Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

To explore the potential efficacy of 18F-FAPI-04 PET/CT for PDAC tumour staging and compare the results with those obtained using 18F-FDG PET/CT.

Detailed Description

Accurate diagnosis and staging are crucial for selecting treatment for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The desmoplastic responses associated with PDAC are often characterised by hypometabolism. Here we investigated 18F-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (18F-FAPI-04) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in evaluation of PDAC, and compared the findings with those obtained using (18F)-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG).

Recruitment & Eligibility

Target Recruitment
62
Inclusion Criteria

patients who were suspected to have PDAC by radiological imaging patients who underwent paired 18F-FAPI-04 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT for metastasis screening, recurrence confirmation, or tumour staging patients who were willing to participate in clinical trials and signed an informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria

patients with a history of severe contrast allergy pregnant patients patients who were not pathologically diagnosed as showing PDAC.
