Zusammenfassung

Wir beschreiben das Studienprotokoll einer prospektiven, multizentrischen Studie zum Stellenwert der 18F-FET-PET in der Nachsorge von Hirntumoren im Kindes- und Jugendalter. Das Hauptziel dieser Studie ist die Evaluierung der Wertigkeit der 18F-FET-PET im Vergleich zur MRT zum Resttumor-/Rezidivnachweis nach einer „first line“-Therapie bei Kindern und Jugendlichen mit ZNS-Tumoren. Insgesamt 160 pädiatrische Patienten sollen eingeschlossen werden. Die Gesamtdauer der Studie wird 3 Jahre betragen.

Summary

We present a study concept of a prospective, multicentre trial on the value of 18F-FET PET in the post-therapeutic evaluation of childhood brain tumors (FET PET 2010). The main objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of 18F-FET PET in comparison to the MRI in differentiating residual tumor/recurrence from therapy-related changes in pediatric brain tumors after first line therapy. 160 patients will be recruited in this German multicenter study. Duration of study will be 3 years for all patients.
