Study summary

As a new dual receptor (integrin αvβ3 and FAP) targeting PET radiotracer, 68Ga-FAPI-RGD is promising as an excellent imaging agent applicable to various cancers. In this research, we investigate the safety, biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of 68Ga-FAPI-RGD in healthy volunteers. Moreover, we evaluate the potential usefulness of 68Ga-FAPI-RGD positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of primary and metastatic lesions in various types of cancer, and compared with 18F-FDG PET/CT.

As a new dual receptor (integrin αvβ3 and FAP) targeting PET radiotracer, 68Ga-FAPI-RGD is promising as an excellent imaging agent applicable to various cancers. In this research, we investigate the safety, biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of 68Ga-FAPI-RGD in healthy volunteers. Moreover, Subjects with various types of cancer underwent contemporaneous 68Ga-FAPI-RGD and 18F-FDG PET/CT either for an initial assessment or for recurrence detection. Tumor uptake was quantified by the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax). The numbers of positive tumor lesions of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI-RGD PET/CT were recorded by visual interpretation. The diagnostic accuracy of 68Ga-FAPI-RGD were calculated and compared to 18F-FDG PET/CT.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    68Ga-FAPI-RGD

    Each subject receives a single intravenous injection of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI-RGD, and undergo PET/CT imaging within the specified time.

    Diagnostic Test: 18F-FDG PET/CT, 68Ga-FAPI-RGD PET/CT

Interventions

  • Diagnostic test18F-FDG PET/CT, 68Ga-FAPI-RGD PET/CT

    Each subject receives a single intravenous injection of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAP-RGD, and undergo PET/CT imaging within the specified time. A part of participants will undergo additional 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT for comparison.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Diagnostic efficacy

    The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI-RGD PET/CT were calculated and compared to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy.

    Time frame: 30 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of lesions

    The numbers of positive primary and metastatic lesions of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI-RGD PET/CT were recorded by visual interpretation.

    Time frame: 30 days

  2. SUV

    Standardized uptake value (SUV) of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI-RGD PET/CT for each target lesion of subject or suspected primary tumor or/and metastasis.

    Time frame: 7 days
