About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

Eligibility Criteria

30 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

Patients with radiologically FIGO stage IIIB/IIIC EOC based on the conventional CT scan who are:

  • scheduled to undergo primary cytoreductive surgery and

    1. in whom EOC is histologically proven, or
    2. in whom EOC is cytologically suspected and a serum CA125/CEA ratio > 25 is found

or

  • treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and are scheduled to undergo interval cytoreductive surgery and

    1. in whom EOC is histologically proven, or
    2. in whom EOC is cytologically suspected and a serum CA125/CEA ratio > 25 was found before NACT
    3. and with radiologically FIGO stage IIIB/IIIC EOC based on the response evaluation CT scan after NACT

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Women younger than 30 years of age (in accordance with the guidelines of the Netherlands Commission on Radiation Dosimetry [23], as the total radiation dose will be 7.2 mSv)
  2. Patients who previously underwent primary laparotomy and in whom complete or optimal cytoreduction was not considered feasible.
  3. Contraindication for PET (pregnancy, lactating or severe claustrophobia)
  4. Thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 100 x 10^9/L) and/or INR > 2
  5. Impaired renal function (defined as eGFR < 50 mL/1.73 m2)
  6. Impaired liver function (ALT, AST or total bilirubin > 3x upper limit of normal)
  7. Clinically significant abnormalities on ECG and/or clinically laboratory test
  8. Inability to tolerate lying supine for the duration of a PET/CT examination (~110 minutes)
  9. Patients with concomitant malignancy (except basal cell carcinoma of the skin) or any condition that in the opinion of the investigators could potentially jeopardize the health status of the patient
  10. Patients not able to comply with the study procedures
  11. Patients who did not give informed consent

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

[18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET/CT scan

Arm Description

Patients with FIGO stage IIIB/IIIC epithelial ovarian cancer, 185 MBq of [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Tolerability of the [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET tracer
To assess the tolerability of the [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET tracer vital signs will be recorded every 15 minutes starting directly before administration and continued up to two hours after dosing. The endpoint for this study is the number of patients whose vital signs stayed within a normal range of their baseline.
Arterial plasma input curve of the [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate tracer
Blood samples will be collected to determine the arterial plasma input curve of the tracer.
Pharmacokinetic distribution of the [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate tracer
Blood samples will be collected to determine the pharmacokinetic distribution of the tracer.
Safety of the [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET tracer
Total number of AEs and SAEs that occur during the observation period.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Sensitivity and specificity
Sensitivity and specificity of the FR-targeted PET/CT scan for the detection of metastatic EOC lesions. Postoperative histopathology will serve as the gold standard.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The pre-operative assessment of intra-abdominal tumor load in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unreliable with standard imaging modalities. The use of tumor targeted imaging, such as folate receptor (FR)-targeted positron emission tomography (PET) imaging could aid in the preoperative assessment of metastatic tumor load. This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of the [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET tracer and to assess the sensitivity and specificity of a [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET/CT scan for the preoperative detection of intra-abdominal metastatic lesions in patients with advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer.

Primary Purpose
Diagnostic
Study Phase
Phase 1
Interventional Study Model
Single Group Assignment
Model Description
185 MBq of [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET tracer will be intravenously administered to 15 patients with radiologically advanced stage EOC who are scheduled to undergo cytoreductive surgery, after which an FR-targeted PET/CT will be made. FR-targeted PET/Ct results will be compared to the intraoperative findings, postoperative histopathology (gold standard) and the conventional CT scan.
