Trial Outcomes & Findings for [18F]Fluciclovine and [18F]FLT PET/CT Assessment of Primary High-Grade Brain Tumors (NCT NCT03276676)
NCT ID: NCT03276676
Last Updated: 2024-12-27
Results Overview
Cerebral uptake of \[18F\]FLT and \[18F\]Fluciclovine measured in terms of SUVmax and SUVmean at each imaging time point ((1) prior to any tumor-directed therapy, (2) within 1-4 weeks after the conclusion of the initial (\~6-8 weeks) chemoradiotherapy, and (3) following suspected recurrence/progression versus treatment effect (pseudoprogression) shown with MRI, within 6 months of the completion of chemoradiation). Using the first time point as baseline for the following two time points, the percent change is calculated from SUVmean and SUVmax for each of the radiotracers studied in this trial. This measure only applies to Group A, as multiple time points of scan data are needed to calculate change in uptake.
TERMINATED
PHASE1/PHASE2
10 participants
(1) Baseline [18F]FLT and [18F]Fluciclovine scans were acquired prior to initiating therapy, follow-up scans were acquired (2) 1-4 weeks following conclusion of initial chemoradiation, and (3) within 6 months of completion of chemoradiation.

Arm A
Group A will consist of patients from three different eligibility cohorts. The first, for patients where there is compelling evidence, based on the MRI and/or CT imaging, that a high-grade primary brain tumor is present. Pathologic confirmation will occur with subsequent biopsy or surgery. The second cohort of patients are individuals where the tumor is felt to be inoperable and a biopsy is performed but no surgery. The third cohort of patients are post-surgery where a complete surgical resection was not possible. This will be confirmed by a post-operative contrast MRI/CT scan where residual tumor \> 1.0 cm in diameter is present.
Participants enrolled in Group A will undergo a maximum of 6 scans throughout this study. \[18F\]FLT- and \[18F\]Fluciclovine-PET/CT scans at up to three imaging time points: (1) prior to any tumor-directed therapy, (2) within 1-4 weeks after the conclusion of the intitial (\~6-8 weeks) chemoradiotherapy, and (3) following suspected recurrence/progression versus treatment effect (pseudoprogression) shown with MRI, within 6 months of the completion of chemoradiation.
|
Arm B
Group B will enroll patients with pathologically proven malignant brain tumor (WHO Grade III or IV glialbased tumors) who have undergone chemoradiation and have a contrast enhancing mass ≥ 1.0 cm in greatest diameter concerning for pseudoprogression if MRI-documented possibility of recurrence/progression versus treatment effect (pseudoprogression) is within 6 months from the time of completion of chemoradiation.
Participants enrolled in Group B will undergo 2 scans as part of this study. \[18F\]FLT- and \[18F\]Fluciclovine-PET/CT scans will be acquired at a single timepoint, at the time of suspected pseudoprogression.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: (1) Baseline [18F]FLT and [18F]Fluciclovine scans were acquired prior to initiating therapy, follow-up scans were acquired (2) 1-4 weeks following conclusion of initial chemoradiation, and (3) within 6 months of completion of chemoradiation.Population: Only two participants from Group A were evaluable for this outcome. This outcome measure is not applicable to Group B.
Cerebral uptake of \[18F\]FLT and \[18F\]Fluciclovine measured in terms of SUVmax and SUVmean at each imaging time point ((1) prior to any tumor-directed therapy, (2) within 1-4 weeks after the conclusion of the initial (\~6-8 weeks) chemoradiotherapy, and (3) following suspected recurrence/progression versus treatment effect (pseudoprogression) shown with MRI, within 6 months of the completion of chemoradiation). Using the first time point as baseline for the following two time points, the percent change is calculated from SUVmean and SUVmax for each of the radiotracers studied in this trial. This measure only applies to Group A, as multiple time points of scan data are needed to calculate change in uptake.
