Hyperpolarized 13C MRI as a Biomarker in Advanced Solid Tumors
Start Date
12/15/2022
Completion Date
1/31/2027
Summary
This is a single center prospective imaging study investigating the utility of hyperpolarized 13C-pyruvate +/-13C,15N-Urea/ metabolic MR imaging. The current protocol will serve as a companion imaging biomarker study paired with standard of care (SOC) therapeutics, as well as investigational therapies that participants may be scheduled to receive outside of this protocol.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: Phase I/Part A 1\. To optimize the signal-to-noise ratio in detecting intra-tumoral hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate/lactate signal and hyperpolarized urea area under the curve (AUC) using metabolic magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in patients with advanced solid tumors. Phase II/Part B 1\. To determine the mean percent change from baseline in peak intra-tumoral hyperpolarized lactate-to-pyruvate ratio,pyruvate-to-lactate kinetic constant (kPL) and urea AUC after initiation of usual care/standard of care (SOC) treatment SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: Phase I/Part A 1. To further characterize the safety profile of hyperpolarized 13C-pyruvate +/- 13C,15N-urea. 2. To determine the reproducibility of intra-tumoral HP lac/pyr ratio with same-day repeated dose studies. Phase II/Part B 1. To study the association between clinical outcomes and the percent change from baseline in peak intra-tumoral hyperpolarized lactate-to pyruvate ratio and kPL (+/-correction for HP urea AUC) after initiation of SOC treatment. 2. To further characterize the safety profile of hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate +/- 13C,15N-urea. 3. To determine the reproducibility of intra-tumoral HP lac/pyr ratio and/or HP urea AUC with same-day repeated dose studies. OUTLINE: Participants will be enrolled in Part A which is the feasibility, run-in study which includes the iterative adjustment of coil design to optimize imaging parameters within the target tumor lesion(s). If the data from Part A supports further investigation, additional participants will be enrolled in Part B which is a biomarker cohort which includes participants who are planning on being treated with either standard-of-care (SOC) or investigational therapies and will be followed until discontinuation of the treatment regimen outside of this protocol.
