NCT ID: NCT05534594 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Medullary Thyroid Cancer

Evaluation of the 18F-PSMA Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/CT in Patients With Medullary Thyroid Cancer

MIMETIC
Start date: August 19, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Rationale: In patients with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), molecular imaging is used to assess the extent of disease in the primary diagnostic process and follow-up period to determine possible therapeutic options. The currently most used tracer in clinical practice, F-18 labelled fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), does not accurately detect MTC tumors with an indolent growth rate. A new, complimentary tracer is warranted to detect different subtypes. Objective: The primary objective is to assess the feasibility of using the F-18 labelled prostate specific membrane antigen (18F-PSMA) PET/CT for (re)staging patients with medullary thyroid cancer. The secondary objective is to compare the ability to detect MTC with the 18F-PSMA PET/CT to that of the 18F-FDG PET/CT. Study design: Prospective, single-centre, feasibility study. Study population: Patients (18 years of age or older) with biochemically and cytological/histological confirmed MTC, for whom the indication of an 18F-FDG PET/CT for tumor staging has already been determined on clinical grounds. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome of this study is the performance (lesion-based//patient-based sensitivity) of the 18F-PSMA PET to detect MTC lesions in patients with cytologically/histologically confirmed disease. Secondarily, the performance of the 18F-PSMA PET will be compared to the 18F-FDG PET/CT.

NCT ID: NCT02088645 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Thyroid Cancer, Medullary

177Lu-PP-F11N for Receptor Targeted Therapy and Imaging of Metastatic Thyroid Cancer.

Lumed
Start date: April 2015
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the use of 177Lu-PP-F11N for imaging and therapy of patients with advanced medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). 177Lu-PP-F11N is a gastrin analogon, binding to cholecystokinin-2 receptors. This receptors show an overexpression on more than 90 % of medullary thyroid carcinomas. In the pilot (phase 0) study investigators will correlate the tumour detection rate with the surgery and histology (proof of concept study). Furthermore, kidney protection and dosimetry studies will be performed in order to determine the kidney protection protocol and starting activity for the dose escalation study in the following, dose escalation (phase I) study. In the phase I study investigators will determinate the maximum tolerated dose of 177Lu-PP-F11N in patients with MTC. Furthermore, correlation with tumour radiation dose and treatment response as well as organ radiation doses and maximal tolerated dose will be performed in order to allow prospective individual patient tailored therapy planning. In the phase I study, participation is additionally possible for patients with well differentiated GEP-NET (grade 1-3) with a Ki67 index of up to 55% or NET of the lung or thymus (grade 1 and 2).
