NCT ID: NCT00582608 Completed - Sarcoma Clinical Trials

Tumor Detection Using Iodine-131-Labeled Monoclonal Antibody 8H9

Start date: October 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to find out whether the monoclonal antibody 8H9 is useful in finding tumors in your body. Antibodies are protein found naturally in blood. They can fasten themselves to bacteria and viruses. They can stimulate white cells and blood proteins to kill tumors. The antibody 8H9 was made from mouse white cells. The white cells that secrete this antibody have been made to live for ever. They manufacture large amounts of 8H9 for patient use. Although other monoclonal antibodies have been safely tested in people, the antibody 8H9 has never been given to a human patient.

NCT ID: NCT00581815 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Spectroscopy With Surface Coils and Decoupling

Start date: February 1997
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to obtain chemical information from part of your body without a biopsy. This is done using a technique called magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) which is similar to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) except that signals are detected from the chemicals (spectroscopy) naturally present in your body using radio waves. To receive this information from your body, small loops of wire (surface coils), placed near the tissue of interest, may be used to more effectively detect signals that come from the chemicals in your body. The investigators may use a second radio channel simultaneously, which will allow us to obtain greater chemical information (decoupling). The results may also help us to understand how this study can be used to help other patients with your condition.
