About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Brain Cancer focused on measuring brain tumor, radiation, MRI, 09-009

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Suspected or Histopathologically proven diagnosis of high grade or low glioma or tumor is suspected to harbor an isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation
  • May undergo radiation therapy
  • Patient and/or guardian is able to provide written informed consent prior to study registration
  • Age ≥ 18 years old

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Extreme claustrophobia that precludes MRI scan
  • Known allergic reaction to Gd-DTPA
  • Any contraindication to gadolinium intravenous contrast as per standard Department of Radiology contrast guidelines
  • Any absolute contraindication to MRI (e.g., pacemaker, aneurysm clip, tissue expander).
  • Pregnant or nursing female
  • Unable to cooperate for MRI and/or radiation therapy planning

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

MRI

Arm Description

The advanced MRI studies will be obtained at the time of the routinely scheduled preoperative planning MRI and/or the routinely scheduled pre-RT planning MRI at approximately 3±2 weeks after surgery. The routine sequences obtained for the planning MRI are standard of care. The advanced MRI sequences may or may not be additional as some have already been adopted into the standard of care imaging at MSKCC.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

To assess the utility of baseline advanced MRI & changes between baseline & follow up advanced MRI in predicting high risk areas that are likely to develop progressive glioma despite chemoradiotherapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures

To compare radiation therapy simulations in patients with gliomas using conventional and baseline advanced MRI data.
feasibility of 2HG spectroscopy

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The researchers think that the use of advanced MR imaging may help people with this disease, because it may better predict areas within a malignant glioma (brain tumor) that are at a high risk of recurring. WeThe reserchers are doing this study to see whether this advanced imaging is a safe treatment that causes few or mild side effects in people with brain tumors.

Arm Title
MRI
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
The advanced MRI studies will be obtained at the time of the routinely scheduled preoperative planning MRI and/or the routinely scheduled pre-RT planning MRI at approximately 3±2 weeks after surgery. The routine sequences obtained for the planning MRI are standard of care. The advanced MRI sequences may or may not be additional as some have already been adopted into the standard of care imaging at MSKCC.
Intervention Type
Procedure
Intervention Name(s)
MRI and advanced MRI sequences
Intervention Description
This is a nonrandomized study in which each patient will receive the standard clinical care (in the form of surgery, radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy), as per the treating physician. Surgical resection will be performed at the discretion of the treating Neurooncologist and/or Neurooncology Tumor Board. Advanced brain MRIs with the 2 (or, in some cases, 3) special sequences will be obtained at the time of the clinically scheduled contrast MRIs, which are usually obtained immediately prior to and 1 months±3 weeks after radiation therapy if the patient requires radiation therapy for his/her tumor. The advanced brain MRI may also be obtained before surgery for suspected or confirmed gliomas, as per the standard of care, in some patients who may or may not require radiation therapy.
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
To assess the utility of baseline advanced MRI & changes between baseline & follow up advanced MRI in predicting high risk areas that are likely to develop progressive glioma despite chemoradiotherapy.
Time Frame
1 -7 weeks before radiation treatment, about two months after treatment, and about every two months thereafter for the duration of the study.
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
To compare radiation therapy simulations in patients with gliomas using conventional and baseline advanced MRI data.
Time Frame
prior to and 1 months±3 weeks after radiation therapy.
Title
feasibility of 2HG spectroscopy
Time Frame
2 years
