Study summary

Cholecystokinin-2 (CCK2) receptor is overexpressed in more than 90% of MTC cases, and preclinical studies have shown that 68Ga-MGS5 (targeting CCK2) has good stability in vivo and is promising for diagnosis and staging of MTC. This prospective study will compare the diagnostic effects of 68Ga-MGS5 and 68Ga-DOTATATE on MTC primary foci, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis, and explore the effect of 68Ga-MGS5 PET/CT on the clinical staging (TNM staging) of MTC.

Read the detailed description

This study was planned to enroll 20 patients with suspected MTC and MTC recurrence who attended the First Hospital of Fujian Medical University from June 2023 onwards. Each patient completed PET/CT examination within 1 week, one 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT whole-body examination and two 68Ga-MGS5 PET/CT whole-body examinations (1 hour and 2 hours after injection, respectively). CCK2 immunohistochemical staining and expression scoring of primary foci and lymph node metastases were also performed.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Patients will undergo a 68Ga-MGS5 PET/CTF and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT

    MTC Patients received 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging and a single injection of 68Ga-MGS5 and two PET/CT scans 1 hour and 2 hours after the injection within one week.

    Drug: 68Ga-MGS5

Interventions

  • Drug68Ga-MGS5

    Each patient received a single intravenous injection of 68Ga-DOTATATE (2-4 mCi) and underwent PET/CT scanning 40-60 minutes after the injection. Or receive one intravenous injection of 68Ga-MGS5 and undergo two PET/CT scans at 1 and 2 hours post-injection, respectively.

    Also known as: 68Ga-DOTATATE
