Primary Objective:

    • The primary objective of this pilot study is to evaluate tracer uptake and metabolic trapping characteristics based on [18F]FETrp PET/CT in patients with intra- and extracranial cancers; specifically, to evaluate whether the tumors show increased tracer uptake as measured by both tumor maximal and mean standardized uptake value (SUVmax and SUVmean, respectively), as compared to non-tumor tissues. In the special case of breast tumor imaging, the primary objective will be the correlation between the tumors’ SUV values and the apparent volume of distribution (VD’) which will be calculated using kinetic modeling analysis.

    Secondary Objectives:

    • Using dynamic PET imaging to establish the optimal time frame when tracer uptake peaks.
    • Using compartmental modeling (in tumors with the left ventricle of the heart in the field-of-view) to measure tracer transport and trapping variables.
    • To obtain first in human safety, biodistribution, and radiation dosimetry data for [18F]FETrp PET/CT.

    Phase:
    • Phase I
  • Objective:

    This pilot study will evaluate the use of [F-18] FLT and PET to measure tumor proliferation and the activity of thymidine kinase. This study may also assess the changes that occur after therapy. Finally we may compare the retention of [F-18] FLT in comparison to that of routine clinical measurements, such as CT, MRI or other imaging studies. One goal of this study is to better understand the abnormalities of thymidine metabolism in tumors in vivo. We may also compare imaging proliferation data using [F- 18] FLT to measurements of gene expression of proliferative and biochemical pathways made on tumor specimens obtained at biopsy.
