Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI in detecting lymph nodes that have been invaded by tumor cells in patients with colorectal cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will investigate the accuracy of ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI in detecting lymph nodes that have been invaded by tumor cells in patients with colorectal cancer. This study will be performed in addition to any ongoing routine care and will not serve as a substitute for any imaging tests that would be routinely performed prior to surgery.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI

This is a single-arm study. All enrolled patients will have a ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI scan.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ferumoxytol

Intervention Type DRUG

All study patients will receive a dose of ferumoxytol for the MRI. Ferumoxytol will be administered intravenously at a dose of 6 mg/kg, for a maximum dose of 510 mg.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Intervention Type OTHER

All study patients will undergo a ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI in addition to any other ongoing care for colorectal cancer. Histopathologic analysis of lymph nodes will be the gold standard for determining lymph node status.
