Integrin α6-targeted SPECT Imaging of Breast Cancer

Early Phase 1

Conditions
Breast Cancer

Registration Number
NCT04289532
Lead Sponsor
Peking University
Brief Summary

A novel radiotracer 99mTc-RWY targeting Integrin α6 was developed, and the pilot first-in-human study for SPECT imaging of breast cancer was performed in seven healthy volunteers and two breast cancer patients to assess the safety and potential clinical applications of 99mTc-RWY.

Detailed Description

Integrin α6 associates with the survival and migration of breast cancer cells, which emerges as a predictor of reduced overall survival and worse prognosis. In this study, we developed an integrin α6-targeted radiotracer 99mTc-RWY for SPECT imaging of breast cancer. The safety, biodistribution and radiation dosimetry were studied in seven healthy volunteers, and the clinical potential of 99mTc-RWY was examined in two breast cancer patients. A single dose of 11.1 MBq/kg 99mTc-RWY was injected intravenously. Visual and semiquantitative methods were used to assess the SPECT/CT images. The routine Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining were subsequently carried out to confirm the Integrin α6 expression of tumors.
