NCT02907827

Brief Summary

Patients with locally advanced melanoma are at high risk for recurrence following surgical treatment. More patients with stage IV melanoma remain in complete remission following systemic therapy. No standards have been established for the surveillance of patients at high risk for recurrence. Whole-body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and cfDNA analysis of blood are innovative imaging and laboratory investigations that may be of benefit for early detection of recurrence in this patient population.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • explorative evaluation of the use of DWMRI in the follow-up of high risk melanoma patients

    5years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • • Distant metastasis-free survival (for stage III patients only), overall survival

    5years

  • • Registration of the nature and result of salvage therapies offered at the time of detection of recurrence/progression

    5 years

  • • Explore the correlation of cfDNA measurements and the clinical or MRI based diagnosis of recurrence/progression

    5years

Study Arms (2)

stage IV melanoma CR>3years

EXPERIMENTAL

Stage IV: Complete remission for more than 3 years, confirmed by most recent CT or PET-CT imaging

Other: follow up DW MRI

Stage III Melanoma

EXPERIMENTAL

AJCC Stage III: No evidence of disease on most recent CT or PET-CT imaging

Other: follow up DW MRI

Interventions

Whole-body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and cfDNA analysis

Also known as: cfDNA
Stage III Melanomastage IV melanoma CR>3years

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically confirmed malignant melanoma;
  • AJCC Stage III: No evidence of disease on most recent CT or PET-CT imaging
  • Stage IV: Complete remission for more than 3 years, confirmed by most recent CT or PET-CT imaging

You may not qualify if:

  • Contra-indication for MRI: pacemaker, metallic foreign body in eye, recent operation with prosthetic material (\< 6weken)
  • Claustrophobia
  • Metallic devices implanted such as hip prostheses, since this can alter the imaging quality
