An interventional study of 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT Scan in RCC, Renal Cell Cancer, sponsored by Xijing Hospital. Recruiting at 1 site in China. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 75 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-01-10.
Sponsored by Xijing Hospital · Not applicable, Interventional, and Diagnostic
This is a prospective, open-label, single-center clinical study targeting renal cell carcinoma. Sixty patients with a high clinical suspicion of renal cell carcinoma were included. Qualified subjects will undergo 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT examination. The aim is to establish the optimal imaging protocol; evaluate the distribution characteristics and correlations of physiological and pathological positive uptake, and using pathological results as the gold standard, assess the diagnostic efficacy of 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT in renal cell carcinoma.
This research process is divided into screening period, baseline period, safety visit period, and diagnostic efficacy follow-up period.
Screening period (D-7 to D-1): No more than 7 days
Screening is conducted within 7 days before the administration of 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 (D-7 to D-1). Before any study-related procedures, subjects must sign a written informed consent form. After signing the informed consent form, the following screening procedures are performed:
① Review of inclusion/exclusion criteria.
Collection of medical history, including but not limited to clinical data of the subjects and relevant auxiliary examination results (routine imaging examinations, tumor markers, biopsy results, etc.), numbering each subject and establishing a medical record.
Baseline period (drug/administration period) (D0): 1 day Subjects who meet all inclusion criteria and do not meet any exclusion criteria will receive an injection of 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 and undergo a PET/CT scan on D0. The following assessments are performed again before administration, and only after a comprehensive evaluation by the doctor are they eligible for injection.
Concomitant medications after screening visit ② Weight
Vital signs
Safety visit period (D0 to D4): 4 days
Follow-up on whether subjects have adverse reactions after administration.
② 2 hours ± 10 minutes after administration: monitoring of adverse events in subjects.
③ 1-4 days after administration: telephone follow-up to assess for delayed adverse events.
Diagnostic efficacy follow-up period (D1 to D180): 6 months Follow-up on biopsy/surgical pathology results of subjects (preferably completed within 1 month after imaging) and imaging results to confirm the diagnostic efficacy of 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT in renal cell carcinoma.
When conducting diagnostic efficacy follow-up, the following should be recorded simultaneously: concomitant medications and adverse events.
Withdrawal from study/premature termination of study
If patients do not complete the PET examination according to the process, for subjects who withdraw prematurely, the following follow-up should be completed:
① Concomitant medications
② Adverse events
In the event of any of the following situations during the study, the study may be terminated, and the competent authority should promptly report to the health department responsible for clinical research registration:
There is a violation of laws and regulations, rules;
There is a violation of ethical principles or the principles of scientific integrity;
During the study, it is found that the study drug may have serious quality defects; ④ Serious safety risks are found in clinical research;
Definition of study completion: PET imaging, result analysis, and necessary clinical follow-up of all study subjects have been completed.

- The subject or legal guardian/caregiver must voluntarily sign the informed consent form.
Ages 18 to 75 years old. Patients with suspected renal cell carcinoma based on conventional imaging studies, and who undergo 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT scanning.
Patients with suspicious lymph nodes or distant metastases detected by conventional imaging or 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT.
Willing and able to follow the study protocol.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who have received anti-tumor treatment prior to PET/CT scan. Suffer from severe other neurological diseases, or gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, liver, kidney, blood system, respiratory system, immunodeficiency and other serious diseases.
Alternative subjects have contraindications to PET/CT scanning. Including but not limited to: those who cannot tolerate repeated intravenous injections; those who may be allergic to the drug and its components (including those with a history of severe allergies or allergic reactions, especially those with allergies to the tested drug); claustrophobia.
In the past year, diagnosed with other malignant tumors; alternative subjects have undergone major surgery in the past 3 months; received experimental drug or device treatment with unclear effects or safety within the past month, or have participated in other interventional clinical trials.
Pregnant or lactating women. Patients who are lost to follow-up. Other conditions that, in the researcher's assessment, may affect the study or make the subject unsuitable for participation in the study.
This is a prospective, open-label, single-center clinical study for renal cell carcinoma. Sixty patients clinically suspected of having renal cell carcinoma and undergoing 68Ga-PSMA PET scans were included. Qualified subjects underwent 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET scans within 7 days after completing the 68Ga-PSMA PET scan. Patient medical history was collected and laboratory tests were performed before the examination, and a biopsy or surgery was performed to obtain pathological results within 1 month after the examination, followed by a 6-month follow-up. The pathological results were used as the diagnostic gold standard.
Diagnostic Test: 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT Scan
The imaging agent 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 used in this project is synthesized following the standards for radiopharmaceutical production, with reference to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (quality standards for 18F-FDG). The pH value is between 5.0 and 8.0; the radiochemical purity is not less than 95%, and the bacterial endotoxin content in each milliliter of solution is less than 15EU; the radioactive concentration is not less than 37 MBq/mL; the solvent residues comply with the regulations. Specification: 185\~1850 MBq/ml Characteristics: Clear, colorless, no visible particles. Radioactive physical half-life: 68Ga is 68 minutes. Expiry: Calculated from the time of labeling, stable for 3 half-lives. Administration method: Intravenous injection. Dosage: 0.05-0.1mCi/kg, flush with 5 mL of saline after injection. The maximum mass dose of CD70 should not exceed 240ug, and the maximum volume of administration should not exceed 5 mL.

The correlation between CD70 expression and [18F]RCCB6 uptake value
The Standardized uptake value (SUV) of \[68Ga\]RCCB6 will be calculated, and the correlation between pathological results and tumor uptake of \[68Ga\]RCCB6 will be analyzed.
Time frame: 30 days from injection of the tracer
Diagnostic value of 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT in patients with RCC
We will calculate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy of 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT in patients with RCC. We will also compare the diagnostic value of \[68Ga\]RCCB6 with \[68Ga\]PSMA. All the above goals will be achieved by analyzing the 68Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT and 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT imaging data.
Time frame: 3-6 months from injection of the tracer
Plan to share: No
Started Jun 2024 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Apr 2025, 9 months after the start.
Of 108 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Carcinoma, Renal Cell, half reached primary completion within 48 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 24 and three quarters within 128. This study's planned 9 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 115 studies reached it within 48 months; a quarter within 21 and three quarters within 128.
