Study of the Kinetics, Dosimetry and Safety of [18F]F-AraG, a Positron Emission Tomography Tracer for Imaging the Activation of the Immune System in Healthy Humans

The goal of this study is to visualize biodistribution of a PET tracer called [18F]F-AraG through time in healthy human volunteers.

Detailed Description

A positron emission tomography (PET) imaging tracer will be intravenously injected into healthy human volunteers who provide informed consent. Following injection of this tracer each volunteer will have four whole-body PET scans inside a PET scanner to obtain images of tracer biodistribution at four different time points. This will allow studying the kinetics of the tracer as well analysis of tracer dosimetry. Safety of the tracer will also be analyzed in each volunteer.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Visualize biodistribution of the PET tracer [18F]F-AraG
Time Frame: 1 day
Whole-body [18F]F-AraG PET scans will be performed at 4 different time points following intravenous injection of the PET tracer. Four whole-body images will be obtained that will reveal biodistribution of [18F]F-AraG at 4 different consecutive time points after intravenous injection.
1 day
Analyze human dosimetry of [18F]F-AraG
Time Frame: 1 day
Time-Activity curves will be graphed by measuring activity in various organs at the 4 time points after tracer injection. From these time activity curves absorbed radiation will be calculated.
1 day
Assess acute safety of intravenously injected trace dose of [18F]F-AraG
Time Frame: 8 days
Blood and urine samples may be collected at baseline and at 1 and 8 days after injection of [18F]F-AraG to perform metabolic panel, CBC and urine analysis. Vital signs and EKG will be measured and recorded at baseline, within 3 hours after tracer injection and at 1 and 8 days after tracer injection.
