Imaging of Radiolabeled White Blood Cells in Patients With Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

March 21, 2017 updated by: Mayo Clinic

In Vivo Imaging of Effector Cells in Anti-Lymphoma Therapy

RATIONALE: Measuring the number of radiolabeled white blood cells in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma tumors may help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment, and may help the study of cancer in the future.

PURPOSE: This study is measuring radiolabeled white blood cells in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the number of indium In 111-labeled peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and indium In 111-labeled polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) trafficking into lymphoma tumors prior to therapy in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
  • Compare the number of PBMC and PMNL trafficking prior to vs after therapy in these patients.
  • Compare, preliminarily, the number of in vivo baseline (i.e., pre-therapy) trafficking of PBMCs vs PMNLs in these patients.
  • Gather important data regarding the inter- and intra-patient variability of effector cell trafficking into these tumors.
  • Assess the relationship between response at 8-12 weeks and the magnitude of baseline effector cell trafficking or the magnitude of post-rituximab effector cell trafficking in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 groups.

  • Group I: Patients receive autologous indium In 111 (^111In)-labeled peripheral blood mononuclear cells on day 0.
  • Group II: Patients receive autologous ^111In-labeled polymorphonuclear leukocytes on day 0.

In both groups, patients undergo blood collection on day 0. Patients then undergo full-body single-photon emission-computed tomography (SPECT) scan 4 hours after cell infusion and on day 2. The labeling and imaging process may be repeated after at least 1 course of anticancer treatment.

Cellular uptake is measured by reader/visual interpretation, a semiquantitative grading system, and tumor-to-background uptake ratios.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 100 patients will be accrued for this study.
