Overview

This study intends to use a prospective, observational, self-controlled, multi-center study design to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic efficacy of 18F-FDG PET/CT and 18F-FAPI PET/MRI imaging for the evaluation of systemic fibrosis in MF patients based on the results of bone marrow pathological biopsy, and to analyze the relationship between imaging results and clinical prognosis.

Description

Myelofibrosis (MF) is a pathological process characterized by dysplasia of bone marrow fibrous tissue, clonal proliferation of potential stem cells, inflammatory changes in the bone marrow microenvironment, and extramedullary hematopoiesis. Bone marrow histopathology is the gold standard for diagnosis, but because of the invasive nature of the puncture, repeated examination is not possible to dynamically monitor the disease process. In addition, due to the focal nature of puncture biopsy, it can not accurately reflect the systemic disease. 18F-FDG PET/CT provides visual assessment of MF, but its diagnostic effectiveness decreases as MF progresses. 18F-FAPI PET/MRI characterizes fiber activation processes in a variety of diseases. This study intends to use a prospective, observational, self-controlled, multi-center study design to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic efficacy of 18F-FDG PET/CT and 18F-FAPI PET/MRI imaging for the evaluation of systemic fibrosis in MF patients based on the results of bone marrow pathological biopsy, and to analyze the relationship between imaging results and clinical prognosis.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
