Scintigraphy for Prediction In Rheumatoid Intentional Therapy Tapering

Sponsor: Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to investigate whether 99mTc-maraciclatide imaging prior to biologic therapy tapering and after 3 months can predict those at risk of Rheumatoid arthritis flare. Participants undergoing routine tapering of biologic drug therapy will have 99mTc-maraciclatide imaging in addition to normal ultrasound imaging and then followed up over 12 months to assess whether an interval scan alone or in combination with the baseline scan is predictive of flare.

99mMaracticaltide imaging

7.3.1 99mTc-maraciclatide imaging This will be undertaken at baseline and optionally at 8-12 weeks. Not more than 75 µg of 99mTc-maraciclatide will be administered intravenously with an activity as close as possible to 740 MBq. Static whole-body imaging will be undertaken after a maximum of 2 hours with further dedicated views of the hands and feet. Total image acquisition time will be approximately 30 minutes. Images will be scored by quantitative and semi-quantitative methods by a blinded observer.
