Trial summary

The purpose of the study was to conduct a pilot test of new tracers ([18F]FPRGD2 and [18F]FPPRGD2) to define normal tracer biodistribution (where the tracer goes), stability (how much metabolises), pharmacokinetics (how much stays in which organs and for how long), and radiation dosimetry (organ radiation dose).

About this study

The purpose of the study was to conduct a pilot test of new tracers ([18F]FPRGD2 and [18F]FPPRGD2) to define normal tracer biodistribution (where the tracer goes), stability (how much metabolises), pharmacokinetics (how much stays in which organs and for how long), and radiation dosimetry (organ radiation dose). Healthy volunteers provided the normal biodistribution data.

The same radiopharmaceutical was also tested in breast cancer, glioblastoma multiform (brain cancer), and lung cancer.

The tracer [18F]FPRGD2 was not evaluated in this study. The protocol title was never amended to reflect this.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Tracer Dosimetry by Organ

    Normal radiopharmaceutical biodistribution was analyzed visually to obtain dosimetry data in healthy volunteers. Organs with the highest radiation absorbed dose (dosimetry) are provided below. Dosimetry was calculated by drawing regions-of-interest around organs with visually appreciable radiopharmaceutical uptake greater than background and using organ-level internal dose assessment software from Vanderbuilt University (2003).

    Results are reported in mSv/MBq (milli-Sieverts per mega-Bequerel) which is a measurement of the mean absorbed radiation dose within an organ.

    Measured: 5 hours

  2. F18-FPPRGD2 Time-activity at Specified Timepoints

    Radiopharmaceutical pharmacokinetics describe the change in radiopharmaceutical distribution in the body (from the blood to organs, tissues, cells) over time. Radiopharmaceutical pharmacokinetics are used to determine optimal imaging time, ie, when target activity (organ or cell of interest) is greater than background activity (blood). Optimal imaging time must also be balanced with tracer bio-metabolism and radioactive decay. F18-FPPRGD2 pharmacokinetics was measured in healthy volunteers to estimate optimal imaging time. Scans were used to visually identify regions of interest (organs of F18-FPPRGD2 accumulation), and detected radiation was plotted as a measurement over time.

    Measured: 30, 60, and 90 minutes post-injection

  3. Sensitivity of F18-FPPRGD2 PET/CT in Breast Cancer

    Sensitivity is the ability of a test to correctly identify patients with the disease being investigated. In this instance, how well F18-FPPRGD2 PET/CT detects true-positive patients. Sensitivity is defined as [TP/ (TP+FN)], where TP= true positive, and FN = false negative. The outcome is reported as a percentage without dispersion. A higher percentage indicates a greater probability that a lesion identified based on scan results is cancerous, and a lower percentage indicates reduced confidence in that result.

    Measured: 3 hours

  4. Specificity of F18 FPPRGD2 PET/CT in Breast Cancer

    Specificity is the ability of a test to correctly identify patients who do not have the disease being investigated. In this instance, how well F18 FPPRGD2 PET/CT detects true-negative patients. Specificity is:

    [TN/ (TN+FP)], where TN= true negative, and FP = false positive.

    Measured: an estimated average of 3 hours

  5. Glioblastoma Primary Tumor Response Assessed by PET Scan

    Primary tumor response was assessed after 6 weeks of treatment as the change in tumor metabolism based on the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) as determined by positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Decreased SUVmax correlates to a reduction of tumor metabolism, and is considered an indicator of primary tumor response. Reduction of SUVmax was determined as the change from baseline in uptake of F-18FPPRGD2. The outcome is reported as the baseline and week 6 values, with standard deviation.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Glioblastoma Primary Tumor Response Assessed by CT Scan

    Primary tumor response was assessed after 6 weeks of treatment as the change in tumor metabolism based on the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) as determined by computed tomography (CT) scans. Decreased SUVmax correlates to a reduction of tumor metabolism, and is considered an indicator of primary tumor response. Reduction of SUVmax was determined as the change from baseline in uptake of F-18FPPRGD2. The outcome is reported as the mean difference from baseline to week 6, with standard deviation.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing F18-FPPRGD2 in people with Breast Cancer and Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer, run by Stanford University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Jan 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Tracer Dosimetry by Organ (time frame: 5 hours). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jan 2024.
