Interest of PET-MRI in the Evaluation of the Response After Neoadjuvant Treatment of Locally Advanced Rectal Adenocarcinoma

NCT05772481 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

With 50 patients included, this trial would be the largest pilot study evaluating the value of MRI PET in locally advanced rectal cancer. On the other hand, it would be the only pilot study performing several MRI PET during neoadjuvant treatment. Presumably, the response assessed at the 2nd MRI PET (before cycle 4 or induction chemotherapy) would be predictive of the overall response at the end of neoadjuvant treatment. Then, it would be possible to predict precociously the tumor response.

PET-MRI

Each patient will have a pre-treatment PET-MRI (PET-MRI 1) within 21 days before the start of treatment. Induction chemotherapy may be performed at another center than the investigating center. After 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy and before the 4th cycle, a second PET MRI (PET MRI 2) will be performed. In patients who have received less than 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy, this mid-therapy PET-MRI will not be performed. A 3rd PET-MRI will be performed prior to radiation therapy (PET-MRI 3). A final MRI PET (MRI PET 4) will take place before surgery. A total of 4 PET MRI scans will be performed.
