PET/CT Assessment of Tumor Perfusion in Patients With Renal Cell Carcinoma

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Renal Cell Carcinoma
Interventions
Drug: 150-Water
Drug: 62Cu-ethylglyoxal bis
Procedure: Positron Emission Tomography
Registration Number
NCT01502228
Lead Sponsor
Indiana University
Brief Summary

Given the growing importance of anti-angiogenic therapies in the treatment of metastatic renal carcinoma, it is expected that this trial will establish the preliminary data needed to apply for funding of a larger clinical investigation of the potential role of PET perfusion imaging in management of renal carcinoma, and potentially other cancers.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Patients Where 62Cu-ETS PET and 15O-water PET Was ObtainedBaseline

Number of patients who had at least a baseline measurement of 62Cu-ETS PET and 15O-water PET

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum Standard Uptake Value (SUV) for Lesion DataBaseline and 14-28 days after initiation of Sunitinib

Average values of the magnitude of tumor perfusion before and 14-28 days after initiation of Sunitinib treatment as measured by the maximum standard uptake value for all the lesion data. Standard uptake values were calculated as the ratio of the image derived radioactivity concentration and the whole body concentration of the injected radioactivity tracer. There were 14 patients who had a baseline reading and 12 patients who had a reading after treatment.
