Assessment of Awake Surgery With Electrocorticographic Recordings in the Management of Gliomas and Correlation With Imaging Data

This study proposes to analyze data from intraoperative ECoG recordings acquired during wakefulness interventions in order to identify the connection networks involved in cognitive functions. This study also proposes to correlate the ECoG data with the imaging data and to analyze the disturbances of the electrophysiological signals induced by the cortical and subcortical brain lesions: this will make it possible to establish a more detailed mapping of the tumor areas and to compare disturbances recorded to those recorded in healthy areas. Thus, this approach should make it possible to improve the quality of excision of glial lesions located in eloquent areas, while reducing the risk of neurological sequelae and thus improve the survival and quality of life of patients.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
1

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

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: Subject with a non-recurrent glial lesion requiring surgery in vigilance
Procedure: ECoG : electrocorticography
The skull and the dura are opened under general anesthesia and the two grids of 64 cortical electrodes will be applied to the cortex, one facing the glial lesion, and the other at a distance from the glial lesion in the so-called area. "Healthy" (non-tumor), before the patient wakes up. They consist of 8 recording slides each comprising 8 electrodes of 2 mm in diameter each spaced 0.5 mm (DispoMed®, USA).

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
electrocorticographic recordings
Time Frame: 12 months
Intraoperative ECoG recordings (raw signals) acquired during awake surgery which in clinical practice couples cortical stimulation and simultaneous ECoG recordings with behavioral tests. The regions defined as electrophysiologically "connected" to the stimulated region will be those for which an afterdischarge is recorded (short-duration rhythmic activity following the stimulation) and/or a cortico-cortical evoked potential is obtained after a average of 5 successive stimulations.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

Primary Completion (Actual)

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.
