Brief Summary

This study investigates fluorine-18-AlphaVBeta6-BP (\[18F\]-αvβ6-BP) as a Positron Emission (PET) imaging agent in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases. Investigators hypothesize that \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/Computed Tomography (CT) is a sensitive tool for disease assessment in patients with metastatic NSCLC, including those with brain metastases.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT for detecting metastases in patients with NSCLC.

OUTLINE:

Patients will undergo \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT at baseline in addition to standard-of-care \[18F\]-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) PET/CT body and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Patients will then undergo standard-of-care cancer directed therapy. Patients will be re-staged 8-12 weeks later at the next standard-of-care imaging time point with \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT, \[18F\]-FDG PET/CT, and MRI.

Arm && Interventions
GroupInterventionDescription
Experimental [18F]-αvβ6-BP[18F]-αvβ6-BPPatients receive \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP BP IV and then undergo a PET/CT scan over 30 minutes 60 minutes post-injection.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
[18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging compared to immunohistochemistryUp to six months

Standard uptake value (SUV) values from \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT will be compared to immunohistochemistry (IHC) αvβ6 staining of archival tissue to assess the sensitivity of \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT to detect αvβ6 positive metastasis in NSCLC

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Comparison of standard-of-care MRI brain and [18F]-FDG PET/CT and [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging post treatmentUp to six months

Lesion response will be assessed based on standard-of-care MRI images, \[18F\]-FDG PET/CT and \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT post treatment.

Comparison of standard-of-care [18F]-FDG PET/CT and [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imagingUp to six months

SUVmax values obtained during standard-of-care FDG/PET will be compared to SUVmax values obtained from \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging

Comparison of standard-of-care MRI and [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imagingUp to six months

Detection of lesions with \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP will be compared to the number of lesions identified during standard-of-care MRI imaging
