Biologic Association Between Metabolic Magnetic Resonance-positron Emission Tomograph (MR-PET) and Tissue Measures of Glycolysis in Brain Tumors of Infiltrating Glioblastoma Cells (NCT06059690)
Biologic Association Between Metabolic MR-PET and Tissue Measures of Glycolysis in Brain Tumors Visualization, Quantitation, and Targeting of Infiltrating Glioblastoma Cells With pH Sensitive Amine Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer Magnetic Resonance Imaging-KL2TR001882
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this project is to validate a new combined MRI and PET imaging technique as a biomarker or measure of glycolysis in brain tumors. To accomplish this, the investigators propose obtaining image-guided measures of tissue pH and biopsied tissue in tumor areas selected for bulk resection surgery. Investigators will then correlate the imaging measurements with pH, RNA expression, protein expression, and bioenergetics measurements of key glycolytic enzymes.
