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.

Detailed Description

A prospective comparison of PET/MRI and PET/CT for gastric cancer will be performed,to evaluate the value of PET/MRI in predicting the preoperative staging and resectability of gastric cancer and investigate the role of PET/MRI in gastric cancer diagnosis.The evaluation parameters are the diagnostic accuracy of gastric cancer staging( including the overall accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity) and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC).

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Contacts and Locations

This section provides the contact details for those conducting the study, and information on where this study is being conducted.

Study Contact

Study Contact

The name and contact information for the person who can answer enrollment questions for a clinical study. Each location where the study is being conducted may also have a specific contact, who may be better able to answer those questions.

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 to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
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.
Gastric cancer
Each patient will perform a PET/MRI examination,and in the next day,a PET/CT.All the examinations are performed before the operation.
Device: PET/MRI
The recruited patients will receive a PET/MRI examination to evaluation the stage and resectability of the cancer.
Other Names:
  • Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging
Device: PET/CT
At the next day of PET/MRI examination,A PET/CT examination will be performed.
Other Names:
  • Positron emission tomography-computed tomography

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 results of the PET/MRI and PET/CT examination
Time Frame: 3 days
Two experienced radiologists independently assess the TNM staging of gastric cancer using preoperative PET/MRI and PET/CT images
3 days

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
Histopathological diagnosis
Time Frame: 5 days
including definitely T stage in Tx, number of regional lymph node metastasis,result of histologic subtypes of carcinoma,result of other cytological examination.
5 days
Results of CT/Endoscopic ultrasound(EUS) image
Time Frame: 3 days
Experienced radiologists assess definitely T stage in Tx, number of regional lymph node metastasis,with or without distant metastasis.
3 days
Numerical values of Standard uptake value(SUV)
Time Frame: 3 days
Standard uptake value(SUV) is defined as the ratio of the image derived radioactivity concentration and the whole body concentration of the injected radioactivity.
3 days
Apparent Diffusion Coefficient(ADC)
Time Frame: 3 days
Apparent Diffusion Coefficient(ADC) will be measured using a curved Placement of region of interest(ROI) to include the high signal and be read out on ADC maps by Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI or DW-MRI) analysis software.
3 days
The expression level of Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase erbB-2(HER2)
Time Frame: 5 days
Acquire from pathology results
5 days
The expression level of Receptors for vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGFR)
Time Frame: 5 days
Acquire from pathology results
5 days
Follow-up data
Time Frame: at lest 6 months
results of conventional imaging examination and tumor biomarkers examination.

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.
