Houston, Texas
This trial investigates whether hyperpolarized magnetic resonance imaging (hpMRI) can predict treatment response in patients with thyroid cancer and other malignancies of the head and neck undergoing radiation therapy and/or receiving systemic therapy before surgery. An hpMRI is like a standard MRI but involves the use of an imaging contrast agent called hyperpolarized 13-C-pyruvate. Diagnostic procedures, such as hpMRI, may predict a patient's response to treatment and may help plan the best treatment.
No Placebo Group

Trial Status:Recruiting
Trial Phase:Phase 1
Key Eligibility Criteria
Disqualifiers:Severe Claustrophobia, Implants, Cardiac Arrhythmia, Allergy, EGFR < 30, Others
42 Participants Needed
Hyperpolarized C 13 Pyruvate Imaging for Brain Cancer
Houston, Texas
This trial studies how an imaging agent, hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate, works in diagnosing glioma in patients with brain tumors. Giving hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate before an advanced imaging technique called a magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) scan may help researchers better diagnose glioma in patients with brain tumors.

MRI Monitoring for Prostate Cancer
San Francisco, California
This phase II trial studies the side how well hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate (HP C-13 pyruvate) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) works in monitoring patients with prostate cancer on active surveillance who have not received treatment. Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, may help visualize HP C-13 pyruvate uptake and breakdown in tumor cells.

Hyperpolarized MRI for Meningioma
San Francisco, California
This is a Pilot/Phase I clinical study of hyperpolarized 13C (HP 13C) pyruvate injection that includes the acquisition of magnetic resonance (MR) data performed on participants with meningioma to evaluate metabolism and aid in the non-invasive characterization of aggressive tumor behavior

Hyperpolarized MRI for Brain Tumor
San Francisco, California
This pilot trial studies the side effects of hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing participants with glioma. Diagnostic procedures, such as hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate MRI, may help find and diagnose glioma.

We started Power when my dad was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, and I struggled to help him access the latest immunotherapy. Hopefully Power makes it simpler for you to explore promising new treatments, during what is probably a difficult time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.How do clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length is 12 months.How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.Do I need to be insured to participate in a medical study ?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.What are the newest clinical trials ?
Most recently, we added Hyperpolarized MRI for Meningioma, hpMRI Scan for Thyroid Cancer and Hyperpolarized C 13 Pyruvate Imaging for Brain Cancer to the Power online platform.Popular Searches
