Abstract
Radiation dose estimations are key for optimizing therapies. We studied the role of 124I-omburtamab (8H9) given intraventricularly in assessing the distribution and radiation doses before 131I-omburtamab therapy in patients with metastatic leptomeningeal disease and compared it with the estimates from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling. Methods: Patients with histologically proven malignancy and metastatic disease to the central nervous system or leptomeninges who met eligibility criteria for 131I-omburtamab therapy underwent immuno-PET imaging with 124I-8H9 followed by 131I-8H9 antibody therapy. Patients were imaged with approximately 74 MBq of intraventricular 124I-omburtamab via an Ommaya reservoir. Whole-body PET images were acquired at approximately 4, 24, and 48 h after administration and analyzed for dosimetry calculations. Peripheral blood and CSF samples were obtained at multiple time points for dosimetry estimation. Results: Forty-two patients with complete dosimetry and therapy data were analyzed. 124I-omburtamab PET-based radiation dosimetry estimations revealed mean (±SD) absorbed dose to the CSF for 131I-8H9 of 0.62 ± 0.40 cGy/MBq, compared with 2.22 ± 2.19 cGy/MBq based on 124I-omburtamab CSF samples and 1.53 ± 1.37 cGy/MBq based on 131I-omburtamab CSF samples. The mean absorbed dose to the blood was 0.051 ± 0.11 cGy/MBq for 124I-omburtamab samples and 0.07 ± 0.04 cGy/MBq for 131I-omburtamab samples. The effective whole-body radiation dose for 124I-omburtamab was 0.49 ± 0.27 mSv/MBq. The mean whole-body clearance half-time was 44.98 ± 16.29 h. Conclusion: PET imaging with 124I-omburtamab antibody administered intraventricularly allows for noninvasive estimation of dose to CSF and normal organs. High CSF-to-blood absorbed-dose ratios are noted, allowing for an improved therapeutic index to leptomeningeal disease and reduced systemic doses. PET imaging-based estimates were less variable and more reliable than CSF sample-based dosimetry.

Abstract
A six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of prostate-1 (STEAP1) is a newly identified target in prostate cancer. The use of radio-labeled STEAP1-targeting antibodies with positron emission tomography (PET) may allow for detection of sites of metastatic prostate cancer and may refine patient selection for antigen-directed therapies. This was a prospective study in seven patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who had at least one archival biopsy that was STEAP1-positive by immunohistochemistry. Patients received intravenous injections of ∼185 MBq and 10 mg of [89Zr]Zr-DFO-MSTP2109A, a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody directed against STEAP1. PET/CT images, blood samples, and whole-body counts were monitored longitudinally in six patients. Here, we report on safety, biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, dose estimates to normal tissues, and initial tumor targeting for this group of patients. There was no significant acute or subacute toxicity. Favorable biodistribution and enhanced lesion uptake (in both bone and soft tissue) were observed on imaging using a mass of 10 mg of DFO-MSTP2109A. The best lesion discrimination was seen at the latest imaging time, a median of 6 days postadministration. Pharmacokinetics showed a median serum T1/2 β of 198 h, volume of central compartment of 3.54 L (similar to plasma volume), and clearance of 19.7 mL/h. The median biologic T1/2 for whole-body retention was 469 h. The highest mean absorbed doses to normal organs (mGy/MBq) were 1.18, 1.11, 0.78, 0.73, and 0.71 for liver, heart wall, lung, kidney, and spleen, respectively. Excellent targeting of metastatic prostate sites in both bone and soft tissue was observed, with an optimal imaging time of 6 days postadministration. The liver and heart were the normal organs that experienced the highest absorbed doses. The pharmacokinetics were similar to other antibodies without major cross-reactivity with normal tissues. A more detailed analysis of lesion targeting in a larger patient population with correlation to immunohistology and standard imaging modalities has been reported.

Abstract
e13592 Background: Tumors metastasizing to the central nervous system (CNS) are associated with significant mortality. We tested the toxicity and dosimetry of intraventricular 131I-labeled monoclonal antibody 8H9 targeting surface glycoprotein B7-H3 in patients with primary or metastatic CNS tumors. Methods: Tumor B7-H3 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry. CSF flow was determined by 111Indium-DTPA cisternography. 131 patients received 2 mCi tracer of intra-Ommaya 124I- or 131I-8H9 for nuclear imaging followed by a therapeutic injection (10-80 mCi, dose levels 1-8 in 10 mCi increments for phase I patients; expanded cohort 50 mCi/injection) 131I-8H9. Pharmacokinetics were studied by serial CSF and blood samplings over 48 hours. Dosimetry was based on pharmacokinetics and region of interest analyses on serial PET. Toxicity was defined by the CTCAE v.3.0. 8H9 dosimetry and therapy injections were repeated after 1 month if no serious adverse events or progressive disease ensued. Tumor response was determined by clinical, radiographic, cytologic criteria; overall survival was noted. Results: 57 patients (ages 2 – 54 years, median age 11.7 years) received 158 injections Primary CNS diagnoses included medulloblastoma (n = 23), ependymoma (N = 8), chordoma (n = 1), rhabdoid tumor (n = 1), choroid plexus carcinoma (n = 3), ETMR (n = 3), glioblastoma multiforme (n = 1) , PXA (n = 1); metastatic tumors included sarcoma (n = 9), melanoma (n = 4), retinoblastoma (n = 2), and ovarian carcinoma (n = 1). Injections were well tolerated and routinely administered in the outpatient setting. Rare self-limited adverse events included grade 1 or 2 fever, headache, vomiting; 3 injections were associated with grade 3 toxicities requiring discontinuation of therapy including chemical meningitis (n = 2),and increasing communicating hydrocephalus (n = 1), Although not a dose limiting toxicity, myelosuppression occurred in patients who had received craniospinal radiation and at dose levels 6 and higher (≥60 mCi). 16 patients remain alive including patients with high-risk malignancies including choroid plexus carcinoma, ETMR, recurrent ependymoma and recurrent medulloblastoma. Conclusions: We conclude that intraventricular 131I-8H9 is safe, has favorable dosimetry to CSF, and may have clinical utility in the treatment of primary and metastatic CNS tumors. Clinical trial information: NCT00089245.

Abstract
2008 Background: Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) represents one of the most deadly central nervous system tumors of childhood with a median survival of less than 12 months. Convection-enhanced delivery (CED) has been recently hypothesized as a means for efficiently distributing therapeutic agents within the brain stem. We conducted this study to evaluate CED in children with DIPG. Methods: We performed a standard phase I dose escalation study in patients with non-progressive DIPG 4 to 14 weeks post-completion of radiation therapy. Seven dose levels of a single injection of 124I-8H9 (Omburtamab) (range 0.25 to 4.0 mCi) were studied. Results: 37 children were treated with 34 evaluable for primary and secondary endpoints. The median age at enrollment was 6.8 years old (range 3.2 - 17.9). There was no dose limiting toxicity (DLT). Among adverse events that were at least possibly related to the treatment, there were no grade 4 or 5 events, and only 4 reversible grade 3 events in 4 patients (2 hemiparesis, 1 skin infection and 1 anxiety). Estimations of distribution volumes based on T2-weighted imaging were dose dependent and ranged from 1.5 to 20.8 cm3, and for dose level 7, 10.5 - 19.0 cm3. The mean volume of distribution/volume of infusion ratio (Vd/Vi) was 3.4 ±1.1, and for dose level 7, 3.5 ± 1.0. The mean lesion absorbed dose was 33.3 ± 25.9 Gy, and for dose level 7, 50.1 ± 22.9 Gy. The mean ratio of lesion-to-whole body absorbed dose was 910. The mean volume of distribution/tumor volume ratio on dose level 7 was 82.5%, but the mean tumor overlap was 40.5%. No death occurred as a result of the treatment. Median survival was 15.3 months (n = 29, 95% CI 12.7 - 17.4). Median follow-up time of the 5 surviving patients is 27.2 months (range 11.5 - 72.4). Overall survival rate at 12 months was 64.7% (22/34, 4 alive), and overall survival rate at 24 months 14.7% (5/34, 3 alive). Conclusions: CED in the brain stem of children with DIPG who were previously irradiated is a safe therapeutic strategy. An infusion volume of 4,000 mcl appears to be a reasonable single dose for a target distribution volume but enhanced tumor coverage is likely needed. There seems to be a survival benefit using this therapeutic strategy and outcomes might be dependent on dosimetry and distribution patterns. Clinical trial information: NCT01502917.

Biodistribution and radiation dose estimates for 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 in patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 2018; 46:677-685.

Abstract
PURPOSE Somatostatin receptor antagonists have shown promise for imaging neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) in preclinical studies, but clinical data is still very limited. In this study, we assess the feasibility of using the novel somatostatin antagonist 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 for PET imaging of NETs. METHODS Twenty patients with advanced NETs underwent whole-body PET/CT imaging 60 min after injection of 169 MBq (median) 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 as part of a prospective study. Volumes of interest were drawn around up to four 68Ga-DOTA-JR11-avid lesions per patient (with uptake greater than liver) and standardized uptake values were estimated. Additionally, target-to-normal tissue ratios were calculated. A subset of six patients had additional imaging (25-min dynamic scan of the upper abdomen including, at least partly, cardiac left ventricle, liver, spleen, and kidney, and a whole-body PET/CT scan at 30 min post-injection) to determine the time course of tracer distribution and facilitate radiation dose estimates. Absorbed doses were calculated using OLINDA/EXM 1.0. RESULTS In contrast to the known biodistribution of somatostatin receptor agonists, little or no uptake above background was seen in the pituitary gland, spleen, adrenals, and uninvolved liver; e.g., median spleen SUVmean 1.4 (range: 0.7-1.8), liver SUVmean 1.1 (0.7-1.9). A total of 42 tumor lesions were analyzed with median SUVmax 13.0 (range: 2.9-94), TNR blood 9.3 (1.8-87), TNR spleen 4.9 (1.9-48), TNR kidney 2.2 (0.52-28), and TNR liver 10.5 (2.3-107). Tumor uptake reached plateau levels by 20-30 min post-injection. The highest absorbed dose estimates (mGy/MBq) to normal tissues were: urinary bladder wall (0.30; SD 0.06) and kidneys (0.050; SD 0.013). The effective dose (ICRP 103) was 0.022 (SD 0.003) mSv/MBq. CONCLUSIONS 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 demonstrated rapid tumor uptake, high tumor/background ratios, and rapid clearance from blood. The low liver background is advantageous and may facilitate detection of liver metastases. Dosimetric data compare favorably with published data for 68Ga-DOTATATE and 68Ga-DOTATOC.

Abstract
18F-fluorodihydrotestosterone (18F-FDHT) is a radiolabeled analog of the androgen receptor's primary ligand that is currently being credentialed as a biomarker for prognosis, response, and pharmacodynamic effects of new therapeutics. As part of the biomarker qualification process, we prospectively assessed its reproducibility and repeatability in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Methods: We conducted a prospective multiinstitutional study of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients undergoing 2 (test/retest) 18F-FDHT PET/CT scans on 2 consecutive days. Two independent readers evaluated all examinations and recorded SUVs, androgen receptor-positive tumor volumes, and total lesion uptake for the most avid lesion detected in each of 32 predefined anatomic regions. The relative absolute difference and reproducibility coefficient (RC) of each metric were calculated between the test and retest scans. Linear regression analyses, intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs), and Bland-Altman plots were used to evaluate repeatability of 18F-FDHT metrics. The coefficient of variation and ICC were used to assess interobserver reproducibility. Results: Twenty-seven patients with 140 18F-FDHT-avid regions were included. The best repeatability among 18F-FDHT uptake metrics was found for SUV metrics (SUVmax, SUVmean, and SUVpeak), with no significant differences in repeatability among them. Correlations between the test and retest scans were strong for all SUV metrics (R2 ≥ 0.92; ICC ≥ 0.97). The RCs of the SUV metrics ranged from 21.3% (SUVpeak) to 24.6% (SUVmax). The test and retest androgen receptor-positive tumor volumes and TLU, respectively, were highly correlated (R2 and ICC ≥ 0.97), although variability was significantly higher than that for SUV (RCs > 46.4%). The prostate-specific antigen levels, Gleason score, weight, and age did not affect repeatability, nor did total injected activity, uptake measurement time, or differences in uptake time between the 2 scans. Including the most avid lesion per patient, the 5 most avid lesions per patient, only lesions 4.2 mL or more, only lesions with an SUV of 4 g/mL or more, or normalizing of SUV to area under the parent plasma activity concentration-time curve did not significantly affect repeatability. All metrics showed high interobserver reproducibility (ICC > 0.98; coefficient of variation < 0.2%-10.8%). Conclusion: Uptake metrics derived from 18F-FDHT PET/CT show high repeatability and interobserver reproducibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma is one of the deadliest central nervous system tumours of childhood, with a median overall survival of less than 12 months. Convection-enhanced delivery has been proposed as a means to efficiently deliver therapeutic agents directly into the brainstem while minimising systemic exposure and associated toxic effects. We did this study to evaluate the safety of convection-enhanced delivery of a radioimmunotherapy agent targeting the glioma-associated B7-H3 antigen in children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. METHODS We did a phase 1, single-arm, single-centre, dose-escalation study at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY, USA). Eligible patients were aged 3-21 years and had diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma as diagnosed by consensus of a multidisciplinary paediatric neuro-oncology team; a Lansky (patients <16 years of age) or Karnofsky (patients ≥16 years) performance score of at least 50 at study entry; a minimum weight of 8 kg; and had completed external beam radiation therapy (54·0-59·4 Gy at 1·8 Gy per fraction over 30-33 fractions) at least 4 weeks but no more than 14 weeks before enrolment. Seven dose-escalation cohorts were planned based on standard 3 + 3 rules: patients received a single infusion of 9·25, 18·5, 27·75, 37, 92·5, 120·25, or 148 MBq, respectively, at a concentration of about 37 MBq/mL by convection-enhanced delivery of the radiolabelled antibody [124I]-8H9. The primary endpoint was identification of the maximum tolerated dose. The analysis of the primary endpoint was done in the per-protocol population (patients who received the full planned dose of treatment), and all patients who received any dose of study treatment were included in the safety analysis. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01502917, and is ongoing with an expanded cohort. FINDINGS From April 5, 2012, to Oct 8, 2016, 28 children were enrolled and treated in the trial, of whom 25 were evaluable for the primary endpoint. The maximum tolerated dose was not reached as no dose-limiting toxicities were observed. One (4%) of 28 patients had treatment-related transient grade 3 hemiparesis and one (4%) had grade 3 skin infection. No treatment-related grade 4 adverse events or deaths occurred. Estimated volumes of distribution (Vd) were linearly dependent on volumes of infusion (Vi) and ranged from 1·5 to 20·1 cm3, with a mean Vd/Vi ratio of 3·4 (SD 1·2). The mean lesion absorbed dose was 0·39 Gy/MBq 124I (SD 0·20). Systemic exposure was negligible, with an average lesion-to-whole body ratio of radiation absorbed dose higher than 1200. INTERPRETATION Convection-enhanced delivery in the brainstem of children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma who have previously received radiation therapy seems to be a rational and safe therapeutic strategy. PET-based dosimetry of the radiolabelled antibody [124I]-8H9 validated the principle of using convection-enhanced delivery in the brain to achieve high intra-lesional dosing with negligible systemic exposure. This therapeutic strategy warrants further development for children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma.

Abstract
Hyperpolarized (HP) MRI using [1-13C] pyruvate is a novel method that can characterize energy metabolism in the human brain and brain tumors. Here, we present the first dynamically acquired human brain HP 13C metabolic spectra and spatial metabolite maps in cases of both untreated and recurrent tumors. In vivo production of HP lactate from HP pyruvate by tumors was indicative of altered cancer metabolism, whereas production of HP lactate in the entire brain was likely due to baseline metabolism. We correlated our results with standard clinical brain MRI, MRI DCE perfusion, and in one case FDG PET/CT. Our results suggest that HP 13C pyruvate-to-lactate conversion may be a viable metabolic biomarker for assessing tumor response.Significance: Hyperpolarized pyruvate MRI enables metabolic imaging in the brain and can be a quantitative biomarker for active tumors.Graphical Abstract: http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/content/canres/78/14/3755/F1.large.jpg Cancer Res; 78(14); 3755-60. ©2018 AACR.

Abstract
Background I-124 codrituzumab (aka GC33), an antibody directed at Glypican 3, was evaluated in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Fourteen patients with HCC underwent baseline imaging with I-124 codrituzumab (~ 185 MBq, 10 mg). Seven of these patients undergoing sorafenib/immunotherapy with 2.5 or 5 mg/kg of cold codrituzumab had repeat imaging, with co-infusion of I-124 codrituzumab, as part of their immunotherapy treatment. Three patients who progressed while on sorafenib/immunotherapy were re-imaged after a 4-week washout period to assess for the presence of antigen. Serial positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and pharmacokinetics were performed following I-124 codrituzumab. An ELISA assay was used to determine “cold” codrituzumab serum pharmacokinetics and compare it to that of I-124 codrituzumab. Correlation of imaging results was performed with IHC. Short-term safety assessment was also evaluated. Results Thirteen patients had tumor localization on baseline I-124 codrituzumab; heterogeneity in tumor uptake was noted. In three patients undergoing repeat imaging while on immunotherapy/sorafenib, evidence of decreased I-124 codrituzumab uptake was noted. All three patients who underwent imaging after progression while on immunotherapy continued to have I-124 codrituzumab tumor uptake. Pharmacokinetics of I-124 codrituzumab was similar to that of other intact IgG. No significant adverse events were observed related to the I-124 codrituzumab. Conclusions I-124 codrituzumab detected tumor localization in most patients with HCC. Pharmacokinetics was similar to that of other intact iodinated humanized IgG. No visible cross-reactivity with normal organs was observed.

Abstract
Purpose To assess the clinical safety, pharmacokinetics, and tumor imaging characteristics of fluorine 18-(2S,4R)-4-fluoroglutamine (FGln), a glutamine analog radiologic imaging agent. Materials and Methods This study was approved by the institutional review board and conducted under a U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved Investigational New Drug application in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. All patients provided written informed consent. Between January 2013 and October 2016, 25 adult patients with cancer received an intravenous bolus of FGln tracer (mean, 244 MBq ± 118, <100 μg) followed by positron emission tomography (PET) and blood radioassays. Patient data were summarized with descriptive statistics. FGln biodistribution and plasma amino acid levels in nonfasting patients (n = 13) were compared with those from patients who fasted at least 8 hours before injection (n = 12) by using nonparametric one-way analysis of variance with Bonferroni correction. Tumor FGln avidity versus fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) avidity in patients with paired PET scans (n = 15) was evaluated with the Fisher exact test. P < .05 was considered indicative of a statistically significant difference. Results FGln PET depicted tumors of different cancer types (breast, pancreas, renal, neuroendocrine, lung, colon, lymphoma, bile duct, or glioma) in 17 of the 25 patients, predominantly clinically aggressive tumors with genetic mutations implicated in abnormal glutamine metabolism. Acute fasting had no significant effect on FGln biodistribution and plasma amino acid levels. FGln-avid tumors were uniformly FDG-avid but not vice versa (P = .07). Patients experienced no adverse effects. Conclusion Preliminary human FGln PET trial results provide clinical validation of abnormal glutamine metabolism as a potential tumor biomarker for targeted radiotracer imaging in several different cancer types. © RSNA, 2018 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

[PMID: 28940863 PMCID: PMC6692907 DOI: 10.1002/pbc.26754] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2017] [Revised: 07/12/2017] [Accepted: 07/18/2017] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High-risk and recurrent medulloblastoma (MB) is associated with significant mortality. The murine monoclonal antibody 3F8 targets the cell-surface disialoganglioside GD2 on MB. We tested the efficacy, toxicity, and dosimetry of compartmental radioimmunotherapy (cRIT) with intraventricular 131 I-labeled 3F8 in patients with MB on a phase II clinical trial. METHODS Patients with histopathologically confirmed high-risk or recurrent MB were eligible for cRIT. After determining adequate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow, patients received 2 mCi (where Ci is Curie) 124 I-3F8 or 131 I-3F8 with nuclear imaging for dosimetry, followed by up to four therapeutic (10 mCi/dose) 131 I-3F8 injections. Dosimetry estimates were based on serial CSF and blood samplings over 48 hr plus region-of-interest analyses on serial imaging scans. Disease evaluation included pre- and posttherapy brain/spine magnetic resonance imaging approximately every 3 months for the first year after treatment, and every 6-12 months thereafter. RESULTS Forty-three patients received a total of 167 injections; 42 patients were evaluable for outcome. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Toxicities related to drug administration included acute bradycardia with somnolence, headache, fatigue, and CSF pleocytosis consistent with chemical meningitis and dystonic reaction. Total CSF absorbed dose was 1,453 cGy (where Gy is Gray; 350.0-2,784). Median overall survival from first dose of cRIT was 24.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI]:16.3-55.8). Patients treated in radiographic and cytologic remission were at a lower risk of death compared to patients with radiographically measurable disease (hazard ratio: 0.40, 95% CI: 0.18-0.88, P = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS cRIT with 131 I-3F8 is safe, has favorable dosimetry to CSF, and when added to salvage therapy using conventional modalities, may have clinical utility in maintaining remission in high-risk or recurrent MB.

Abstract
In what we believe to be a first-in-human study, we evaluated the safety and dosimetry of 89Zr-pertuzumab PET/CT for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted imaging in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. Methods: Patients with HER2-positive breast cancer and evidence of distant metastases were enrolled in an institutional review board-approved prospective clinical trial. Pertuzumab was conjugated with deferoxamine and radiolabeled with 89Zr. Patients underwent PET/CT with 74 MBq of 89Zr-pertuzumab in a total antibody mass of 20-50 mg of pertuzumab. PET/CT, whole-body probe counts, and blood drawing were performed over 8 d to assess pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and dosimetry. PET/CT images were evaluated for the ability to visualize HER2-positive metastases. Results: Six patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer were enrolled and administered 89Zr-pertuzumab. No toxicities occurred. Dosimetry estimates from OLINDA demonstrated that the organs receiving the highest doses (mean ± SD) were the liver (1.75 ± 0.21 mGy/MBq), the kidneys (1.27 ± 0.28 mGy/MBq), and the heart wall (1.22 ± 0.16 mGy/MBq), with an average effective dose of 0.54 ± 0.07 mSv/MBq. PET/CT demonstrated optimal imaging 5-8 d after administration. 89Zr-pertuzumab was able to image multiple sites of malignancy and suggested that they were HER2-positive. In 2 patients with both known HER2-positive and HER2-negative primary breast cancers and brain metastases, 89Zr-pertuzumab PET/CT suggested that the brain metastases were HER2-positive. In 1 of the 2 patients, subsequent resection of a brain metastasis proved HER2-positive disease, confirming that the 89Zr-pertuzumab avidity was a true-positive result for HER2-positive malignancy. Conclusion: This first-in-human study demonstrated safety, dosimetry, biodistribution, and successful HER2-targeted imaging with 89Zr-pertuzumab PET/CT. Potential clinical applications include assessment of the HER2 status of lesions that may not be accessible to biopsy and assessment of HER2 heterogeneity.

Abstract
Trastuzumab with chemotherapy improves clinical outcomes in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive esophagogastric adenocarcinoma (EGA). Despite the therapeutic benefit, responses are rarely complete, and most patients develop progression. To our knowledge, this is the first report evaluating 89Zr-trastuzumab in HER2-positive EGA; here, we evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and dosimetry 89Zr-trastuzumab. Methods: Trastuzumab was conjugated with deferoxamine and radiolabeled with 89Zr. A mean activity of 184 MBq was administered to 10 patients with metastatic HER2-positive EGA. PET imaging, whole-body probe counts, and blood draws were performed to assess pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and dosimetry. Results: No clinically significant toxicities were observed. At the end of infusion, the estimated 89Zr-trastuzumab in plasma volume was a median 102% (range, 78%-113%) of the injected dose. The median biologic half-life T1/2β was 111 h (range, 78-193 h). The median biologic whole-body retention half-life was 370 h (range, 257-578 h). PET images showed optimal tumor visualization at 5-8 d after injection. The maximum tumor SUV ranged from no to minimal uptake in 3 patients to a median of 6.8 (range, 2.9-22.7) for 20 lesions in 7 patients. Dosimetry estimates from OLINDA showed that the organs receiving the highest absorbed doses were the liver and heart wall, with median values of 1.37 and 1.12 mGy/MBq, respectively. Conclusion:89Zr-trastuzumab imaging tracer is safe and provides high-quality images in patients with HER2-positive EGA, with an optimal imaging time of 5-8 d after injection.

Abstract
10545 Background: Neuroblastoma metastatic to the central nervous system (CNS NB) is associated with significant mortality (median survival < 6 months, < 10% survival at 36 months). Intraventricular compartmental radioimmunotherapy (cRIT) with radio-iodinated murine IgG1 monoclonal antibody 131I-8H9 targeting tumor cell-surface glycoprotein B7-H3 offers a therapeutic strategy. We analyzed overall survival of patients with CNS NB treated with intraventricular 131I-8H9 cRIT at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) since 2003. Methods: After radiographic and/or pathologic confirmation of CNS NB, and assessment of adequate CSF flow, cRIT eligible patients underwent treatment on an IRB-approved protocol with either temozolomide/irinotecan-based CNS salvage regimen incorporating craniospinal radiation therapy, 131I-8H9 cRIT plus systemic immunotherapy (group 1), or non-regimen therapies with 131I-8H9 cRIT (group 2). cRIT administration involved a 2mCi tracer of 124I- or 131I-8H9 with nuclear imaging and CSF sampling for dosimetry followed by 1 or 2 therapeutic injections up to 70 mCi 131I-8H9. Disease surveillance included serial MR brain/spine, MIBG, CT, and bone marrow evaluation. Data are presented as overall survival after detection of CNS metastasis. Results: 105 patients with CNS NB were evaluated;80 patients (76%) were treated (57 group 1, 23 group 2). Of the 25 patients who were not eligible for cRIT, survival averaged 8.6 months. Of 19 patients with radiographic evidence of disease at the time of cRIT, 7 (36%) demonstrated post cRIT radiographic improvement. At analysis, 45/80 (56%) patients were alive 4.8–152 months (median 58 months) after CNS metastasis, including 36 (45%) at 36 months and 23 (29%) > 60 months. Subgroup analyses of 131I-8H9–treated patients identified age at NB diagnosis (≤18 months), relapse restricted to CNS and group 1 status as factors positively correlated with survival. Conclusions: 76% of patients with CNS NB treated at MSK received 131I-8H9 cRIT, and approximately half completed multimodality CNS salvage regimen with 131I-8H9 cRIT. Despite advanced CNS involvement, over 50% of patients treated with 131I-8H9 cRIT are still alive and nearly 50% have survived at least 36 months. Clinical trial information: NCT00089245.

Abstract
2010 Background: Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) represents one of the most deadly central nervous system tumors of childhood with a median survival of less than 12 months. Convection-enhanced delivery (CED) has been recently hypothesized as a means for augmenting distribution of therapeutic agents within the brain stem. We conducted this study to evaluate CED in children with DIPG. Methods: We performed a standard 3+3 phase I, open-label, dose escalation study in patients with non-progressive DIPG 4 to 14 weeks post-completion or radiation therapy. Seven dose levels of a single injection of 124I-8H9 (range 0.25 to 4.0 mCi, 250 to 4000 mcl) were studied. Results: 25 children were treated. The average age at enrollment 8 years old (range 3-17). There was no dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and adverse events were limited to grade 1 or 2 (CTCAE v4.0). Estimations of distribution volumes were dose dependent and ranged from 1.5 to 20.1 cm3. The mean volume of distribution/volume of infusion (Vd/Vi) was 3.4 (SD 1.2). The mean lesion absorbed dose was 1527 rad/mCi. The mean tumor coverage on dose level 7 was 107%. Conclusions: CED in the brain stem of children with DIPG who were previously irradiated is a safe therapeutic strategy. Up to 4 mCi of 124I-8H9 was well tolerated. An infusion volume of 4000 mcl appears to be a reasonable single dose for good tumor coverage. PET-based dosimetry validates the conceptual basis for direct drug delivery. Based on our finding CED merits further exploration in early phase clinical trials for children with DIPG. Clinical trial information: NCT01502917.

Abstract
PURPOSE Codrituzumab, a humanized antibody against glypican-3, is highly expressed in HCC. A phase I study evaluated the combination with sorafenib in HCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a 3 + 3 design, codrituzumab was given intravenously in various doses with sorafenib 400 mg twice daily to patients with advanced HCC, age ≥18, ECOG 0-1, Child-Pugh A and B7, adequate organ functions, and no prior systemic therapy, with tumor assessment by RECIST 1.0 and safety by CTCAE 3.0. PK and pre, during, and post-therapy 124I radiolabeled codrituzumab PET scan imaging were performed. RESULTS 41 patients were enrolled: 2.5 mg/kg weekly (qw) (12), 5 mg/kg qw (12), 10 mg/kg qw (3), 1600 mg every 2 weeks (q2w) (6), and 1600 mg qw (7). Two drug limiting toxicities occurred: grade 3 hyponatremia at 5 mg/kg and grade 3 hyponatremia and hyperglycemia at 1600 mg q2w. Adverse events occurred in 80% of patients, including at least one ≥grade 3: ten (25%) increased AST, three (7.5%) increased ALT, and ten (25%) increased lipase. There were no responses and nine (25.7%) had stable disease. PK C max and AUCt of codrituzumab and sorafenib were comparable to single-agent data. Thirteen out of 14 patients showed 124I radiolabeled codrituzumab uptake in tumor. In all three patients who underwent a post-progression PET, glypican-3 remained expressed. CONCLUSION Codrituzumab plus sorafenib were tolerated at 1600 mg q2w and 400 mg bid, respectively, with no responses. Codrituzumab exerts selective distribution to HCC cells, and GPC3 does not show any down-regulation post-progression (NCT00976170).

Abstract
Abstract
Rationale: MVT-2163 (89Zr-DFO-5B1) — an anti-CA19.9 human monoclonal antibody formed via conjugation of the chelator desferoxamine (DFO) and radiolabeling with zirconium-89 (89Zr) — was recently reported to have excellent ability to delineate CA19-9 positive malignancies via PET imaging, including pancreatic cancer.(1) Additionally, preclinical studies have shown the antibody has antitumor properties alone(2) and, more recently, in combination with frontline chemotherapies such as nab-Paclitaxel and gemcitabine. Herein, we report the preclinical optimization and characterization of MVT-2163 that led to the recent approval of an IND application for first-in-human trials in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Methods: The conditions for appending the chelator DFO to MVT-5873 (5B1) were optimized by screening various combinations of reaction pH, stoichiometric ratios of chelate to antibody, buffer type, and incubation times. The optimized conjugation strategy was used to prepare clinical grade DFO-5B1 that was subsequently radiolabeled with 89Zr to yield MVT-2163 for use in human subjects. The biodistribution was determined in healthy female, athymic nude mice at 1, 24, 48, 72, and 120h via gamma counting of resected tissues and comparison to standards. The normal-organ radiation doses were estimated for the 70-kg Standard Adult anatomic model using the time-dependent organ activity concentrations and total-body activities, and the Standard Adult mean organ dose and effective dose were calculated using OLINDA. The stability of MVT-2163 in formulation buffer and in human serum at 37°C was assessed (24, 48, 96, 120, and 168h) via thin layer chromatography and size exclusion chromatography. Additionally, the remaining immunoreactive fraction was determined at the same time points using an in vitro cellular binding assay with BxPC3 cells.
Results: We found that the optimal conjugation strategy was to buffer exchange MVT-5873 into 100mM sodium bicarbonate buffer (pH9) prior to letting the DFO react at 32.5°C for 90m. Unincorporated DFO was removed by buffer exchanging the reaction mixture into 1M ammonium acetate (pH7) buffer. The final MVT-7686 (DFO-5B1) product was stored in long term storage at -80°C. Biodistribution of the MVT-2163 indicated tissue retentions that were within expected norms for a 89Zr-labeled antibody. The highest uptake at 120h in terms of percent injected dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g) was found in the bone, which is common for osteophilic radiometals such as 89Zr. Dosimetry calculations based on the biodistribution results predicted a total absorbed dose of 8.1 rem when accounting for the proposed accompanying low-dose CT scan. The absorbed doses to all organs were within acceptable limits at the proposed human study dose (5 mCi), and the absorbed dose in red marrow — which is often the dose-limiting factor — was within ranges predicted and observed with other 89Zr-radiolabeled antibodies in humans.
The radiochemical purity data indicate that the tracer remains intact in formulation buffer up to 120 hours. Cell binding assays performed with multiple lots of the same material showed that the immunoreactivity remains above 75% when stored up to 120h at room temperature, indicating exemplary stability. The stability and immunoreactivity were slightly lower when incubated in human serum at 37°C. However, the data shows that the immunoreactivity is maintained in human serum for more than up to 168h.
Conclusions: The stability studies in both formulation buffer and human serum indicate that MVT-2163 maintains sufficient radiochemical purity and immunoreactivity. The results of the reported studies support the proposed specifications and the excellent performance has resulted in MVT-2163 being accepted for first in human trials at MSKCC, which are set to begin in Q2 2016.

Abstract
18F-labeled 1-amino-3-fluorocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid (18F-fluciclovine) is a leucine analog radiotracer that depicts amino acid transport into cells. 18F-fluciclovine PET/CT visualizes malignancy, including prostate cancer, invasive ductal breast cancer, and invasive lobular breast cancer. Whether changes in 18F-fluciclovine avidity reflect changes in tumor burden resulting from treatment has not been shown. In this prospective clinical trial (clinical trials.gov: NCT01864083), changes in 18F-fluciclovine avidity after neoadjuvant therapy were compared to breast cancer therapy response, as determined by residual tumor burden on pathology, were evaluated. Methods: Twenty-four women with a new diagnosis of locally advanced invasive ductal breast cancer (n = 18) or invasive lobular breast cancer (n = 6) underwent 18F-fluciclovine PET/CT before and after the completion of neoadjuvant systemic therapy. SUVmax, SUVmean, metabolic tumor volume, and total lesion avidity were obtained for the primary breast tumor, axillary lymph nodes, and extraaxillary lymph nodes on each examination and corrected for background 18F-fluciclovine avidity. The relationship between changes in 18F-fluciclovine avidity and the percentage of reduction of tumor on pathology was assessed with the Spearman rank correlation. Results: The median decrease in the corrected SUVmax of the primary breast lesions was 99% (range, 33%-100%). The median reduction of tumor on pathology was 92% (range, 10%-100%). Changes in 18F-fluciclovine avidity were strongly correlated with the percentage of reduction of tumor on pathology (Spearman ρ, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.56-0.90; P < 0.001). Conclusion: Changes in 18F-fluciclovine avidity strongly correlated with the tumor response on pathology in this pilot study.

Abstract
We conducted a phase I dose-escalation study with 89Zr-desferrioxamine-IAB2M (89Zr-IAB2M), an anti-prostate-specific membrane antigen minibody, in patients with metastatic prostate cancer. METHODS Patients received 185 MBq (5 mCi) of 89Zr-IAB2M and Df-IAB2M at total mass doses of 10 (n = 6), 20 (n = 6), and 50 mg (n = 6). Whole-body and serum clearance, normal-organ and lesion uptake, and radiation absorbed dose were estimated, and the effect of mass escalation was analyzed. RESULTS Eighteen patients were injected and scanned without side effects. Whole-body clearance was monoexponential, with a median biologic half-life of 215 h, whereas serum clearance showed biexponential kinetics, with a median biologic half-life of 3.7 (12.3%/L) and 33.8 h (17.9%/L). The radiation absorbed dose estimates were 1.67, 1.36, and 0.32 mGy/MBq to liver, kidney, and marrow, respectively, with an effective dose of 0.41 mSv/MBq (1.5 rem/mCi). Both skeletal and nodal lesions were detected with 89Zr-IAB2M, most visualized by 48-h imaging. CONCLUSION 89Zr-IAB2M is safe and demonstrates favorable biodistribution and kinetics for targeting metastatic prostate cancer. Imaging with 10 mg of minibody mass provides optimal biodistribution, and imaging at 48 h after injection provides good lesion visualization. Assessment of lesion targeting is being studied in detail in an expansion cohort.

Abstract
Our objective was to determine whether imaging with a human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted PET tracer can detect HER2-positive metastases in patients with HER2-negative primary breast cancer. METHODS Patients with HER2-negative primary breast cancer and evidence of distant metastases were enrolled in an Institutional Review Board-approved prospective clinical trial. Archived pathologic samples from the patient's primary breast cancer were retested to confirm HER2-negative disease. Patients with confirmed HER2-negative primary breast cancer underwent 89Zr-trastuzumab PET/CT to screen for 89Zr-trastuzumab metastases. Metastases avid for 89Zr-trastuzumab by PET/CT were biopsied and pathologically examined to define HER2 status. Patients with pathologically proven HER2-positive metastases subsequently received off-protocol HER2-targeted therapy to evaluate treatment response. RESULTS Nine patients were enrolled, all of whom had pathologic retesting that confirmed HER2-negative primary breast cancer. Five demonstrated suggestive foci on 89Zr-trastuzumab PET/CT. Of these 5 patients, 2 had biopsy-proven HER2-positive metastases and went on to benefit from HER2-targeted therapy. In the other 3 patients, biopsy showed no evidence of HER2-positive disease, and their foci on 89Zr-trastuzumab PET were considered false-positive. CONCLUSION In this proof-of-concept study, we demonstrated that 89Zr-trastuzmab PET/CT detects unsuspected HER2-positive metastases in patients with HER2-negative primary breast cancer. Although these are only initial results in a small sample, they are a proof of the concept that HER2-targeted imaging can identify additional candidates for HER2-targeted therapy. More specific HER2-targeted agents will be needed for clinical use.

Initial Results of a Prospective Clinical Trial of 18F-Fluciclovine PET/CT in Newly Diagnosed Invasive Ductal and Invasive Lobular Breast Cancers. J Nucl Med 2016; 57:1350-6. [PMID: 26940766 DOI: 10.2967/jnumed.115.170456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2015] [Accepted: 02/17/2016] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
UNLABELLED (18)F-labeled 1-amino-3-fluorocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid ((18)F-fluciclovine) is a leucine analog PET/CT radiotracer that depicts amino acid transport into cells. Amino acid transport proteins have been shown to be upregulated in breast malignancies by microarray and immunohistochemical analysis, so we hypothesized that (18)F-fluciclovine may provide a novel method of visualizing breast cancer and now report a prospective clinical trial of (18)F-fluciclovine PET/CT in newly diagnosed advanced local invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC). METHODS Twenty-seven women with a new diagnosis of locally advanced IDC (n = 19) or ILC (n = 8) underwent PET/CT of the chest after intravenous administration of 370 MBq of (18)F-fluciclovine. The SUVmax, SUVmean, metabolic tumor volume, and total lesion avidity were obtained for the primary breast tumor, axillary lymph nodes, and extraaxillary lymph nodes. Sites of previously unsuspected malignancy were recorded and confirmed by pathology. Results of (18)F-fluciclovine PET/CT were compared with those of (18)F-FDG PET/CT, when available, using the concordance correlation coefficient. RESULTS All locally advanced breast cancers were (18)F-fluciclovine-avid. Of 21 patients with pathologically proven axillary nodal metastases, (18)F-fluciclovine-avid axillary nodes were seen in 20. (18)F-fluciclovine detected pathologically proven extraaxillary nodal metastases in 3 patients, including 2 previously unsuspected internal mammary nodes. Fourteen patients underwent (18)F-FDG PET/CT for comparison with (18)F-fluciclovine. Concordance for metabolic tumor volume between (18)F-fluciclovine and (18)F-FDG was strong (concordance correlation coefficient, 0.89; 95% confidence interval, 0.73-0.96), but concordance for SUVmax was weak (concordance correlation coefficient, 0.04; 95% confidence interval, -0.16-0.24). In patients with both modalities available (n = 14), primary ILCs (n = 4) demonstrated (18)F-fluciclovine avidity (median SUVmax, 6.1; range, 4.5-10.9) greater than (18)F-FDG avidity (median SUVmax, 3.7; range, 1.8-6.0). Primary IDCs (n = 10) had a lower (18)F-fluciclovine avidity (median SUVmax, 6.8; range, 3.6-9.9) than (18)F-FDG avidity (median SUVmax, 10; range, 3.3-43.5). CONCLUSION (18)F-fluciclovine PET/CT demonstrates potential for imaging of both IDC and ILC, including the detection of unsuspected extraaxillary nodal metastases. The low concordance for SUVmax between (18)F-fluciclovine and (18)F-FDG suggests that these tracers measure different biologic phenomena within the tumor. The apparently higher uptake of (18)F-fluciclovine in ILC requires confirmation in a larger cohort.

Abstract
287 Background: There is a pressing need for improved imaging biomarkers to identify disease distribution and response in both localized and advanced prostate cancer patients. PSMA-directed imaging is undergoing analytic and clinical validation for these contexts of use. IAB2M is an anti-PSMA recombinant minibody (Mb) derived from huJ591. We have previously reported on 28 pts imaged with IAB2M(Pandit-Taskar et al, SNM 2015). Here we report the lesion targeting and uptake (SUV) of the Mb and correlation with pathology of biopsied lesions on the full complement of the 38 pts examined in this trial. Methods: 38 pts with progressive metastatic PCa received escalating amounts of the Mb (16 pts at 10mg, 16 pts at 20mg, 6 pts at 50mg) in a phase I/IIa trial. All pts underwent standard imaging (SI) using CT, bone scintigraphy (BS), FDG PET, followed by imaging with 5 mCi of IAB2M. Whole body PET/CT scans were performed and evaluated for lesion targeting and SUVmax. Biopsy (bx) locations were selected by a consensus panel prioritized on the basis of: IAB2M & FDG positivity, IAB2M & FDG mismatch, and CT or BS positivity & any PET mismatch. Results: A total of 556 lesions (410 bone, 146 soft tissue) in 38 pts were detected by SI or IAB2M. In bone, IAB2M detected 344 lesions (83.9%), CT 209 (51%), BS 211 (51.5%), and FDG 109 (26.6%). For soft tissue, IAB2M detected 119 (81.5%), CT 83 (56.8%), and FDG 79 (54.1%). The SUV for bone lesions ranged from 2.1-60.4 for 10mg Mb, 1.7- 33 in 20mg Mb, and 2.3-17.5 in 50mg Mb. For soft tissue lesions, SUV range was 3.1-45.4, 2.1-20, and 1.9-13.8 respectively. 28 bxs (13 bone, 15 soft tissue) were obtained from 27 pts; 27 bxs were evaluable (1 was non-diagnostic). 20/27 (74.1%) bxs were pos for PCa; 20/24 (83.3%) IAB2M pos lesions were path pos and 3/3 (100%) IAB2M neg lesions were neg on path. All imaging and path correlated (true pos + true neg) in 23/27 (85.2%) bxs. Conclusions: PET imaging with IAB2M has demonstrated higher lesion detection when compared with SI. IAB2M’s high concordance with path suggests pos findings represent bx confirmed PCa. Further studies to examine biochemically recurrent prostate cancer are planned. Clinical trial information: NCT01923727.

Abstract
PURPOSE Standard imaging for assessing osseous metastases in advanced prostate cancer remains focused on altered bone metabolism and is inadequate for diagnostic, prognostic, or predictive purposes. We performed a first-in-human phase I/II study of (89)Zr-DFO-huJ591 ((89)Zr-J591) PET/CT immunoscintigraphy to assess performance characteristics for detecting metastases compared with conventional imaging modalities (CIM) and pathology. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Fifty patients with progressive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancers were injected with 5 mCi of (89)Zr-J591. Whole-body PET/CT scans were obtained, and images were analyzed for tumor visualization. Comparison was made to contemporaneously obtained bone scintigraphy and cross-sectional imaging on a lesion-by-lesion basis and with biopsies of metastatic sites. RESULTS Median standardized uptake value for (89)Zr-J591-positive bone lesions (n = 491) was 8.9 and for soft-tissue lesions (n = 90), it was 4.8 (P < 0.00003). (89)Zr-J591 detected 491 osseous sites compared with 339 by MDP and 90 soft-tissue lesions compared with 124 by computed tomography (CT). Compared with all CIMs combined, (89)Zr-J591 detected an additional 99 osseous sites. Forty-six lesions (21 bone and 25 soft tissue) were biopsied in 34 patients; 18 of 19 (89)Zr-J591-positive osseous sites and 14 of 16 (89)Zr-J591-positive soft tissue sites were positive for prostate cancer. The overall accuracy of (89)Zr-J591 was 95.2% (20 of 21) for osseous lesions and 60% (15 of 25) for soft-tissue lesions. CONCLUSIONS (89)Zr-J591 imaging demonstrated superior targeting of bone lesions relative to CIMs. Targeting soft-tissue lesions was less optimal, although (89)Zr-J591 had similar accuracy as individual CIMs. This study will provide benchmark data for comparing performance of proposed prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeting agents for prostate cancer.

Abstract
Noninvasive in vivo imaging of androgen receptor (AR) levels with positron emission tomography (PET) is becoming the primary tool in prostate cancer detection and staging. Of the potential (18)F-labeled PET tracers, (18)F-FDHT has clinically shown to be of highest diagnostic value. We demonstrate the first automated synthesis of (18)F-FDHT by adapting the conventional manual synthesis onto the fully-automated ELIXYS radiosynthesizer. Clinically-relevant amounts of (18)F-FDHT were synthesized on ELIXYS in 90 min with decay-corrected radiochemical yield of 29±5% (n=7). The specific activity was 4.6 Ci/µmol (170 GBq/µmol) at end of formulation with a starting activity of 1.0 Ci (37 GBq). The formulated (18)F-FDHT yielded sufficient activity for multiple patient doses and passed all quality control tests required for routine clinical use.
