Primary Endpoint
Evaluate [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46-uptake in malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT.

Overview

Brief Summary

The overall aim of the study is to evaluate Total Body (TB) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) combined with the tracer [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 for response evaluation during immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy (ICT) in patients with advanced stage malignant melanoma.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Evaluate [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46-uptake in malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT.

Evaluate [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46-uptake in malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT.

Evaluate changes in [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46-uptake in malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT during ICT.

Evaluate changes in [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46-uptake in malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT during ICT.

Compare the changes in malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT with changes on standard [18F]FDG PET/CT and clinical response during ICT.

Compare the changes in malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT with changes on standard [18F]FDG PET/CT and clinical response during ICT.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Changes in [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 uptake during ICT in healthy tissue as a predictor of potential side effects.
  • Compare changes on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT in healthy tissue with changes on standard [18F]FDG PET/CT.
  • Correlation between [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46-uptake on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT and levels of FAP activity biomarkers in serum blood samples.
  • Correlation between [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46-uptake on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT and levels of other biomarkers (e.g. ECM remodeling biomarkers) in serum blood samples.
  • Correlation between levels of biomarkers in serum blood samples and treatment outcome.
