About this study
Official title: PET Imaging Study of 68Ga-FAPI-46 Biodistribution in Cancer Patients
This phase I trial is evaluating a new imaging tracer (68Ga-FAPi-46) with positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to determine where and to which degree the tracer (68Ga-FAPi-46) accumulates in normal and cancer tissues (the biodistribution) in patients with solid tumors or hematologic (blood) cancers. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this research, 68Ga-FAPi-46. Because some cancers take up 68Ga-FAPi-46, it can be seen with PET. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse the body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in a patient's body. Combining a PET scan with a CT scan can help make the image easier to interpret. PET/CT scans are hybrid scanners that combine both modalities into a single scan during the same examination.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
- To define the biodistribution of gallium Ga 68 FAPi-46 (68Ga-FAPi-46) in normal and cancer tissues of patients with various malignancies measured by standardized uptake values (SUV).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
- To assess the 68Ga-FAPI-46 biodistribution correlation with fludeoxyglucose F-18 (18F-FDG) biodistribution and to define the frequency of the following phenotypes (FAP+/ FDG+, FAP-/ FDG+, FAP+/ FDG-, FAP-/ FDG-).
OUTLINE:
Patients receive 68Ga-FAPi-46 intravenously (IV) and then, 20-90 minutes later, undergo PET/CT over 20-50 minutes. Patients may undergo optional 18F-FDG PET/CT on study.
- Conditions
- Anal Carcinoma, Bladder Carcinoma, Breast Carcinoma, Cervical Carcinoma, Cholangiocarcinoma, Colorectal Carcinoma
- Being tested
- Computed Tomography, Fludeoxyglucose F-18, Gallium Ga 68 FAPi-46, Positron Emission Tomography
- Medical subject headings
- Anus Neoplasms, Urinary Bladder Neoplasms, Breast Neoplasms, Uterine Cervical Neoplasms, Cholangiocarcinoma, Colorectal Neoplasms, Esophageal Neoplasms, Stomach Neoplasms

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Biodistribution of gallium Ga 68 FAPi-46 (68Ga-FAPi-46)
Will be evaluated in normal and cancer tissues by standardized uptake values to determine where and to which degree 68Ga-FAPi-46 accumulates in normal and cancer tissues.
Measured: Up to 2 years
Secondary outcomes (1)
Fludeoxyglucose F-18 (18F-FDG) biodistribution
Will assess the correlation between 68Ga-FAPi-46 biodistribution and 18F-FDG biodistribution and define the frequency of the following phenotypes: 68Ga-FAPi-46 (FAP)+/fludeoxyglucose F-18 (FDG)+, FAP-/FDG+, FAP+/FDG-, FAP-/FDG-.
Measured: Up to 2 years
