About this study

Official title: Clinical Study of 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT in Diagnosis and Efficacy Evaluation of Breast Cancer

This is an open-label SPECT/CT (single photon emission computed tomography / computed tomography) study to investigate clinical study of 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT in diagnosis and efficacy evaluation of breast cancer. Diagnostic group: for patients in suspicion of breast cancer. The standard of truth for diagnosis was based on histopathologic findings after surgical removal of the tumor or a definite diagnosis from fine needle aspiration biopsy. A single dose of nearly 0.3 mCi/kg (milli-Curie/kilogram) body weight of 99mTc-3PRGD2 ( ≤ 20 µg 3PRGD2) will be intravenously injected into the patients. Visual and semiquantitative method will be used to assess the whole-body planar and lesions SPECT/CT images.

Efficacy evaluation group: for patients firstly diagnose with malignant tumors (breast cancer), and prepare to chemotherapy(including neoadjuvant chemotherapy) or radiotherapy. The standard of truth for diagnosis was based on histopathologic findings after fine needle aspiration biopsy. A single dose of nearly 0.3 mCi/kg body weight of 99mTc-3PRGD2 ( ≤ 20 µg 3PRGD2) will be intravenously injected into the patients before treatment, the second period, sixth period. Visual,semiquantitative method will be used to assess the whole-body planar and lesions SPECT/CT images. By comparing with result of the other related imaging, for instance, PET/CT (positron emission tomography/computed tomography), CT (computed tomography), MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), Doppler Ultrasound, Mammography, etc.

Read the detailed description

Integrin αvβ3 is an important member of integrin receptor family and expressed preferentially on the activated endothelial cells of angiogenesis and some types of tumor cells, but not or very low on the quiescent vessel cells and other normal cells. Therefore, the integrin αvβ3 receptor is becoming a valuable target for diagnosis and response evaluation of malignant tumors.

The tri-peptide sequence of arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) can specifically bind to the integrin αvβ3 receptor. Accordingly, a variety of radiolabeled RGD-based peptides have been developed for non-invasive imaging of integrin αvβ3 expression via single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)or positron emission tomography (PET). Among all the RGD radiotracers studied, several RGD monomers have been investigated in clinical trials, and the preliminary results demonstrated specific imaging of various types of tumors, and the tumor uptake correlated well with the level of integrin αvβ3 expression. Recently, several RGD dimeric peptides with PEG linkers have been studied. The new types of RGD peptides showed much higher in vitro integrin αvβ3-binding affinity than the single RGD tri-peptide sequence, and importantly, they exhibited significantly increased tumor uptake and improved in vivo kinetics in animal models. As a representative, 99mTc-3PRGD2 could be easily prepared and exhibited excellent in vivo behaviors in animal models. No adverse reactions are observed in animal models to date.

For the further interests in clinical trial of 99mTc-3PRGD2, an open-label SPECT/CT (single photon emission computed tomography / computed tomography) study to investigate 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT in diagnosis and efficacy evaluation of breast cancer. A single dose of nearly 0.3 mCi/kg body weight 99mTc-3PRGD2 ( ≤ 20 µg 3PRGD2) will be intravenously injected into the patients. Visual and semiquantitative method will be used to assess the whole-body planar and lesions SPECT/CT images. Adverse events will also be observed in the patients.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 99mTc-3PRGD2Radiation

    Also called 99mTc-HYNIC-3PRGD2

    Diagnostic group:For patients in suspicion of breast cancer, single intravenous bolus injection of nearly 0.3 mCi/kg body weight of 99mTc-3PRGD2 on day one of the treatment period, whole-body planar and lesions SPECT/CT to determine the accumulation of 99mTc-3PRGD2 in the tumors and the other parts of the body.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual Assessment of Breast Lesions in 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT Scan

    Visual analysis will be performed by 3 experienced nuclear medicine physicians to observe the the uptake of 99mTc-3PRGD2 on breast lesions. The visual analysis interpreter's degree of suspicion for an abnormality was recorded with use of a 3-point with the following categories: score 1, no abnormal increased uptake; score 2, mildly increased uptake; score 3, definite focal increased uptake. The lesion was considered positive as malignancy if the lesion scored as 2 or higher.

    Measured: One year

  2. Semiquantitative Assessment of Breast Lesions in 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT Scan

    The semiquantitative analysis of the standardized uptake values (SUV) of 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT was performed on breast lesion.

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Adverse events collection

    Adverse events within 5 days after the injection and scanning of the patients will be followed and assessed.

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Mammography and/or ultrasound

    Mammography and/or ultrasound will be carried out in breast cancer patients to observe the location and tumor diameter (cm).

    Measured: One year

  3. 18F-FDG PET/CT scan

    18F-FDG PET/CT will be carried out in breast cancer patients to assess the uptake of breast lesions, the axillary lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis and the standardized uptake values (SUVs) of these lesions will be measured.

    Measured: One year

  4. carbohydrate antigen 153

    The patients will be required to test level of carbohydrate antigen 153 (CA153, U/L) routinely.

    Measured: One year
