Clinical Trials associated with Hyperpolarized C13 pyruvateHyperpolarized (HP) 13C Pyruvate Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) as a Response Monitoring Tool in Patients With High-Risk Prostate Cancer Receiving Neoadjuvant Therapy
This study will evaluate the use of hyperpolarized 13C MRI (HP 13C MRI) and the HP-derived 13C pyruvate-to-lactate conversion rate constant (kPL) as an early response biomarker in men with treatment-naïve, high-risk, localized or locally advanced prostate cancer receiving neoadjuvant therapy.
Hyperpolarized 13-C Pyruvate MRI Surveillance of Multiple Cancers
Many human diseases are characterized by their ability to alter existing metabolic pathways and interrupt cellular processes. Cancer exploits the Warburg effect and utilizes greater glucose than normal cells and within this process uses anaerobic respiration, leading to increased conversion of pyruvate to lactate. This can be exploited by hyperpolarized imaging. Hyperpolarized 13C MRI imaging is an approach that utilizes a stable isotope of Carbon (13C) linked to pyruvate. MRI spectroscopy is used in conjunction with hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate in order to temporally detect pyruvate and its conversion to lactate in-vivo, in order to visualize downstream metabolic (glycolytic) activity secondary to the Warburg effect, which should be useful in detecting and characterizing tumors of various types. Hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate MR imaging has not been tested in most cancers. In this preliminary survey, we will test the hypothesis that hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate MR imaging can be used to image various cancers.
A Phase 2 Study of Magnetic Resonance (MR) Imaging With Hyperpolarized 13C-Pyruvate +/- 13C,15N-Urea in Patients With Prostate Cancer Undergoing Radiation Therapy
This is a Phase 2 clinical study of hyperpolarized (HP) 13C-pyruvate (13C), 15N-urea (13C,15N) metabolic MR imaging in prostate cancer patients who are undergoing or have received radiation therapy for prostate cancer.
