Project description:Fluorine-18-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) is widely used as positron-emission-tomography (PET) radiotracer for the detection and staging of human cancer. Tumor uptake of FDG varies substantially between different cancer types and between patients with the same tumor type. The molecular basis for this heterogeneity is unknown. Using cancer cell lines and primary human tumors of distinct histologic origins, we here show that increased FDG uptake is universally associated with coordinate upregulation of genes within the glycolysis, pentose-phosphate, and other related metabolic pathways. In primary human breast cancers, this FDG signature shows significant overlap with established breast cancer signatures for the “basal-like” disease subtype and “poor prognosis”. FDG high breast cancer showed significantly more gene copy number alterations genome wide than FDG low cancers. About 50 % of primary breast cancers with high FDG uptake and FDG gene expression signature show DNA copy gain encompassing the c-myc gene locus and express gene sets regulated by the transcription factor MYC. Our data shows that FDG-PET marks a distinct subset of “basal-like” human breast cancer which is characterized by MYC and prognostically unfavorable gene expression signatures, suggesting that FDG-PET imaging may be useful to risk-stratify patients with locally advanced breast cancer.

Project description:The standardized uptake value (SUV), an indicator of the glucose uptake degree in 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), has been used as a prognostic factor in malignant tumors. We aimed to identify a signature reflecting prognostic SUV characteristics in breast cancer (BRC). Transcriptome profiling was performed to identify a signature associated with the SUV in BRC patients who underwent preoperative FDG-PET. We defined a signature consisting of 723 genes significantly correlated with the SUV (|r| > .35; P < .001). The patient subgroups classified by the signature were significantly similar to those classified by the SUV (odds ratio, 8.02; 95% CI, 2.45 to 29.3; P < 0.001). The SUV signature showed independent clinical utility for predicting BRC prognosis (hazard ratio, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.11 to 1.42; P < 0.001). Integrative analysis demonstrated a significance of the signature in predicting the response to immunotherapy and revealed that a signaling axis defined by TP53-FOXM1 and its downstream effectors in glycolysis-gluconeogenesis, including LDHA, might be important mediators in the FDG-PET process. Our results reveal characteristics of glucose uptake captured by FDG-PET, supporting an understanding of glucose metabolism as well as poor prognosis in BRC patients with a high SUV.

Project description:The standardized uptake value (SUV), an indicator of the glucose uptake degree in 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), has been used as a prognostic factor in malignant tumors. We aimed to identify a signature reflecting prognostic SUV characteristics in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Transcriptome profiling was performed to identify a signature associated with the SUV in TNBC patients who underwent preoperative FDG-PET. We defined a signature significantly associated with the SUV (|r| > .35; P < .01). The SUV signature showed independent clinical utility for predicting BRC prognosis.

Our general strategy to identify molecular determinants of FDG-retention through a genome-wide approach consisted of FDG uptake measurements in cancer cell lines and primary human tumors, the selection of samples with particularly high versus low FDG-retention, and subsequent pathway-based analysis of RNA expression data collected from these samples. Cell line RNA was extracted from a 10 cm plate seeded simultaneously and at the same density as the wells for FDG-uptake assays. For primary human tumor samples, RNA was extracted from macrodissected frozen tumor tissue. All cell line RNA samples and the astrocytoma RNA aliquots were hybridized to Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. All primary breast cancer RNA samples were hybridized to Affymetrix U133A arrays.

Project description:Background Sunitinib is a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of diverse cancers. Despite widespread clinical approval the associated cardiovascular toxicity sequelae are of concern; high grade toxicities may lead to dose reduction, interruption or discontinuation. Thus, an effective strategy for the early detection of cardiac damage in the context of sunitinib treatment is warranted. Although yet to be fully elucidated, molecular pathways and kinases implicate include those related to cardiac energy metabolism. We hypothesised that plasticity in cardiac metabolism could represent a novel early marker of cardiotoxicity. Methods and Results Female Balb/CJ mice (n = 36) or Sprague-Dawley rat (n = 12) models were treated with sunitinib. Physiological parameters were measured. An hypothesis driven cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) approach was implemented to investigate alterations in myocardial glucose, fatty acid and oxidative metabolism. Following treatment, blood pressure increased, whilst left ventricular ejection fraction decreased in both models. Increased myocardial glucose uptake after 48 hours indicated early perturbations in glucose metabolism. Myocardial fatty acid metabolism appeared increased as a result of sunitinib treatment indicated by PET but electron microscopy revealed significantly increased storage of lipids in the myocardium. Proteomic analyses indicated that oxidative metabolism, fatty acid β-oxidation and mitochondrial dysfunction were among the top cardiac signalling pathways perturbed by sunitinib treatment. [11C]Acetate-PET data suggested a decrease in myocardial perfusion following 5 days of treatment. Conclusions Data implicates sunitinib as a mediator of compromised myocardial energy metabolism. Increased reliance on glycolysis, increases in myocardial lipid deposition and perturbed mitochondrial function may ultimately result in a fundamental energy crisis manifesting as compromised cardiac function, the long term effects of which are unknown. Our data support the utility of an hypothesis driven PET approach to monitor cardiac metabolic pathway remodelling in response to sunitinib, which may ultimately have clinical utility as a novel safety imaging biomarker strategy.

Project description:Molecular imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) using [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) has been suggested as an early, sensitive marker of tumour response to anticancer drugs by monitoring the changes in glucose metabolism in tumours. Recently, FDG-PET has shown to be highly sensitive in detecting early response in other tumours. In this study, the investigators will prospectively investigate the role of early FDG-PET (at day 7 and week 6) in outcome prediction.

Project description:Positron emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear medicine procedure based on the measurement of positron emission from radiolabelled tracer molecules. These radiotracers allow biologic processes to be measured and whole body images to be obtained which demonstrates sites of radiotracer accumulation. The most common radiotracer in use today is 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) which is a radiolabelled sugar (glucose) molecule. Imaging with 18F-FDG PET is used to determine sites of abnormal glucose metabolism and can be used to characterize and localize many types of tumours.
Cancer treatment and outcome depend largely on the accurate diagnosis and staging of disease. There is extensive data in the literature indicating the importance of FDG-PET imaging in accurately characterizing disease, as well as determining stage and sites of recurrent disease in many cancer types. For these indications, functional imaging with PET provides unique information which is not available from standard medical imaging modalities such as ultrasound, X-ray, computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
The objectives of this study are to document the safety and efficacy of 18F-FDG produced by the British Columbia Cancer Agency (BCCA) at its Tri-University Meson Facility (TRIUMF) production facility and to evaluate FDG-PET as a diagnostic and decision making tool in the management of oncology patients in British Columbia. With a population base of over 4 million people, standardized cancer treatment protocols, and evidence based guidelines for FDG-PET imaging, the BCCA is positioned to make an important contribution to defining the role of PET in the Canadian health care system.
