Characterizing Breast Cancer With 18F-FES PET/CT

November 4, 2022 updated by: Peking Union Medical College Hospital

A Prospective Pilot Study to Explore Performance and Efficacy of 18F-FES PET/CT in ER-positive Breast Cancer Patients

18F-fluoroestradiol (FES) is radioactive labeled estradiol, developed for in vivo visualization of estrogen receptor (ER) using positron emission tomography (PET). In this prospective study, 18F-FES PET/CT will be used to evaluate ER activity of metastatic disease and their potential sensitivity to endocrine therapy in ER-positive breast cancer.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: 18F-FES PET/CT
Inject 18F-FES and then perform PET/CT scan.
Patients with suspected metastatic ER-positive breast cancer underwent 18F-FES PET/CT after an injection of 185-222 MBq (5-6 mCi) 18F-FES to image lesions of metastatic breast cancer.
