Neurosurgical Neuronavigation Using Resting State MRI and Machine Learning

Study Purpose

This study is investigating the use of a computer algorithm to analyze scans of the brain before surgery to predict how a person's tumor will respond to treatment.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Observational
Eligible Ages 18 Years and Over
Gender All
More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Must be planning to undergo a pre-operative MRI.
  • - Must be at least 18 years old.
  • - Must be able to understand and willing to sign an IRB approved written informed consent document.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05864976
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: Standard of care rsfMRI using the Support Vector Machine algorithm

Once enrolled, clinical pre-surgical MRI will be done on Siemens 3T Prisma or Skyra scanners using a standard pre-surgical tumor protocol. Resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) will be acquired. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm will be used on this pre-surgical MRI. Patients will undergo post-operative MRI at approximately 8-12 weeks following surgical resection to evaluate extent of resection. Patients will then undergo subsequent MRI imaging every 2-3 months as part of routine clinical care to monitor for recurrence. The following MR sequences will be acquired: pre-and post-contrast T1-weighted, T2-weighted FLAIR, diffusion weighted imaging. MRI scans will be reviewed by a board-certified neuroradiologist to determine date of radiographic progression/recurrence. Imaging features at recurrence including location, multifocality, and presence of diffuse or distant recurrence will also be recorded.
