Trial Title: 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.

Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria: - suspected or confirmed untreated thymoma patients - signed written consent. Exclusion Criteria: - pregnancy - breastfeeding - known allergy against Pentixafor - any medical condition that in the opinion of the investigator,may - significantly interfere with study compliance.
