The Phase II multi-center trial ACRIN 6684 conducted by the American College of Radiology Imaging Network was designed to assess tumor hypoxia in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) using [18F] Fluoromisonidazole (FMISO)-PET and MRI. Data from magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) were available on 17 participants from four sites. The MRS marker of tumor burden (NAA/Cho) was a significant predictor of one-year survival (OS-1). Furthermore, the MRS marker of tumor hypoxia (Lac/Cr) was a significant predictor of six-month progression-free-survival (PFS-6) using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.
