Study Summary

It was previously shown that \[18F\]Fluorodopa (FDOPA) PET imaging results in intended management changes in 41% of brain tumor patients. However, its impact on patient outcome defined as survival, costs, and/or quality of life has not been demonstrated. Regulatory agencies require randomized trials to determine the impact of PET on patient management and outcome. In this study we hypothesize that the addition of FDOPA PET will improve patient outcome by more accurately identifying presence or absence of tumor recurrence than conventional imaging.

Primary Outcome

Imaging findings will be validated by histopathology, clinical follow-up and/or repetitive imaging. If no histopathology within 3 months is available, clinical follow-up and imaging findings will be used for validation. If within 6 months of randomization no clinical progression nor progression on other imaging modalities is found, the patient will be rated as "no disease present at time of imaging".

Interventions
