Application of 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT for Thymoma
NCT ID:
NCT06086327
Condition:
Thymoma
Conditions: Official terms:
Thymoma
Thymus Neoplasms
Study type:
Interventional
Study phase:
Early Phase 1
Overall status:
Recruiting
Study design:
Allocation:
N/A
Intervention model:
Single Group Assignment
Primary purpose:
Diagnostic
Masking:
None (Open Label)
Intervention:
Intervention type:
Drug
Intervention name:
68Ga-Pentixafor
Description:
Intravenous injection of one dosage of 74-185 MBq(2-5 mCi) 68Ga-Pentixafor. Tracer doses
of 68Ga- Pentixafor will be used to image lesions of thymoma by PET/CT.
Arm group label:
68Ga-Pentixafor, PET/CT
Other name:
68Ga-CXCR4
Summary:
Chemokine receptor CXCR4 was expressed in T cells and CXCR4-targeting molecular imaging-
68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT could be a promising technique to evaluate the extent of thymoma
with higher accuracy. This prospective study is going to investigate whether metabolic
characterization by 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT may be superior for diagnosis, distinguish
evaluation for thymoma.
Detailed description:
Thymoma is 1 rare type of tumor developed on the thymic epithelium; patients with thymoma
also might have myasthenia gravis (MG). Because of the scarcity and complexity of
MG-associated thymoma, its pathogenesis and etiology still remain unclear nowadays. The
expression of C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) is absent or low in most healthy
tissues but highly expressed in various types of tumors. CXCR4 might contribute to the
clinical cancer progression, and CXCR4 could be a valuable prognostic biomarker in the
therapy of MG-associated thymoma.
