Exploratory Study of Cerebral Perfusion and Metabolic Alterations and Neurocognitive Disorders in Patients With Unruptured Arteriovenous Malformations Before and After Surgical Treatment (APEMMAV-NR)

4 maj 2026 uppdaterad av: University Hospital, Montpellier
The goal of the clinical trial is to describe perfusion and metabolic alterations in different brain regions before and six months after surgical treatment of arteriovenous malformations in adult patients with unruptured arteriovenous malformations.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

Unruptured cerebral arteriovenous malformations are a potentially life-threatening condition and the third leading cause of intracerebral hemorrhage in young adults. Approximately two-thirds of patients with arteriovenous malformations experience a rupture leading to intracranial haemorrhage or develop progressive neurological symptoms or deficits. To date, decisions regarding interventional treatment of unruptured arteriovenous malformations are based on the characteristics of the arteriovenous malformation (size, location, etc.).However, the treatment of these arteriovenous malformations remains controversial in the literature, as the morbidity and mortality associated with intervention may exceed those the malformation's natural history. Furthermore, characteristics of arteriovenous malformations observed during examinations (size, hemodynamic patterns, vascular components) are often insufficient to predict spontaneous evolution, haemorrhagic risk, and associated symptoms.

Studies suggest that neurological symptoms may be linked to impaired cerebral perfusion and metabolism, particularly through hypoperfusion in the peri-arteriovenous malformation region or peri-lesional oedema. However, the results of these previous studies remain limited and of little significance.

The proposed project aims to establish a cohort over a 16-month period in order to study in detail the metabolic and perfusion alterations associated with arteriovenous malformations, as well as their neurocognitive and psychological impacts, with the aim of improving the pathophysiology understanding and treatment of these malformations.

Experimentell: Experimentell arm

For the 18F-FDG (fluorodeoxyglucose labelled with fluorine-18) PET scan, a dynamic protocol with the radiopharmaceutical injected directly under the scanner.

The dose injected will be the same as that used in routine clinical practice, i.e. calculated based on the patient's weight.

The patient must fast for 6 hours prior to the examination. The total duration of the dynamic PET scan is estimated at approximately 1 hour 30 minutes.

For the neuropsychological assessment, a series of standardised tests, validated for the assessment of cognitive functions, will be administered. This assessment will be carried out by neuropsychologists trained in the use of these tests and who administer them as part of their routine practice, or by a trained physiatrist specialising in disorders of the central nervous system. The neuropsychological assessment is expected to take 2 to 3 hours per visit for the patient.
