Evaluation of Regional Myocardial Perfusion, Glucose Utilization and Oxidative Metabolism in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension Using Combined [11C]Acetate and [18F]Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT and Cardiovascular MRI
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating 11C-acetate, [18F]Fluoro-2-deoxy-2-D-glucose, and 1 other intervention for Pulmonary Hypertension. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study is looking at differences in metabolism and functional imaging between pulmonary hypertension subjects with normal right ventricular function and persistent right ventricular dysfunction.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
For each PET/CT imaging session subjects will receive a 15-25 millicurie intravenous injection of 11C-acetate
For each PET/CT imaging session subjects will receive a 10 millicurie injection of 18F-FDG
Cardiac MRI is performed at 6 months to measure any change in structure and function of the treatment groups.
