About this trial

Assessment of the relevance of a new medical imaging test, FAPI PET, which could detect progression or relapse earlier than other tests currently available. Ultimately, it could enable early forms of pancreatic cancer to be detected and used for screening.

In addition to the usual examinations prescribed, FAPI PET scans will be repeated at several points in the treatment process.

All study patients must first have been included in the Homing cohort (NCT 04363983, APHP promotion). Clinical characteristics, judgement criteria and results of biological or imaging examinations carried out as part of this cohort will be shared.

Patient follow-up and participation in the study ends when conventional imaging (CT and MRI) shows disease progression, relapse or death.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

EFS: Event Free Survival

Time from diagnosis to disease progression, recurrence or death (EFS: Event Free Survival). Radiomic features from the initial FAPI evaluation will be analyzed using univariable and multivariable survival models to detect and quantify statistical associations between feature values and EFS. A multivariable model will be proposed and will serve as basis for the estimation of screening sensitivity.

Time frame
12 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Adverse Event during 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT exams

Description the safety profile of 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT exams

Time frame
12 months
2

Evaluation of the tumor burden 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT versus 18F-FDG PET/CT

Comparison of 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT (Comparison of the tumor burden using the total FAP expression tumor volume/TFTV and the total metabolic tumor volume/TMTV\*, respectively)

Time frame
