Detailed Description

This study is design to prospectively investigate the safety and efficacy of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 in the early diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The specific objectives are the determination of pharmacokinetics, dosimetry, tolerance and tumor detection rate of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 in patient with PDAC. Neurotensin receptor 1 (NTR-1) is the high affinity receptor of Neurotensin (NT), which was found abnormal expression in the early stages of PDAC malignant cell transformation. 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 as a new NTR-1 targeted probe was prepared and showed good uptake on PDAC cell line and animal studies. The study intends to recruit 6 PDAC volunteers to participate in the experiment. Patients were evaluated with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG). And then all patients underwent a single-injection with 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3, dual-modality imaging protocol consisting of a PET/CT and subsequent PET/MR scan. The follow-up period was followed up to assess safety and effectiveness.

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.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Experimental: 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3
Subjects will undergo PET imaging using 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3.
Radiation: 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3
In this study, all patients will receive one injection of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3, a PET radiopharmaceutical selective for neurotensin receptor 1 (NTR-1). For the injection, subjects will receive a target dose of 2-4 MBq per kg of body weight as a bolus injection. 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 injection will be followed by a 10 ml saline flush.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis and staging
Time Frame: 3 years
The presence of non-physiological uptake or uptake in a tissue structure can be considered pathological. The signal intensity of PET indicates the presence and density of NTR-1 in the tissue. The lesion intake is higher than the liver and is classified as clearly positive. The lesion and the surrounding normal tissue ROI, measure the SUV, and calculate the T/B ratio.
3 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
NTR-1 receptor expression by histology compared to tracer uptake
Time Frame: 3 years
Pathological detection of NTR-1 receptor expression in patients' lesions and compared to tracer uptake by PET/CT/MR.
3 years
Safety and Tolerability Profile Measured by Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame: 3 years
Safety and tolerability profile for the administration of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 and positron emission tomography (PET) scanning are measured by number of participants with adverse events (AEs).
