What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Utility of [18F]-FLT PET to assess cellular proliferation in neoadjuvant trials of patients with rectal cancer
Time frame: at study entry, at week 3 during chemotherapy and radiation, and at week 11 after treatment but before surgery
Ability of this imaging technique to determine growth of cancer cells and as a quantitative biomarker of response to relevant, molecularly targeted, therapies
Sponsor's own description
The purpose of this study is to determine if positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with an imaging agent called 18F-fluorodeoxythymidine(\[18F\]-FLT) will allow investigators to measure how well tumor(s) respond to treatment without taking a tissue sample (biopsy). Additionally, the investigators want to determine if it is possible to predict how well tumor(s) might respond to treatment with \[18F\]-FLT PET imaging.
