简要总结
The main objective is to study whether imaging detection of the biomarker DAT can be used to detect kidney tumors identified by computer tomography (CT), which are pathologically assesses as being of the clear cell subtype.
详细描述
Main objective of the trial:
The main objective is to investigate whether DaTSCAN with subsequent SPECT can detect elevated DAT levels in at least a lesion identified with CT in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma, as assesed by pathologist? DaTSCAN signal will be seen as positive, displaying intensity ≥3ggr higher than the background and correlating anatomically with at least one lesion found with CT. DaTSCAN is used routinely to detect the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the striatum of patients with clinically uncertain Parkinsonian Syndromes. The active substance in DaTSCAN, Ioflupane specifically binds to DAT. By analyzing the focal uptake of Ioflupane (123I) with SPECT / CT the progression of the disease may be clarified. In light of our findings that clear cell renal cancer express significantly elevated levels of DAT, we postulate that DaTSCAN can be used for detection of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Protection of trial subjects:
Very few adverse effects are reported for DatSCAN use. In this study we used the same dose and route of administration as is praxis for DaTSCAN when used for diagnostic investigation of Parkinsons disease. Albeit uncommon, pain at the injection site has been previously reported when the solution was injected into a small vain. To minimise the potential for pain at the injection site during administration in this study, a slow intravenous injection (not less than 15 to 20 seconds) via an arm vein was therefore applied. The injections were performed by routined staff at Skåne University Hospital, Department of Clinical Physiology / Nuclear Medicine in Malmö, where usual clinical preparedness for allergic reactions after injection was available.

研究组 & 干预措施
experimental group
185 megabecquerel (MBq) of Ioflupane I-123 (DaTSCAN) will be administered IV to patients with suspected renal cell carcinoma, at a single occasion and followed by SPECT-analysis 5h after injection.The images from the DaTSCAN investigation will be analyzed and anatomically compared to CT-scan from the same the patient. Any adverse effects during the study will be reported.
This is a exploratory open single arm trial, including a small number of patients with suspected disseminated renal cell carcinoma.
干预措施: Ioflupane I123 (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants That Display Ioflupane-positivity in Tumors Detected Via CT-scan
时间窗: Through study completion for each participant, an average of 3 months
The primary endpoint is to investigate if tumors detected with CT display Ioflupane positivity in patients with verified clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Ioflupane signal was considered positive when intensity was \>3 times background signal in anatomic position identified as a lesion by CT-scan
次要结局
- Number of Participants Diagnosed With Non-ccRCC That Display Ioflupane I123-negativity in Tumors Detected Via CT-scan(Through study completion for each participant, an average of 3 months)
