Image-derived Prediction of Response to Chemo-radiation in Glioblastoma (IDEPREG)

October 11, 2017 updated by: Michael Lundemann Jensen, Rigshospitalet, Denmark

Image-derived Prediction of Response to Chemo-radiation in Patients With Glioblastoma

This study seeks to investigate if advanced image-analysis of diagnostic scans, can be used to predict how aggressive brain tumors (glioblastoma) respond to standard chemo- and radiation treatment.

Conditions

Detailed Description

Generally, response prediction models seeks to predict time to an event, e.g. time-to-progression and/or overall survival. The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility of establishing an individualized response model, that, based on several morphologic, physiologic and metabolic parameters extracted from computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is able to predict the tumor response at the level of an imaging voxel, using machine learning techniques.

Imaging modalities include MRI, PET/CT with 18F-fluroethyltyrosine (18F-FET), and PET/MRI with 64Cu-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) (64Cu-ATSM).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity and specificity of predicted response
Time Frame: 3 months post radiotherapy
Tumor response is measured as contrast-enhancing tumor on T1-weighted MRI and by metabolic active tumor using 18F-fluroethyl-tyrosine (FET)-PET. Pre-treatment risk map is constructed using machine learning methods and compared to post-treatment scans.
3 months post radiotherapy

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
DICE-similarity coefficient and percentage overlap of 64Cu-ATSM and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI
Time Frame: 3 months post radiotherapy
Pre-chemoradiotherapy 64Cu-ATSM-PET is used as a surrogate marker for hypoxia and compared to treatment response, measured as contrast-enhancing tumor on T1-weighted MRI
3 months post radiotherapy
Correlation (volume and maximum values) between lactate and hypoxia
Time Frame: 1 week before start of chemoradiotherapy
Lactate measured by MR spectroscopy is compared to metabolic uptake of 64Cu-ATSM-PET
1 week before start of chemoradiotherapy
