- You have received daratumumab or another treatment targeting CD38 within the last 3 months before the study.You are able to have a standard PET scan, which involves an imaging test using a special type of sugar within 3 months of joining the study.You have another type of cancer that is currently being treated, unless it's an exception.You are allergic or have bad reactions to certain types of medications made from human proteins.You have a serious heart condition or have had a heart attack in the last year.You have been diagnosed with multiple myeloma, whether it's a new diagnosis or if it has come back. If you have multiple myeloma along with another condition called secondary amyloidosis, you can still participate.You are able to perform daily activities and self-care without much difficulty.You have had a serious infection needing antibiotics in the two weeks before the study starts.You have HIV, chronic or active hepatitis B, or active hepatitis A or C.You have certain rare blood disorders like plasma cell leukemia, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, POEMS syndrome, or primary amyloidosis.You are currently taking other cancer treatments like chemotherapy, biologic therapy, or hormonal therapy. You are also taking bone marrow stimulant medications.Your bilirubin levels are not higher than 1.5 times the normal limit.Your platelet count should be at least 50/mm^3, and you cannot have received a platelet transfusion within 7 days before joining the study.Your ALT and AST levels in the blood should not be more than 3 times the upper limit of normal.You have a history of a weak immune system since birth.You have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with very low breathing test results.You have enough infection-fighting white blood cells in your body.Your kidneys work well enough to clear creatinine at a rate of 30 milliliters per minute or more.
- Group 1: Diagnostic (Copper 64Cu-DOTA-daratumumab, PET)
- All Individual Drugs Already Approved - Therapies where all constituent drugs have already been approved are likely to have better-understood side effect profiles.
- No Placebo-Only Group - All patients enrolled in this study will receive some form of active treatment.
- Screening: It may take up to 3 Weeks to process to see if you qualify in this trial.
- Treatment: The duration you will receive the treatment varies.
- Follow Ups: You may be asked to continue sharing information regarding the trial for 6 Months after you stop receiving the treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many participants are participating in this clinical exploration?
"At this time, the study in question is not currently recruiting. It was posted on February 21st 2018 and last updated on November 22nd 2022. Those looking for additional trials may consider neoplasms or positron emission tomography studies as there are 906 and 140 such clinical trials actively seeking participants respectively."
Has the FDA sanctioned Positron Emission Tomography for medical use?
"Due to its experimental nature, the risk associated with PET is judged at a conservative level 1. This judgement reflects the lack of data present regarding both safety and efficacy in Phase 1 trials."
Are any other experiments utilizing Positron Emission Tomography currently being conducted?
"Currently, 140 Positron Emission Tomography studies are in operation. Of these, 26 have progressed to Phase 3. These trials are primarily based around Harrison, New york yet span over 5,564 locations globally."
What conditions is Positron Emission Tomography regularly used to diagnose?
"Positron Emission Tomography is the preferred method for treating biological response modifiers, but it has been observed to improve conditions such as refractory multiple myeloma, relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma and cell transplants."
Is this experiment currently enrolling participants?
"Per the details available on clinicaltrials.gov, this specific medical research is not recruiting any further patients at present. Initially posted in February 2018 and last edited in November 2022, while it has now concluded its recruitment phase; 1046 other studies are actively searching for participants presently."
