Pilot Study of Multi-Modality Imaging in Patients With Hematologic Malignancies

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Hematologic Malignancy
Interventions
Radiation: FLT PET/CT
Device: MRI
Registration Number
NCT02042924
Lead Sponsor
Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota
Brief Summary

This is a pilot sub-study of patients receiving myeloablative transplant using total body irradiation (TBI) or total marrow irradiation (TMI) in their preparative regimen. The objective of this stub-study is to estimate the heterogeneity in cellular proliferation (FLT-PET uptake) as well the heterogeneity in marrow composition distribution (measured using whole body water-fat MRI) using positron emission tomography imaging. This will be used to design future trials as well as to determine the feasibility of PET and MRI imaging.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Diagnosis of hematologic malignancy and fitting into one of the following categories:

    • Newly diagnosed and/or day 14 post-induction chemotherapy
    • Relapsed, including relapse after hematopoietic cell transplant
    • Planned hematopoietic cell transplant (if enrolling at "close") or within 100 days post hematopoietic cell transplant (if enrolling post-transplant) with a preparative regimen that includes either total marrow irradiation (TMI) or total body irradiation (TBI)
    • Undergoing natural killer cell therapies (with or without subsequent transplant)
  • Aged 18 years and older

  • Not pregnant - women of childbearing potential will have a confirmatory pregnancy test prior to each imaging per routine procedures

  • Adequate renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate > 60 ml/min) as determined by a serum creatinine level performed as a part of standard of care within 7 days of imaging

  • Able and willing to provide written consent

Exclusion Criteria
  • Otherwise eligible patients meeting one or more of the contraindicates for an MRI, may enroll in the study without undergoing the MRI:

    • ferromagnetic implants
    • history of shrapnel or shot gun injury
    • too large to fit in the magnet (approximate body mass index ≥ 40)
    • cardiac pacemakers or other implanted devices that are not MR-compatible
    • claustrophobia
    • large tattoos

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Difference in Percentage of Proliferating Bone Marrow Between Baseline and 100 Days100 days

The difference in percentage of proliferating bone marrow will be calculated for the following sites: skull, proximal humeri, ribs, clavicles, cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, sacrum, pelvis and proximal femur.

Difference in Water Fat100 days

The difference in the water-fat MRI between baseline and day 100 post transplant in L4 and femoral neck.

Percentage of Proliferating Bone Marrow in the Femur100 days

The difference in the percentage of proliferating bone marrow between baseline and day 100 post transplant in the femur
