Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Written informed consent signed
  • EOC patients who are scheduled for surgery. The diagnosis of EOC should be based on the previous histological results or cytological evaluation combined with a serum CA-125 to carcinoembryonic antigen ratio>25 to confirm the primary diagnosis and exclude a nongynecologic cancer.

Who cannot join

  • Known hypersensitivity to any of the excipients of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI-04.
  • Tumor-specific treatment is necessary between the scans and surgery, e.g. adjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding women.
  • Any mental condition rendering the patient unable to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study, and/or evidence of an uncooperative attitude.

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study to Evaluate 68Ga-FAPI-04 and 18F-FDG PET/CT in Patients With Epithelial Ovarian Cancer: Compared With Histological Findings

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a tumor entity featured by frequent involvement of peritoneum, also called peritoneal carcinomatosis. It is a type of metastasis accompanied by significant cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) accumulation. Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a protein that is overexpressed on CAFs and can be non-invasively monitored by a novel radiotracer called 68Ga-FAPI-04 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). In this study, we will explore the value of 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer who are scheduled for surgical intervention. The findings of 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT will also be compared with that of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT, which is one of the most commonly used modalities in evaluating EOC, and histological findings.

Read the detailed description

Patients with epithelial ovarian cancer who are scheduled for surgical intervention will be recruited in this study. They will undergo a comparative 68Ga-FAPI-04 and 18F-FDG PET/CT study before the surgery. No tumor-specific treatment is allowed between the scan and surgery, e.g. adjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Three types of lesions will be marked based on 68Ga-FAPI-04 and 18F-FDG PET/CT findings, which is FAPI+/FDG-, FAPI-/FAPI+, and FAPI+/FDG+ lesions. The marked lesions will be explored by the surgeon, resected if possible, and compared with histological results. A fourth type of lesion will be added into the analysis if that lesion is both FAPI and FAP negative but is a histological-confirmed positive lesion.

What is being measured

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

  1. SUVmax of positive lesions

    68Ga-FAPI-04 and 18F-FDG accumulation will be determined using SUVmax

    Measured: 1 hour after tracer injection

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Histological findings

    The presence of tumor cells on resected specimen will be evaluated by pathologists. The FAP expression will be determined using immunohistochemical staining using anti-FAP antibody (Abcam).

    Measured: 60 day after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT in people with Epithelial Ovarian Cancer, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Aug 2020. 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 China. 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?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Wenjia Zhu, MD (+86 18614080164, zhuwenjia_pumc@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

SUVmax of positive lesions (time frame: 1 hour after tracer injection). 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 10 Aug 2020.
