April 6, 2017 updated by: Peking Union Medical College Hospital

Radiation Dosimetry, Plasma Pharmacokinetics, Biodistribution, Safety and Diagnostic Performance of 68Ga-NEB in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Hepatic Space-occupying Lesions and Suspicious Lymph Nodes Metastasis

This is an open-label whole-body PET/CT study for investigation of radiation dosimetry, plasma pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, safety and diagnostic performance of 68Ga-NEB in healthy volunteers and patients with suspected infection. Changes of routine blood and urine tests and any adverse events will be collected from the volunteers. Adverse events will also be observed in the patients.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The labeling of albumin has advantages as drawing blood is unnecessary and the operator labeling is not exposed to potentially infectious material. Evans blue (EB) dye has high affinity for serum albumin, The final obtained products NEB (a NOTA conjugate of a truncated form of Evans blue for in vivo albumin labeling) was proceeded strict quality controls.

No fasting, hydration or other specific preparation was requested on the day of imaging.

Patients for blood pool imaging underwent whole-body PET/CT acquisitions 30-45 min after intravenous injection of 111-148 MBq (3-4 mCi) 68Ga-NEB with each bed position lasted for 2 min and a standard routine 18F-FDG PET/CT within one week.

Patients for lymph node imaging including the breast nodules patients underwent a standard routine 18F-FDG PET/CT first, and were locally injected 10~20MBq 68Ga-NEB, followed by dynamic chest regional PET acquisitions.

A Siemens MMWP workstation was used for post-processing. Visual analysis was used to determine the general biodistribution and the temporal and intersubject stability. Semiquantitative methods were applied for image analysis.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Must be able to provide a written informed consent
  • Males and females, ≥18 years old；
  • Diagnostic CT or MRI suggesting a diagnosis of liver focal lesion(s). In suspicion of arteriovenous malformations. Newly diagnosed breast cancer and lymph node metastasis is not clear. The tumor will be surgically removed and histological diagnosis will be available. Evaluation of cardiac function.

Exclusion Criteria:
