NCT ID NCT07532031

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether special MRI scans can spot where brain tumors have spread into nearby healthy tissue, which standard scans miss. About 20 adults with suspected high-grade glioma will get extra scans before surgery. The results will be compared to tissue samples to see if the new method accurately maps tumor infiltration. The goal is to improve future treatment planning and reduce tumor regrowth.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Adult patients (≥18 years) with radiologically suspected, treatment-naïve high-grade gliomas undergoing standard-of-care neurosurgical procedures (stereotactic biopsy or surgical resection) and pre-operative MRI evaluation will be prospectively enrolled. All participants will receive routine clinical management and follow-up according to standard clinical practice.

Ages

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Adult patients (both male and female, \>= 18 years old) 2. Previously acquired MRI suggestive for the presence of high-grade glioma 3. Treatment-naïve status, defined as no prior surgical, radiotherapeutic, or systemic oncological treatment for the index brain lesion. 4. Indication for biopsy or tumor resection 5. Willingness to participate to the study and ability to sign informed consent Exclusion Criteria: 1. Pregnancy (to be excluded through a human chorionic gonadotropin pregnancy test performed on urine or serum when childbearing potential) and / or lactation. 2. Contraindications to MRI because of: I. Claustrophobia II. Presence of metallic objects or implanted medical devices in body (i.e., cardiac pacemaker, aneurysm clips, surgical clips, prostheses, artificial hearts, valves with steel parts, metal fragments, shrapnel, tattoos near the eye, or steel implants) III. Sickle cell disease IV. Renal failure or reduced renal function, as determined by Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) \< 30 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 based on a serum creatinine level obtained within 40 days prior to registration 3. Presence of any other co-existing condition (such as serious systemic illness, including uncontrolled intercurrent infection, uncontrolled malignancy, significant renal or hepatic disease, or psychiatric/social situations) which might, in the judgment of the investigator, increase the risks to the subject or limit compliance with study requirements 4. Inability to undergo surgical procedures 5. Severe hepatic impairment, defined as the presence of two or more of the following parameters (assessed within 40 days): bilirubin ≥3 mg/dL, albumin \<2.8 g/dL, International normalized ratio \>2.3 with no history of anticoagulant therapy, platelet count \< 100 109/L, AST ≥ 400 U/L, ALT ≥400 U/L, presence of ascites.
