Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI(DCE-MRI)of Bone Tumors

April 9, 2014 updated by: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
The purpose of this study is to see whether fast imaging with MRI and the usual contrast material used for MRI, predicts which patients will do well with treatment. Some studies suggest that MRIs done right before surgery may be able to tell how much of the cancer was killed by the chemotherapy. This study will see if this is true in patients with osteogenic sarcoma (OS) and Ewing's sarcoma (ES). This study will also see if MRIs done early in treatment can tell if the chemotherapy is working.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients will undergo DCE-MRI studies prior to chemotherapy, 18-24 days after starting treatment, continue treatment and undergo a third MRI within 25 days prior to surgery. All patients with OS or Ewing sarcoma who will undergo pre-operative chemotherapy are eligible for study. Anti-neoplastic therapy will be determined by the primary physician and will not be impacted upon by this study, although the data will be made available to the physicians involved in the patient's care. The goals of this study are: 1) To determine if pre-operative dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) can reliably predict percent necrosis at definitive surgery in bone tumors after induction chemotherapy. 2) Evaluate the hypothesis that in patients with Ewing or osteogenic sarcoma (OS), the a priori or early (18-24 days into treatment) DCE-MRI study predicts pathological percent necrosis measured at surgery, and disease free survival. 3) Determine if the DCE-MRI results are independent markers of tumor response compared to current clinical markers (LDH, alkaline phosphatase (osteogenic sarcoma only), primary disease site, primary disease size (length and volume), stage). 4) Compare the DCE-MRI results with several key molecular parameters including p53 mutations and CDKN2A deletion in Ewing's sarcoma and RB alterations, CDKN2A deletion, and expression of HER-2, platelet derived growth factor, reduced folate carrier, and pglycoprotein in osteogenic sarcoma. Ewing's sarcoma and osteogenic sarcoma samples will also be submitted for Affymetrix expression microarray analysis. Summary: This project will determine the potential of DCE-MRI to predict tumor necrosis and as an a priori or early marker of tumor response to neoadjuvant therapy

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: 1
Other: DCE-MRI

Patients will undergo DCE-MRI prior to, and within 18-24 days of starting chemotherapy. These studies are designed to determine if the DCE-MRI data will provide an a priori or early prognostic marker of tumor response. The dynamic MRI is done on a standard clinical scanner using standard techniques described below.

MR imaging studies will be acquired on a 1.5T GE (Milwaukee,WI) Signa LX scanner.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Pts will undergo baseline MRI prior to begin chemotherapy. Bet 18-24 days after beginning chemotherapy, they will undergo second MRI. They will continue chemotherapy and w/in 25 days prior definitive surgery, will undergo another MRI.
