Differentiation of Bone Sarcomas and Osteomyelitis With Ferumoxytol-Enhanced MRI - Full Text View

Purpose

This pilot trial studies the differentiation of bone sarcomas and osteomyelitis with ferumoxytol-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Imaging procedures that allow doctors to more accurately differentiate between malignant bone sarcomas and osteomyelitis may help in diagnosing patients correctly and may result in more timely treatment.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Establish magnetic resonance (MR) imaging characteristics of bone sarcomas and osteomyelitis based on their ferumoxytol-enhancement on relatively early postcontrast T1-weighted images.

II. Establish MR imaging characteristics of bone sarcomas and osteomyelitis based on their ferumoxytol-enhancement on delayed postcontrast T2-weighted images.

III. Establish T2-weighted MR imaging characteristics of iron labeled mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) in osteonecrotic bone over time, before and after surgical core decompression and bone marrow implantation.

IV. Adding a second branch for patients who can not receive ferumoxytol but still getting the MRI exam.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive ferumoxytol intravenously (IV) and then undergo ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI up to 1 hour after infusion and up to 24 hours post-infusion.

Eligibility


Ages Eligible for Study:	8 Years to 40 Years (Child, Adult)
Genders Eligible for Study:	Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:	No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Suspected or confirmed diagnosis of a bone sarcoma or osteomyelitis
Symptomatic osteonecrosis (ON) of the femur or proximal tibia with MR signal abnormalities that involve more than 50% of the respective joint surface, but no evidence of epiphyseal collapse
There will be no gender/race-ethnic restrictions
In this pediatric & adult study, the participant or parent/guardian is consented, and the patient when a minor is given an assent form and involved in the discussion as appropriate

Exclusion Criteria:

Contraindication to MRI
Presence of metal implants
Need for sedation or anesthesia
Claustrophobia
Hemosiderosis/hemochromatosis (patients can still be included in the 2nd branch without receiving ferumoxytol)
There will be no restrictions regarding use of other investigational agents
Patients with evidence of iron overload, hemosiderosis/hemochromatosis will be excluded for the bone sarcoma study; however, they can undergo MRI exam without ferumoxytol enhancement for the ON study
History of allergic reactions to similar compounds will be obtained and patients with positive history of allergic reactions will be excluded from the study
Pregnancy or nursing patients will be excluded from the study; a pregnancy test will be done prior to the MR examination for postmenarchal teenage girls, in whom pregnancy may be possible; only patients with a negative pregnancy test will be included in the study
