Correlation Between Uptake of ¹⁸F-FDG During PET/CT and Ki-67 Expression in Patients Newly Diagnosed With Multiple Myeloma Having Extramedullary Involvement.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship of prognosis of patients with multiple myeloma having extramedullary involvement (EMM) with the ¹⁸F- fluorodeoxyglucose(18F-FDG) maximum standardized uptake value and the expression of Ki-67 in biopsy samples. Sixty-five patients were newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma presenting with EMM at our hospital from January 2005 to January 2015. Of these 65 patients, 20 were enrolled in this study. Over the last decade, both the maximum standardized uptake value and Ki-67 expression in these extramedullary lesions significantly correlated with progression-free survival, respectively ( P= .039, P =.009). After combining-the maximum standardized uptake value and the Ki-67 expression as an integral-there was a significant correlation between both the overall survival ( P = .027) and progression-free survival ( P= .014). Patients have poor outcomes when EMM is detected at presentation. Both the maximum standardized uptake value and Ki-67 expression could aid in accurately evaluating EMM patient prognosis.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a debilitating neoplasm of terminally differentiated plasma B cells that resulted in over 13,000 deaths in 2017 alone. Combination therapies involving melphalan, a small-molecule DNA alkylating agent, are commonly prescribed to patients with relapsed or refractory MM, necessitating the stratification of responding patients to minimize toxicities and improve quality of life. Here, we evaluated the use of 3,4-dihydroxy-6-18F-fluoro-l-phenylalanine (18F-FDOPA), a clinically available PET radiotracer with specificity to the L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1), which also mediates melphalan uptake, for imaging melphalan therapy response in a preclinical immunocompetent model of MM. Methods: C57BL/KaLwRij mice were implanted subcutaneously with unilateral murine green fluorescent protein-expressing 5TGM1 tumors and divided into 3 independent groups: untreated, treated beginning week 2 after tumor implantation, and treated beginning week 3 after tumor implantation. The untreated and week 2 treated groups were imaged with preclinical MRI and dynamic 18F-FDG and 18F-FDOPA PET/CT at week 4 on separate, contiguous days, whereas the week 3 treated group was longitudinally imaged weekly for 3 wk. Metabolic tumor volume, total lesion avidity, SUVmax, and total uptake were calculated for both tracers. Immunohistochemistry was performed on representative tissue from all groups for LAT1 and glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) expression. Results: Melphalan therapy induced a statistically significant reduction in lesion avidity and uptake for both 18F-FDG and 18F-FDOPA. There was no visible effect on GLUT1 expression, but LAT1 density increased in the week 2 treated group. Longitudinal imaging of the week 3 treated group showed variable changes in 18F-FDG and 18F-FDOPA uptake, with an increase in 18F-FDOPA lesion avidity in the second week relative to baseline. LAT1 and GLUT1 surface density in the untreated and week 3 treated groups were qualitatively similar. Conclusion: 18F-FDOPA PET/CT complemented 18F-FDG PET/CT in imaging melphalan therapy response in preclinical extramedullary MM. 18F-FDOPA uptake was linked to LAT1 expression and melphalan response, with longitudinal imaging suggesting stabilization of LAT1 levels and melphalan tumor cytotoxicity. Future work will explore additional MM cell lines with heterogeneous LAT1 expression and response to melphalan therapy.

Project description:ObjectiveIt is unclear whether the receptor status of breast malignancy or the proportion of receptors expression is useful in the interpretation of 18F-FDG PET/CT. This study's purpose was to analyze whether 18F-FDG PET/CT was valuable for helping newly diagnosed breast cancer patients find suspected or unsuspected metastasis lesions based on the proportion of receptors expression.Materials and methodsEighty newly diagnosed breast cancer patients were divided into six groups, containing N0 (no extraaxillary lymph node metastasis), N1 (extraaxillary lymph node metastasis), M0 (no distant metastasis), and M1 (distant metastasis) groups, C0 (no unsuspected metastasis), and C1 (unsuspected metastasis and treatment plan changed) detected by PET/CT. The main data, including the proportion of receptors ER (estrogen receptor), PR (progesterone receptor), and Her-2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) status, were extracted. Simple correlation and logistic regression were preformed to analyze the association between them.ResultsPatients in N1 group had lower proportion of ER (%) and PR (%) than that in N0 group (ER: 2 [0-80] vs. 80 [15-95]; PR: 1 [0-10] vs. 20 [0-45], p<0.001). Moreover, the proportions of ER and PR were negatively correlated with N1 (ER: [r= -0.339, p= 0.002], PR: [r= -0.247, p= 0.011]) by simple correlation. Also, patients in C1 group had lower proportion of ER (%) and PR (%) than those in C0 group (ER: 10 [0-85] vs. 80 [15-90], p=0.026; PR: 1 [0-10] vs. 20 [0-70], p=0.041), while the distribution of ER and PR between M1 and M0 group had no significant difference. After the adjustment of traditional factors, the negative correlation between the proportion of ER (OR=0.986, 95% CI of OR [0.972-0.999], p=0.016) and C1 was found by logistic regression, cutoff value was 25% (ER) calculated by ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curve (AUC [Area Under Curve]= 0.647, p=0.024).ConclusionThe proportion of ER in newly diagnosed breast cancer was negatively correlated with unsuspected metastasis detected by 18F-FDG PET/CT. 18F-FDG PET/CT might be recommended for newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with single lesions when the ER expression proportion is less than 25% to find unsuspected metastasis lesions and to modify treatment plan contrasted with conventional imaging and clinical examination.
