Pharmacokinetics, Biodistribution, and Radiation Dosimetry for 89Zr-Trastuzumab in Patients with Esophagogastric Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Trastuzumab with chemotherapy improves clinical outcomes in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive esophagogastric adenocarcinoma (EGA). Despite the therapeutic benefit, responses are rarely complete, and most patients develop progression. To our knowledge, this is the first report evaluating 89Zr-trastuzumab in HER2-positive EGA; here, we evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and dosimetry 89Zr-trastuzumab. Methods: Trastuzumab was conjugated with deferoxamine and radiolabeled with 89Zr. A mean activity of 184 MBq was administered to 10 patients with metastatic HER2-positive EGA. PET imaging, whole-body probe counts, and blood draws were performed to assess pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and dosimetry. Results: No clinically significant toxicities were observed. At the end of infusion, the estimated 89Zr-trastuzumab in plasma volume was a median 102% (range, 78%-113%) of the injected dose. The median biologic half-life T1/2? was 111 h (range, 78-193 h). The median biologic whole-body retention half-life was 370 h (range, 257-578 h). PET images showed optimal tumor visualization at 5-8 d after injection. The maximum tumor SUV ranged from no to minimal uptake in 3 patients to a median of 6.8 (range, 2.9-22.7) for 20 lesions in 7 patients. Dosimetry estimates from OLINDA showed that the organs receiving the highest absorbed doses were the liver and heart wall, with median values of 1.37 and 1.12 mGy/MBq, respectively. Conclusion:89Zr-trastuzumab imaging tracer is safe and provides high-quality images in patients with HER2-positive EGA, with an optimal imaging time of 5-8 d after injection.

Project description:Targeting cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) has become an attractive goal for diagnostic imaging and therapy because they can constitute as much as 90% of a tumor mass. The serine protease fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is overexpressed selectively in CAFs, drawing interest in FAP as a stromal target. The quinoline-based FAP inhibitor (FAPI) PET tracer 68Ga-FAPI-04 has been previously shown to yield high tumor-to-background ratios (TBRs) in patients with various cancers. Recent developments toward an improved compound for therapeutic application have identified FAPI-46 as a promising agent because of an increased tumor retention time in comparison with FAPI-04. Here, we present a PET biodistribution and radiation dosimetry study of 68Ga-FAPI-46 in cancer patients. Methods: Six patients with different cancers underwent serial 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT scans at 3 time points after radiotracer injection: 10 min, 1 h, and 3 h. The source organs consisted of the kidneys, bladder, liver, heart, spleen, bone marrow, uterus, and remainder of body. OLINDA/EXM software, version 1.1, was used to fit and integrate the kinetic organ activity data to yield total-body and organ time-integrated activity coefficients and residence times and, finally, organ-absorbed doses. SUVs and TBR were generated from the contoured tumor and source-organ volumes. Spheric volumes in muscle and blood pool were also obtained for TBR (tumor SUVmax/organ SUVmean). Results: At all time points, average SUVmax was highest in the liver. Tumor and organ SUVmean decreased over time, whereas TBRs in all organs but the uterus increased. The organs with the highest effective doses were bladder wall (2.41E-03 mSv/MBq), followed by ovaries (1.15E-03 mSv/MBq) and red marrow (8.49E-04 mSv/MBq). The average effective total-body dose was 7.80E-03 mSv/MBq. Conclusion: 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT has a favorable dosimetry profile, with an estimated whole-body dose of 5.3 mSv for an administration of 200 MBq (5.4 mCi) of 68Ga-FAPI-46 (1.56 ± 0.26 mSv from the PET tracer and 3.7 mSv from 1 low-dose CT scan). The biodistribution study showed high TBRs increasing over time, suggesting high diagnostic performance and favorable tracer kinetics for potential therapeutic applications.

Project description:PurposeThe prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeted positron-emitting-tomography (PET) tracer 68Ga-PSMA-11 shows great promise in the detection of prostate cancer. However, 68Ga has several shortcomings as a radiolabel including short half-life and non-ideal energies, and this has motivated consideration of 18F-labelled analogs. 18F-PSMA-1007 was selected among several 18F-PSMA-ligand candidate compounds because it demonstrated high labelling yields, outstanding tumor uptake and fast, non-urinary background clearance. Here, we describe the properties of 18F-PSMA-1007 in human volunteers and patients.MethodsRadiation dosimetry of 18F-PSMA-1007 was determined in three healthy volunteers who underwent whole-body PET-scans and concomitant blood and urine sampling. Following this, ten patients with high-risk prostate cancer underwent 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT (1 h and 3 h p.i.) and normal organ biodistribution and tumor uptakes were examined. Eight patients underwent prostatectomy with extended pelvic lymphadenectomy. Uptake in intra-prostatic lesions and lymph node metastases were correlated with final histopathology, including PSMA immunostaining.ResultsWith an effective dose of approximately 4.4-5.5 mSv per 200-250 MBq examination, 18F-PSMA-1007 behaves similar to other PSMA-PET agents as well as to other 18F-labelled PET-tracers. In comparison to other PSMA-targeting PET-tracers, 18F-PSMA-1007 has reduced urinary clearance enabling excellent assessment of the prostate. Similar to 18F-DCFPyL and with slightly slower clearance kinetics than PSMA-11, favorable tumor-to-background ratios are observed 2-3 h after injection. In eight patients, diagnostic findings were successfully validated by histopathology. 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT detected 18 of 19 lymph node metastases in the pelvis, including nodes as small as 1 mm in diameter.Conclusion18F-PSMA-1007 performs at least comparably to 68Ga-PSMA-11, but its longer half-life combined with its superior energy characteristics and non-urinary excretion overcomes some practical limitations of 68Ga-labelled PSMA-targeted tracers.

Project description:PurposeDeoxycytidine kinase (dCK) is a rate-limiting enzyme in deoxyribonucleoside salvage, a metabolic pathway involved in the production and maintenance of a balanced pool of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) for DNA synthesis. dCK phosphorylates and therefore activates nucleoside analogs such as cytarabine, gemcitabine, decitabine, cladribine, and clofarabine that are used routinely in cancer therapy. Imaging probes that target dCK might allow stratifying patients into likely responders and nonresponders with dCK-dependent prodrugs. Here we present the biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of three fluorinated dCK substrates, (18)F-FAC, L: -(18)F-FAC, and L: -(18)F-FMAC, developed for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of dCK activity in vivo.MethodsPET studies were performed in nine healthy human volunteers, three for each probe. After a transmission scan, the radiopharmaceutical was injected intravenously and three sequential emission scans acquired from the base of the skull to mid-thigh. Regions of interest encompassing visible organs were drawn on the first PET scan and copied to the subsequent scans. Activity in target organs was determined and absorbed dose estimated with OLINDA/EXM. The standardized uptake value was calculated for various organs at different times.ResultsRenal excretion was common to all three probes. Bone marrow had higher uptake for L: -(18)F-FAC and L: -(18)F-FMAC than (18)F-FAC. Prominent liver uptake was seen in L: -(18)F-FMAC and L: -(18)F-FAC, whereas splenic activity was highest for (18)F-FAC. Muscle uptake was also highest for (18)F-FAC. The critical organ was the bladder wall for all three probes. The effective dose was 0.00524, 0.00755, and 0.00910 mSv/MBq for (18)F-FAC, L: -(18)F-FAC, and L: -(18)F-FMAC, respectively.ConclusionThe biodistribution of (18)F-FAC, L: -(18)F-FAC, and L: -(18)F-FMAC in humans reveals similarities and differences. Differences may be explained by different probe affinities for nucleoside transporters, dCK, and catabolic enzymes such as cytidine deaminase (CDA). Dosimetry demonstrates that all three probes can be used safely to image the deoxyribonucleoside salvage pathway in humans.

Project description:Purpose[18F]3F4AP is a novel PET radiotracer that targets voltage-gated potassium (K+) channels and has shown promise for imaging demyelinated lesions in animal models of neurological diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the biodistribution, safety, and radiation dosimetry of [18F]3F4AP in healthy human volunteers.MethodsFour healthy volunteers (2 females) underwent a 4-h dynamic PET scan from the cranial vertex to mid-thigh using multiple bed positions after administration of 368 ± 17.9 MBq (9.94 ± 0.48 mCi) of [18F]3F4AP. Volumes of interest for relevant organs were manually drawn guided by the CT, and PET images and time-activity curves (TACs) were extracted. Radiation dosimetry was estimated from the integrated TACs using OLINDA software. Safety assessments included measuring vital signs immediately before and after the scan, monitoring for adverse events, and obtaining a comprehensive metabolic panel and electrocardiogram within 30 days before and after the scan.Results[18F]3F4AP distributed throughout the body with the highest levels of activity in the kidneys, urinary bladder, stomach, liver, spleen, and brain and with low accumulation in muscle and fat. The tracer cleared quickly from circulation and from most organs. The clearance of the tracer was noticeably faster than previously reported in nonhuman primates (NHPs). The average effective dose (ED) across all subjects was 12.1 ± 2.2 μSv/MBq, which is lower than the estimated ED from the NHP studies (21.6 ± 0.6 μSv/MBq) as well as the ED of other fluorine-18 radiotracers such as [18F]FDG (~ 20 μSv/MBq). No differences in ED between males and females were observed. No substantial changes in safety assessments or adverse events were recorded.ConclusionThe biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of [18F]3F4AP in humans are reported for the first time. The average total ED across four subjects was lower than most 18F-labeled PET tracers. The tracer and study procedures were well tolerated, and no adverse events occurred.
