NCT02731521

Brief Summary

The Investigators will examine the disease specificity of 2-hydroxyglutarate in non-glioma brain lesions, and the clinical utility of 2-hydroxyglutarate, glycine and citrate in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutated gliomas and IDH wild type gliomas.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Amount of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) bio-marker in 170 patients with clinically-proven brain metastasis, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, stroke, or encephalitis using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS).

    Measuring amount of 2-hydroxygluterate (2HG) biomarker with MRS.

    1-4 scans, average over 36 months

Study Arms (1)

3 Tesla Scanning and 7 Tesla Scanning

Scanning at 3 Tesla and 7 Tesla: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)/Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) of glioma and non-glioma patients.

Device: 3 Tesla ScanningDevice: 7 Tesla Scanning

Interventions

Approximately 120 brain tumor patients 50 patients with non-glioma disease, and 5 healthy volunteers will be scanned at either 3 Tesla or 7 Tesla.

Also known as: 3T MRI/MRS
