A Pilot Study of Total-body PET Using FDA-approved Radiotracers Beyond 18F-FDG
Prostate Cancer, Breast Cancer, Neuroendocrine Tumors
About this trial
This is an interventional basic science trial for Prostate Cancer
Eligibility Criteria
18F-PSMA (n=3)
Inclusion criteria:
- Men >18 yo with suspected prostate cancer metastasis who are candidates for initial definitive therapy or with suspected recurrence based on elevated serum PSA level
Prior imaging study (CT, and/or MRI and/or Bone scan and/or Fluciclovine scan) suspicious for metastatic disease, obtained not earlier than 4 months from the research scan date.
68Ga DOTATATE (n=3)
Inclusion Criteria:
- Persons > 18 yo suspicious for or diagnosed with somatostatin receptor positive neuroendocrine tumors (NETs)
- Prior DOTATATE PET/CT scan suspicious for tumor obtained not earlier than 4 months from the research scan date.
Exclusion Criteria:
Recent administration of long-acting somatostatin analogs
18F-FES (n=3):
- Persons > 18 yo with recurrent or metastatic breast cancer
- Prior imaging study (CT, and/or US, and/or MRI, and/or bone scan and/or FDG PET/CT) suspicious for tumor, obtained not earlier than 4 months from the research scan date.
- Biopsy proven ER-positive breast cancer (any location) in the past 6 months
Exclusion Criteria:
• History of ER modulators and ER down-regulators such as tamoxifen and fulvestrant in the past 8 and 28 weeks, respectively
Exclusion Criteria for all participants:
- Adults unable to consent
- Pregnant/lactating persons
- Prisoners
- Unable to lie supine for up to 90 minutes at different timepoints in the PET scanner
- Uncontrolled claustrophobia

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Total-body PET scan
All participants will receive a dynamic PET scan for up to 90 minutes. This will be followed by two 30 minutes static PET scans at 3 hours +/-20 minutes and 6 hours +/-20 minutes post injection. Subjects injected with 18F-PSMA or 18F-FES will receive a 40 minute scan at 9 hours +/-20 minutes post injection.
