Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Dosimetry Group

Arm Description

Normal Volunteers will receive a single intravenous injection of 8 mCi ± 20% (6.4-9.6 mCi) of the PET radiotracer 68Ga-Galmydar. They will undergo whole-body PET/CT imaging at three-time points, immediately post [68Ga]Galmydar injection, and at 2 hours and 4 hours after injection. Serum chemistries, complete blood count, EKG, vital signs, and physical examination will performed before injection and at the completion of the examinations.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Organ Dosimetry
On whole body PET/CT, regions of interest are drawn on the liver, spleen, kidney, lumbar vertebrae and left ventricle of the heart. Average organ dose is measured and compared. Organ radiation dose is measured and reported in rad/mCi.
Biodistribution
The organ with the highest radiation dose in rad/mCi is determined to be the dose-critical organ. The organ showing the largest dose is the gallbladder wall.
Total Effective Dose of the Radiotracer
Total Effective Dose of the radiotracer is calculated using ICRP-60 organ weights and is reported in rem/mCi.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Clinically Significant Change in Blood Pressure.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is a single center, early phase 1 clinical imaging study designed to assess the dosimetry of 68Ga-Galmydar for PET/CT imaging.
Detailed Description
The objective is to evaluate dosimetry, biodistribution, safety, and imaging characteristics following a single 68Ga-Galmydar injection in normal healthy volunteers. Healthy adult normal volunteers (n=8, 4 males; 4 females) will undergo whole-body imaging (dosimetry group). Healthy adult normal volunteers (n=8, 4 males; 4 females) will receive a single intravenous Ga-68 Galmydar administration of 8 mCi ± 20% (6.4-9.6 mCi) with a mass of ≤ 10 µg followed by whole-body PET/CT imaging.
