68Ga-NOTA Evans Blue PET/CT in Patients With Lymphatic System Related Diseases

Phase 1
Recruiting
Conditions
Positron-Emission Tomography
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05140083
Lead Sponsor
First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University
Brief Summary

To evaluate the potential usefulness of 68Ga-NOTA Evans Blue (68Ga-NEB) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of primary and efficacy assessment in lymphatic system related diseases.

Detailed Description

Subjects with lymphatic system related diseases underwent 68Ga-NEB PET/CT either for a primary diagnosis or for efficacy assessment. Anomalies were detected by visual analysis and quantitative analysis of maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax). To compare the diagnostic sensitivity of 68Ga-NEB PET/CT lymphatic imaging with other lymphatic imaging such as 99mTc-dextran for lymphatic system related diseases.

68Ga-NOTA Evans Blue PET/CT in Patients with Lymphatic System Related Diseases68Ga-NOTA Evans BlueA single dose of 37-111 Mega-Becquerel (MBq) 68Ga-NOTA Evans Blue will be injected subcutaneously. PET/CT imaging will be performed at 5-30 min post- injection. Visual and quantitative method will be used to assess the PET/CT images.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Standardized uptake value (SUV)through study completion, an average of 3 years

Standardized uptake value (SUV) of 68Ga-NEB for each target lesion of subject.

Visual analysis of lymphatic patencythrough study completion, an average of 3 years

The bilateral lymphatic description on 68Ga-NEB PET/CT and lymphatic SPECT imaging were compared. The patency of lymphatic vessels (including lymphatic disruption, dermal distribution, and so on, results are indicated by 0 and 1) are shown in two imagings were recorded respectively.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Diagnostic efficacythrough study completion, an average of 3 years

The sensitivity of 68Ga-NEB PET/CT and lymphatic SPECT imaging were calculated.
