About this trial

This study investigates fluorine-18-AlphaVBeta6-BP (\[18F\]-αvβ6-BP) as a Positron Emission (PET) imaging agent in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases. Investigators hypothesize that \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/Computed Tomography (CT) is a sensitive tool for disease assessment in patients with metastatic NSCLC, including those with brain metastases.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Men and women age >18 yrs

Biopsy proven NSCLC with brain metastases (treated or untreated)

Life-expectancy of ≥3 months in the opinion of the treating physician

Available archival tumor tissue (excisional, core, or fine needle aspiration (FNA) is acceptable). Tissue from a metastatic site is preferred when available.

Disqualifiers

Pregnant or lactating women

Prisoners

Concurrent malignancy of a different histology that could confound imaging interpretation

Patients who cannot undergo PET/CT scanning because of weight limits(>350lbs)

Trial design

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

[18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging compared to immunohistochemistry

Standard uptake value (SUV) values from \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT will be compared to immunohistochemistry (IHC) αvβ6 staining of archival tissue to assess the sensitivity of \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT to detect αvβ6 positive metastasis in NSCLC

Time frame
Up to six months

Secondary outcomes

1

Comparison of standard-of-care MRI and [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging

Detection of lesions with \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP will be compared to the number of lesions identified during standard-of-care MRI imaging

Time frame
Up to six months
2

Comparison of standard-of-care [18F]-FDG PET/CT and [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging

SUVmax values obtained during standard-of-care FDG/PET will be compared to SUVmax values obtained from \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging

Time frame
Up to six months
3

Comparison of standard-of-care MRI brain and [18F]-FDG PET/CT and [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT imaging post treatment

Lesion response will be assessed based on standard-of-care MRI images, \[18F\]-FDG PET/CT and \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/CT post treatment.

Time frame
Up to six months
