Integrin Alpha-v-Beta and [18F]-R01-MG-F2 PET/CT in Measuring Response in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer and Healthy Volunteers

Trial ID or NCT#

NCT02683824

Status

Purpose

This pilot clinical trial studies the use of integrin alpha-v-beta [18F]-R01-MG-F2 Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) and Positron Emission Tomography-Magnetic Resonance Imaging in (PET/MRI) in measuring response in patients with pancreatic cancer and healthy volunteers. Integrins, such as integrin alpha-v-beta-6 (avb6), are a family of membrane receptors that are overexpressed on the cell surface of pancreatic cancers. [18F]-R01-MG-F2 targets avb6, which may improve early detection of and better stratify treatment options for patients with pancreatic cancer.

Official Title

Pancreatic cancer subjects: 1. Participant must be 18 years or older at the time of radiotracer administration 2. Provides written informed consent 3. Suspected or established diagnosis of pancreatic cancer based on any radiographic scan or pathology and who is scheduled for surgery OR Biopsy proven diagnosis of pancreatic cancer who is no longer a surgical candidate
Exclusion Criteria:
  1. Healthy volunteers: 1. Participant is less than 18 year-old 2. Pregnant or breast feeding women. 3. Patients who are not likely to comply with the protocol requirements. Pancreatic cancer subjects: 1. Participant is pregnant or breast-feeding 2. Participant is not able to comply with the study procedures 3. Participant has serious uncontrolled concurrent medical illness that would limit compliance with study requirements 4. Metallic implants (contraindicated for MRI) 5.
