Active clinical trials for "Osteoma, Osteoid"

Osteoid osteomas are painful, benign bone tumors that occur most frequently in young males between ages 10 and 20 years. The goal of the proposed study is based on the premise that MRgFUS is noninferior to CT-guided radiofrequency ablation (CTgRFA), in terms of pain reduction following treatment of osteoid osteomas, and offers possible improvements with regards to 1) post-procedural pain, 2) clinical resource utilization, 3) patient experience, and/or 4) adverse events. The data from the current study would provide clinicians important information in deciding between treatment options for ablation of osteoid osteomas.

To determine treatment safety and efficacy of MR-HIFU ablation of painful Osteoid Osteoma (OO) in children and young adults.

Ufoguide is a prospective single arm open study to assess the feasibility of a new type of HIFU system to treat bone tumors. HIFU is classically delivered by a transducer integrated in the MRI table. This study assesses a new type of approach in which the HIFU transducer is manually placed on the skin of the patient, under the assistance of optical navigation, and held in place by MR-compatible passive arms. The primary goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of heating the tumor accurately with this new HIFU system. The evaluation and monitoring of the treatment will be performed by MR thermometry. Secondary endpoints include the evaluation of clinical efficacy, quality of life and safety.

Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign osteogenic tumor occurring in children and young adults, responsible for intense bone pain, which has a tendency to spontaneously heal with mineralization of the nidus, but extremely slowly. This healing may be accelerated in patients taking NSAIDs regularly during a few years. The long delay for healing and intense pain, explain why patients are quickly directed to surgeons or specialized radiology departments for tumor ablation. But percutaneous treatment or surgical excision destruction can expose the patient to a substantial risk in terms of neurologic or joint damages, depending on the location. Bisphosphonates treatment may be an effective alternative to percutaneous treatment by accelerating the natural history of OO.

The Philips Sonalleve HIFU system is expected to be efficacious in reducing pain scores in patients with painful osteoid osteoma and other benign bone tumors, and in reducing their pain medication usage. No serious adverse effects are expected to result from this treatment.

This study looks to examine the feasibility and efficacy of using MR-HIFU to ablate Osteoid Osteoma lesions in children and young adults.

Non-invasive treatment of Osteoid osteoma using MRI guided high-intensity focused ultrasound. This study is designed as an intention-to-treat using a totally non-invasive approach for pain reduction, quality of life improvement and long-term bone restoration. Procedure is performed in a single session using limited amount of acoustic energy to target the osteoid nidus. Treatment will be performed under anesthesia (peripheral or general according to age and lesion position).

Purpose of the study: To retrospectively determine the clinical results in an unselected group of consecutive patients with osteoid osteoma treated by surgery. Materials and Methods: In 150 consecutive patients with clinical and/or radiological evidence for osteoid osteoma at any location, the clinical symptoms and imaging findings (radiographs and computed tomography (CT)) were assessed before and after surgery. There were no exclusion criteria for this study. A good response was defined as disappearance of symptoms that were manifested at presentation and were attributed to osteoid osteoma. Clinical assessment after the procedure was performed prior to discharge; within 2 weeks after the procedure; and at 3, 6, and 12 months follow-up. After 24 months, a postal questionnaire was used for assessment. Radiographic evaluation (radiographs and thin-slice CT) was performed routinely pre-operatively and one year after surgery. In case of persisting or recurring symptoms the follow-up protocol was again performed according to the initial protocol. All patients gave their informed consent both for the surgical intervention as for the use of their patient data in this retrospective study.
