A Study of 99m Tc Pertechnetate Produced in High Energy Cyclotron in Patients With Thyroid Scan Indication
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Prospective, open label single site study to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of Tc-99m pertechnetate produced by high energy cyclotron at CHUS.
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |

Detailed Description
The proposed clinical trial will be a prospective, case-controlled Phase I, open label, single site study. The first 10 consecutively enrolled patients will receive CYCLOTEC standard procedure thyroid imagery and an additional whole-body scans, and 20 subsequent case-matched controls, will receive GPERT and will also have additionnal whole body scan.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Cyclotec The first 10 consecutively enrolled patients will have thyroid and whole body scan with CycloTec |

generator produced Tc99m-pertechnetate 20 subsequent case-matched controls will have thyroid and whole body scan with conventional Tc99m-pertechnetate |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Biodistribution of Tc99m produced by high-energy cyclotron (CycloTec) [6 months]
Equivalence of biodistribution of Tc99m produced by high-energy cyclotron (CycloTec) will be compared to the biodistribution of the conventional Tc99m pertechnetated (Case match: 1 CycloTec patient vs. 2 conventional Tc99m-pertechnetate patients)
