Uptake and Biodistribution of 18F-fluorocholine in Histiocytic Disorders by PET Imaging and Biopsy Measurement

Completed
Conditions
Histiocytic Disorders
Erdheim-Chester Disease
Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Interventions
Radiation: F-choline PET Scan
Device: FDG-PET
Procedure: biopsy
Registration Number
NCT02608619
Lead Sponsor
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to discover how 18F-cholineFCH distributes in the body, and see if it can distinguish active histiocytes (tumor) from inflammatory (non- tumor) cells. This tracer has the potential to give the investigators' team more information when trying to identify the tumor cells that are most important to collect with biopsy. In addition, the study will measure levels of 18F-cholineFCH in the biopsy tissue.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
percentage of patients who successfully undergo paired biopsies1 year

The overall histiocyte content will be described in each patient for each paired biopsy: there will be one biopsy that has high 18F-FCH F-choline uptake and one biopsy that has low 18F-FCH F-choline uptake.
