18F-FDG PET-MRI for Planning and Follow-Up of Patients With Spine Tumors Treated With Spine Stereotactic Radiosurgery

December 22, 2023 updated by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

A Pilot Study on the Efficacy of Advanced 18F-FDG PET-MRI in Spine Stereotactic Radiosurgery

This trial studies how well 18F-FDG PET-MRI works for treatment planning in patients with spine tumors. Diagnostic procedures, such as 18F-FDG PET-MRI may help radiation oncologists plan the best treatment for spine tumors, as well as help in follow-up after radiation therapy.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the therapeutic efficacy of fludeoxyglucose F-18 (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in spine stereotactic radiosurgery (SSRS) treatment planning compared to advanced MRI (aMRI) and conventional MRI (cMRI).

II. Determine the diagnostic accuracy of 18F-FDG PET-MRI in follow-up of patients treated with SSRS.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Analysis of the subset of patients who eventually suffer local treatment failure to determine patterns of failure and potential predictive PET/MRI features at baseline.

II. Analysis of the subset of patients who suffer complications of SSRS (e.g., vertebral compression fracture) to determine potential predictive imaging features.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive fludeoxyglucose F-18 intravenously (IV) over 1 minute, and then undergo PET-MRI over 1 hour, 30 days before radiation therapy, and 3 and 6 months after radiation therapy.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Consent to imaging study
  • Presence of at least 1 lumbar vertebral body bone metastasis > 1 cm in shortest diameter and smaller than 75% of the vertebral body cross sectional area. Metastasis may be determined by pathology, or imaging appearance.
  • Eligibility to receive SSRS (determined by treating radiation oncologists)
  • Plan for single-fraction SSRS
  • Standard-of-care spine MRI within 8 weeks of radiation therapy
  • Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document
  • Non-English speaking participants will be included. Verbal Translation Preparative Sheet (VTPS) short form will be utilized in consenting non-English speaking participants.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Absolute or relative contra-indication to MRI, including presence of a pacemaker that requires involvement of cardiology/anesthesiology during the scan
  • Prior directed radiation to the involved segment
  • Contra-indication to gadolinium based contrast agents (e.g., allergy, pregnancy)
  • Individuals younger than 18 years
  • Hardware at the treatment level or hardware affecting visualization of the involved level on MRI
  • Pregnant women
