Clinical Trial: Evaluation of FDOPA-PET/MRI in Pediatric Patients With CNS Tumors
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Evaluation of FDOPA-PET/MRI in Pediatric Patients With CNS Tumors, A Feasibility Study
Brief Summary: To determine if FDOPA-PET/MRI imaging can predict response to treatment of bevacizumab.
Detailed Summary: Evaluate the feasibility of using FDOPA-PET/MRI pediatric patients with CNS tumors. Positive results in this small study would provide the data needed to expand the study to validate the use in a larger population of pediatric patients. Validating the use of FDOPA-PET imaging as an early predictor for response to anti-angiogenic therapy could greatly impact the standard of care for treating and evaluating pediatric brain tumors and provide a useful biomarker for assessing experimental therapeutics.
