Sponsor

University of Missouri-Columbia

Enrollment

20 participants

Start Date

Nov 1, 2025

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Comparison of a 7t MRI to standard of care 1.5t/3t MRI scans to determine if earlier detection of brain metastases are possible on a 7t.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria6

  • Patient must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). • Patient must have an MRI of the brain, performed within 4 weeks prior to consent, documenting no evidence of brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease.
  • Patient also must not have a history of brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease.
  • Patient must refuse PCI and agree to surveillance with brain MRI scans (1.5T/3T).
  • Patient must be ≥ 18 years of age.
  • Patient must have ECOG Performance Status of 0-2
  • Patients must be able to tolerate the 7T MRI

Exclusion Criteria4

  • Patient must not have a contraindication to an MRI, such as implanted metal devices or foreign bodies.
  • Patient must not have a contraindication to gadolinium contrast administration during MR imaging.
  • Patient must not have other metastatic malignancies requiring current active treatment.
  • Pregnant patients are excluded. Pregnancy status will be confirmed verbally.
