Brief Summary

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

The goal of pilot study is to assess the feasibility of FDG-PET/MRI for monitoring rectal cancer disease status in the setting of rectal cancer non-operative management (NOM). Data from this study will be used to guide the design of future clinical trials involving FDG-PET/MRI for rectal cancer NOM.

Study Groups

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

FDG PET/MRI

-Patients will undergo FDG-PET/MRI in lieu of the standard pelvic MRI at up to 6 time-points at which it would normally be performed in their care for the period of time extending 30-36 months from the time of enrollment (depending on enrollment point). In the surveillance period, when patients typically undergo pelvic MRI every 3 months, the FDG-PET/MRI will be done in lieu of the standard pelvic MRI on an approximately every-other-scan basis. In other words, the FDG-PET/MRI will occur roughly once every 6 months.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

FDG PET/MRI

Intervention Type DEVICE

-All patients will undergo a simultaneous list mode PET and MR acquisition beginning 55-65 minutes after administration of FDG according to a standard weight-based scale.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* At least 18 years of age
* Biopsy-proven rectal adenocarcinoma of the rectum with clinically suspected or previously known stage I-IIIB (cT1-4, N0-2, M0) disease
* Anticipated or prior chemoradiation as part of an NOM treatment strategy
* Ability to understand and willingness to sign an IRB-approved written informed consent document

Exclusion Criteria

* Prior surgical resection of rectal cancer (endoscopic or TME)
* Contraindication to MRI
* Comorbidities that would limit patient's ability to cooperate with a PET/MRI examination (e.g. dementia, inability to follow commands, claustrophobia, tremors, requirement for oxygen by nasal cannula, etc…).
* Implanted devices or materials that may interfere with MRI imaging or create significant artifact
* Pregnancy
* Contraindication to gadolinium contrast or FDG
* End-stage renal disease
