- Registration Number
- NCT06716294
- Lead Sponsor
- National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
- Brief Summary
This pilot study will try to demonstrate metabolic changes in spine lesions treated by Augmentation and Ablation, according to existing standards of practice. Our purpose is to show the efficacy of a new radiofrequency radioablation (RFA) in combination with augmentation, using a percutaneous ablation device (Osteocool-Medtronic) in the treatment of secondary vertebral bone tumor, avoiding concurrent bias related to other treatments of the disease.
- Detailed Description
Only patient supposed to undergo percutaneous vertebral augmentation for secondary osteolytic and mixed (lytic and sclerotic) spine tumors with one to three active lesions will be enrolled. Lesions to be treated must be metabolically active on PET-CT, performed during the last month. Patients will be informed and sign and inform consent. Patients will be treated with Augmentation and Ablation (Osteocool-Medtronic). Post treatment patients will be submitted to a new PET-CT in order to verify activity on treated site.
