Filter by:In this study, the investigators aim to provide a deeper understanding of Parkinson's disease and find a biomarker of Parkinson's disease. This is done using imaging scans called Positron Emission tomography (PET), Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The findings will provide a deeper understanding of the brain changes in Parkinson's disease. More importantly, this study will help with the discovery and development of new medications aiming to delay progression of Parkinson's disease symptoms
In this study, the researchers aim to find a biomarker of PD. Using imaging scans called Positron Emission tomography (PET), Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The PET and SPECT scans use small amounts of radiation and specific compounds called tracers, to study chemical changes in the brain in a way not possible with any other procedure. The MRI uses magnetic fields to generate images of brain structure and function
As an emerging molecule targeting FAP, 68Ga-FAP-CHX is promising as an excellent imaging agent applicable to various cancers. In this study, we observed the safety, biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of 68Ga-FAP-CHX in patients with various types of cancer and compared them with the results of 68Ga-FAPI-04 or 18F-FDG imaging to evaluate the dosimetric characteristics and diagnostic efficacy of 68Ga-FAP-CHX.
The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic performance of 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT in primary and metastatic lesions of breast cancer and to reveal the best diagnostic imaging time of 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT.
It is an open label observation clinical trial, all participants are chronic liver disease. The investigators deem to make a novel evaluate criteria to hepatic fibrosis. The point of the clinical trial is to evaluate the novel biomaker 18F-FAPI-04 by PET-CT scan in the evaluation of the hepatic fibrosis.
Primary aldosteronism is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. The two main types of primary aldosteronism are aldosteronoma(30%) and adrenal hyperplasia(60%). The gold standard that determines the diagnosis and treatment strategy of primary aldosteronism is adrenal vein sampling(AVS), but the success rate is only about 80%. Using CXCR4 as a probe for 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT imaging can guide the classification diagnosis and treatment strategy of primary aldosteronism, which is a favorable supplement to AVS. Superselective adrenal artery embolization(SAAE) and laparoscopy are the main operation treatments for primary aldosteronism. SAAE is an invasive interventional operation. It is a novel way to evaluate the changes in the structure and function of adrenal tissue pre-postoperative SAAE by using the changes in 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT imaging.
To evaluate the potential usefulness of 68Ga-NOTA Evans Blue (68Ga-NEB) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of primary and efficacy assessment in lymphatic system related diseases.
Investigating the performance of Multi-tracer Multimodality PET in lymphoma
The study is an open label, multi-centre, randomized phase III study. The patients will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to treatment consisting of - Arm A: MD-SBRT in addition to standard treatment - Arm B: Standard treatment Study population: Patients with hormone sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) with oligometastatic disease detected by PSMA-PET/DT. This includes patients with de novo oligometastatic HSPC and recurrent HSPC after primary RT or prostatectomy. Primary endpoint: Failure free survival Secondary endpoints: - Predictive value of investigated biomarkers in blood and imaging - Acute and late toxicity after MD-SBRT - PROM at 3 months, 1, 3 and 5 years - Castration resistant prostate cancer, CRPC - Overall survival - Differences in outcome between patients by strata Stratification: To avoid imbalance between treatment arms the minimisation method will be used to achieve balance between de novo oligo-metastatic and oligo-recurrent patients, as well as treatment site. Safety evaluation: Adverse events and side effects graded according to CTCAE v5.0 will be collected every 6th month. Serious Adverse Events are to be reported within 24 hours throughout the study duration. Statistical methods: Survival endpoints will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method with differences compared using the stratified log-rank test. Randomization time is set as baseline time. Pre-planned subgroup analysis will occur based on pre-specified stratification variables. A Cox multivariable regression model will be used to determine factors predictive of survival. Safety analysis will be performed with Mann-Whitney U-test or Fishers exact test. Criteria for evaluation: Per protocol (patients that have started study treatment) and Intention to treat (all included patients). Planned sample size: 118 patients Analysis plan: The primary end point will be analysed after pre-specified number of events have occurred. All patients randomised to SBRT will be followed minimum 60 months for toxicity. Safety analysis of acute toxicity will take place after median follow up of 6 months. Safety analysis of late toxicity will be analysed after study closure. Duration of the study: Three to five years inclusion. 72 months of follow-up after randomization of the last patient.
To evaluate the potential usefulness of 68Ga-PSMA-11 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of primary and metastatic lesions, efficacy assessment and recurrence monitoring in various types of cancer.
