Deuterium Metabolic Imaging to Assess Radiotherapy Changes in Glioblastoma Multiforme

November 30, 2023 updated by: University of Aarhus
This is a feasibility single arm study designed for obtaining early data for optimization and evaluation of the clinical potential for a new MR technique using deuterated glucose. The purpose of the study is to investigate whether this technique is useful in metabolic imaging of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and whether radiochemotherapy (RCT) induced changes in the brain metabolism can be detected and might be predictive for treatment response. The study will include 10 patients with histologically verified GBM scheduled for standard RCT. Patients will have MRI scan performed before and within 8 weeks after starting RCT. The scans will include imaging after oral intake of deuterated glucose, so called deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI). Based on this study, the most optimal scanning technique, output variables of highest discriminative power with respect to RCT, and potential predictive markers for response will be selected for further clinical investigation.

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.

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

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
Deuterium Metabolic Imaging
Time Frame: Imaging repeated twice with ~10 weeks between them.
2H-glucose uptake and conversion to lactate and glx over 120 minutes in normal brain and tumor tissue. Before and after radiochemotherapy to measure the changes with therapy.
Imaging repeated twice with ~10 weeks between them.

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
Perfusion MRI
Time Frame: Imaging repeated twice with ~10 weeks between them.
Dynamic contrast enhancement MRI using a gadolinium-based contrast agent.
Imaging repeated twice with ~10 weeks between them.
Microvascular diffusion MRI
Time Frame: Imaging repeated twice with ~10 weeks between them.

Imaging repeated twice with ~10 weeks between them.
Amide proton transfer weighted MRI
