Official title
Non-Invasive Assessment of Skeletal Muscle Loss in Cancer Patients - Phase 2
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The overall aim of this research is to develop a non-invasive approach to evaluate the production of 3-methylhistidine (3MH)in cancer patients, as a potential means of determining which patients are at high risk for future development of cancer induced skeletal muscle atrophy. Rationale: The approach is based on the hypothesis that after an oral dose of deuterated 3-methylhistidine (D-3MH), the slope of the terminal portion of the decay curve (\> 12 hours post-dosing) for the tracer/tracee (D-3MH/3MH) in the free 3MH pool is proportional to the rate constant for myofibrillar protein degradation and can be determined from spot urine samples.
