Brief Summary

As an emerging molecule targeting FAP, 68Ga-FAP-CHX is promising as an excellent imaging agent applicable to various cancers. In this study, we observed the safety, biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of 68Ga-FAP-CHX in patients with various types of cancer and compared them with the results of 68Ga-FAPI-04 or 18F-FDG imaging to evaluate the dosimetric characteristics and diagnostic efficacy of 68Ga-FAP-CHX.

Detailed Description

Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is highly expressed in the stroma of a variety of human cancers and is therefore considered promising for guiding targeted therapy. The recent development of quinoline-based PET tracers that act as FAP inhibitors (FAPIs) demonstrated promising results preclinically and already in a few clinical cases. 68Ga-FAP-CHX is a novel FAP-targeted tracers. The present study aimed to evaluate the biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, and dosimetry of 68Ga-FAP-CHX, and performed a head-to-head comparison with 68Ga-FAPI-04 or 18F-FDG PET/CT scans in patients with various cancers.

GroupInterventionDescription
Part I: safety, tolerability, biodistribution and dosimetry68Ga-FAP-CHXPET imaging will begin at 30s (30s/bed), 15min (1 min/bed), 30min (2 min/bed), 60min (2 min/bed) and 120min (2 min/bed) after injection, and whole-body low-dose CT needed to be re-acquired at 120 minutes
Part II: diagnostic efficacy68Ga-FAP-CHXParticipants with various types of cancer will have PET imaging 50-100 minutes after injection of 68Ga-FAP-CHX and another agent (68Ga-FAPI-04 or 18F-FDG).
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Lesion numbersUp to 2weeks

Determination of lesion numbers of 68Ga-FAP-CHX and 68Ga-FAPI-04 or 18F-FDG

the sensitivity of 68Ga-FAP-CHX PET/CTUp to 2 weeks

compared with pathology or composite imaging, the sensitivity of 68Ga-FAP-CHX PET/CT was evaluated.

Human biodistributionFrom right after tracer injection to 2-hours post-injection

reported as relative uptake values per organ at 30s, 15min, 30min, 60min and 120 min per individual subject and as a mean over all subjects (Part I)

Human dosimetryFrom right after tracer injection to 2-hours post-injection

radiation dose to individual organs and the equivalent dose for the whole body of each subject and as a mean over all subjects (Part I). Dosimetry will be calculated using the OLINDA software.

Standard uptake value (SUV)Up to 2 weeks

Determination of SUV for detected lesions and discernible organs of 68Ga-FAP-CHX and 68Ga-FAPI-04 or 18F-FDG

the accuracy of 68Ga-FAP-CHX PET/CTUp to 2 weeks

compared with pathology or composite imaging, the accuracy of 68Ga-FAP-CHX PET/CT was evaluated.

the specificity of 68Ga-FAP-CHX PET/CTUp to 2 weeks

compared with pathology or composite imaging, the specificity of 68Ga-FAP-CHX PET/CT was evaluated.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Count of participants with treatment emergent adverse eventsUp to 3 days

The frequency and severity of treatment emergent adverse events following 68Ga-FAP-CHX injection will be descriptively reported as classified and graded by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 5.0

Expression ability of 68Ga-FAP-CHX in different types of tumorsUp to 3 days

Differentiation of SUVmax in different tumors
