Trial Outcomes & Findings for SPECT/CT in Measuring Lung Function in Patients With Cancer Undergoing Radiation Therapy (NCT NCT01982123)

NCT ID: NCT01982123

Last Updated: 2018-12-13

Results Overview

Perfusion and ventilation on SPECT/CT pre-radiation, mid-radiation, and post-radiation were compared to assess stability over time. Coefficient of determination (R²) was generated based on voxel-based comparisons between scans (R²=1 means perfect reproducibility in perfusion and ventilation between scans), based on regions outside the radiation field.

Patients undergo 99mTc-MAA and 99mTc-DTPA SPECT/CT at baseline, mid-radiation therapy (up to 1 week post-treatment), and at 3-6 months post-treatment. Patients also undergo a pre-treatment 18F FDG PET/CT scan per standard of care.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to up to 3 months post-treatment

For lung tissue inside the radiation field, changes in tracer uptake at the global lung, regional lung, and lung image voxel scales (compared to baseline) will be plotted against the radiation dose at the same scales to generate multiscale radiation dose response curves. These curves will be fit to linear and sigmoid dose-response functions. Lung regions in the upper quartile and lower quartile of ventilation and perfusion will also be separated out, and separate radiation dose response curves per region will be generated. We report here the dose at which there is a 50% decrease in lung perfusion based on the above analysis.
