18 Fluoro-deoxy-glucose Positrons Emission Tomography Combined With Computed Tomography (18-FDG TEP-CT ) in the Diagnosis of the Degeneration of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Tumor of the Pancreas

May 17, 2016 updated by: Nantes University Hospital

Evaluation of 18 Fluoro-deoxy-glucose Positrons Emission Tomography Combined With Computed Tomography (18-FDG TEP-CT ) in the Diagnosis of the Degeneration of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Tumor of the Pancreas

The aim of the study is to evaluate whether the TEP-CT can be sensitive and specific in identifying degenerated intraductal papillary mucinous tumor of the pancreas.The results will be compared to those obtained by the pathological analysis of the removed piece of pancreas.

Study Overview

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

Before surgery is undertaken, a 18 fluoro-deoxy-glucose positrons emission tomography combined with computed tomography (18-FDG TEP-CT ) will be performed. The primary outcome of this study is to compare results of the TEP-CT with those obtained by the pathological analysis of the removed piece of pancreas.

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Specificity of TEP-CT to point out malignant lesions in pancreas, the gold standard being the anatomopathological analysis of the piece of pancreas removed during the surgery.
Time Frame: 3 months

TEP-CT of the different 5 parts of the pancreas (head, uncus, isthmi, body and tail) will be interpreted by nuclearity Doctors. TEP-CT will be considered positive if there is a pathological fixation of the 18-FDG , defined as any focal or diffuse fixation of 18-FDG above the background level of fixation in the pancreas.

The anatomopathological analysis of the piece of pancreas removed during the ablative surgery will be considered as positive if the degree of dysplasia seen for each part of the pancreas is "infiltrating carcinoma".

Results will then be compared in term of specificity.
3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity of TEP-CT to point out malignant lesions in pancreas, the gold standard being the anatomopathological analysis of the piece of pancreas removed during the surgery.
Time Frame: 3 months

TEP-CT of the different 5 parts of the pancreas (head, uncus, isthmi, body and tail) will be interpreted by nuclearity Doctors. TEP-CT will be considered positive if there is a pathological fixation of the 18-FDG , defined as any focal or diffuse fixation of 18-FDG above the background level of fixation in the pancreas.

The anatomopathological analysis of the piece of pancreas removed during the ablative surgery will be considered as positive if the degree of dysplasia seen for each part of the pancreas is "infiltrating carcinoma".

Results will then be compared in term of sensitivity.
3 months
Comparison of specificity of the TEP-CT to detect malignant lesions in pancreas versus specificity of conventional devices, the gold standard being the anatomopathological analysis results
Time Frame: 3 months
Result of conventional devices (such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography or endoscopic ultrasound) will be considered positive if diagnosis is "malignant lesion" or "probable malignant lesion". The 5 parts of the pancreas will be examined.
3 months
Number of patients for which metastasis will be detected through TEP-CT and confirmed by biopsy and/or conventional specific device
Time Frame: 3 months
3 months
