Abstract
PURPOSE: This pilot study aimed to prove the complementary value of a novel Gallium-labeled heterodimeric peptide, Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD, in detection and evaluation of tumors with somatostatin receptor subtype 2 or integrin αvβ3 overexpression, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), neuroendocrine tumor (NET), and neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). METHODS: With institute review board approval and written informed consent, 32 patients with pathologically diagnosed lung cancer (18 NSCLC, 14 SCLC) and 12 patients with neuroendocrine neoplasm (8 NET, 4 NEC) patients were recruited to undergo Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD PET/CT. For comparison, the NSCLC patients also underwent Ga-NOTA-TATE PET/CT, the SCLC patients underwent Ga-NOTA-RGD PET/CT, and the neuroendocrine neoplasm patients underwent F-FDG PET/CT within 3 days. The maximum standardized uptake value (SUV) of the primary tumor (T) and mean SUV of the blood pool (B) were measured, and the T/B ratios were calculated for comparison. RESULTS: In the primary tumors of NSCLC, the T/B ratios of Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD were significantly higher than those of Ga-NOTA-TATE (4.54 ± 3.00 versus 4.10 ± 2.83, P = 0.0058). In SCLC, the T/B ratios of Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD were significantly higher than those of Ga-NOTA-RGD (6.06 ± 6.09 versus 2.65 ± 1.19, P = 0.0344). In NET, the T/B ratios of Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD were 36.13 ± 33.84, significantly higher than those of F-FDG (2.91 ± 1.71, P = 0.0234). In NEC, there were no significant difference between the T/B ratios of Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD (4.80 ± 0.85) and those of F-FDG (3.56 ± 0.74, P = 0.1833). CONCLUSIONS: This proof-of-concept study preliminarily demonstrates the efficacy of the dual targeting Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD PET/CT in the evaluation of lung cancer and neuroendocrine neoplasm in a single scan.
