Assistance in Neurosurgery by Extemporaneous Analysis of Magnetic Resonance of the Metabolic Content in Excised Tissues (ExtempoRMN)

The main ambition of this project is to develop, and provide the medical community, an innovative method to analyze extemporaneously, during a neurosurgery operation, excised tissues. This method is based on the analysis of the metabolic profile of excised tissues by the technique of High-Resolution Magic-Angle Spinning (HR-MAS) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Indeed HRMAS NMR method can provide in a sufficiently short time lapse (currently about 30 minutes but within our project a time lapse of 15 min or even less is ultimately intended), medical information that can complement those obtained by classic histological examination.

Primary purpose:

The main objective of this study is to determine the sensitivity of HRMAS NMR spectroscopy in detecting residual tumor infiltration at the brain resection cavity. The investigators aim to determine the relevance of the metabolic analysis compared to histological analysis during a neurosurgery operation. This involves analyzing excised tissue samples, obtained from the operating rooms of Strasbourg University Hospitals, and Colmar Hospital Center, with no return to neurosurgeon for surgery.

Secondary purposes:

The secondary objectives of the protocol are to investigate the metabolome of different types of brain tumors, in order to find prognostic and diagnostic markers. It consists in detecting metabolomic factors of bad prognosis, and potential marker of good prognosis such as the IDH mutation.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

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.

Study Type

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

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Under the " ExtempoRMN "project, we propose to focus on primary brain tumors mainly gliomas that include: Glioblastomas, the low-grade oligodendrogliomas (WHO grade II) and high grade (WHO grade III), Astrocytomas. Normality will be obtained by analysis of control brain tissues from epilepsy surgery. Study population for this project is all the patients of department of neurosurgery of Strasbourg University Hospitals and Colmar Hospital center, for whom a neurosurgical operation is programmed before inclusion in this study, and who meets inclusion criteria.

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  • Male or female
  • Age 18 years of age or older at the time of surgery
  • Primary brain tumors (gliomas mainly) or epilepsy, for which neurosurgical intervention is programmed
  • In the case of brain tumors: primary-lesions or transformation of low-grade gliomas into high-grade gliomas not treated with radiotherapy
  • Affiliated with a social security
  • Having signed the informed consent
  • Having been informed of the results of the medical examination prior

Exclusion criteria:

  • Relapse of tumors previously treated with radiotherapy or chemotherapy
  • Subject under treatment (radiotherapy or chemotherapy) prior to surgery
  • Metastatic lesions (location of the primary lesion outside the central nervous system)
  • Inability to give to the subject or his/her family enlightened information (subject in emergency situation, difficulties of understanding...)
  • Subject under judicial protection
  • Subject under guardianship or curatorship
  • Patients' Refusal

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
The percentage of the cases for which, the HRMAS NMR spectroscopy results of the excised tissues are consistent with quantitative histological analysis of the same excised tissues.
Time Frame: 3 years from the beginning of the study
To validate the primary endpoint of this study, statistical analysis should confirm this consistency in at least 95% of the cases.
3 years from the beginning of the study

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
October 1, 2014

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
